Boy Funk- Editorial Spread

DanOstergren · May 9, 2014

These images mark a huge moment in my career, as this is my first editorial spread to be published in a fashion magazine. I've been published in magazines before this, but my dream since I first picked up a camera has been to be published in a fashion magazine, and now I can check that one off my list of goals! It was published in a 6 page spread (there are others from the spread not pictured here) Next dream: cover of Vogue Italia!
The model is a very flamboyant rap artist in Portland Oregon.

I'm aware of the blown highlights and clipped shadows; in hindsight I could have used a reflector. D:

Thanks for all of the comments! Critique is welcome as well.

Also, why were these moved? I wasn't paid to take these shots, so they don't qualify as professional, and even if they were they are still shots of a person. I see people post client shoots all the time in the People Photography forum that don't get moved even though they qualify as professional, so why do mine not belong there?
