18 year old Yvonne - Her 1st Modeling Experience

Trever1t · Jan 24, 2013

A young beauty pageant contestant, Yvonne jumped at the chance to let me try some outdoor lighting practice. A single SB-800 with a plastic diffuser (Lumiquest SBIII) on a mini Manfrotto is on her left and I used the sun to rim light.

Really like the last one. She did great!

The last shot is $$$$$. Very nice. The other 2 are also good but I'd like for her to be closer to the camera.

I wanted more environment in the frame in the top one, the temple doors, etc.

There are some issues here.

#1 - fix the alignment. You can see where it gets off by the dot looking stuff above the door.

#2 - its crooked. If you are going to use an off type of angle you need to exaggerate it more or it just looks like a mistake.

#3 - I like where you were going here. Nice stock kind of pose but she looks stiff. Models need to be relaxed for the shot to look really good. Plus her turning her torso more towards you would have helped. here you have a side profile going on which should mostly be avoided. If she had placed her left leg on the ground it would have forced her to turn like I am suggesting. The eye contact could have been better. She looks like she is looking away from the camera. The others had good eye contact.
