Diana Pt. 2 - Beauty shots? (C&C)

[GeorgieGirl]

e.rose - Here are my comments:

a) Nice job!

b) For #1 and #2 I would have liked to see a little bit of white of the far eyes. Particularly in #2.

c) For #3 I'd like to see a little tighter crop to balance the ears for each side. But that might mean that the left eyelash gets clipped?

Really like the color of her skin in these shots.

Very nice, Emily!

I think you need some more reflected light on her back in #2.

Nice shots, love the lighting and simplicity. Yes the makeup is crazy but that's what makeup artists do

IMO...... #2 is a complete miss. Firstly, her eyes and particularly her right eye are set way too far in the corner of the sockets and look manic to put it nicely. Secondly, her shoulder is set square to the lens which leaves little foundation to support her head. The dorsal surface of her scapula looks as if she has her boobs reversed. Tertiary, the rotation of her neck is causing a great deal of tension which is causing the rather apparent crease in her neck. Lastly, the expression of her mouth is screaming how uncomfortable this position is for her.

Okay, so with that out of the way...... your lighting rocks. #1 is awesome. Great example of short lighting and a dynamic pose with the tilt of the shoulders.

Thanks for sharing. :thumbsup:

You did an awesome job! What was your lighting set-up?

These are GORGEOUS beauty shots. Model position could have been tweaked a little bit but nothing major, great job. these are nice portfilio worthy shots.

She's got some eyebrows on her...they would look good on my Camaro as racing stripes over the rear fender wheel-flares...

No offense, but the eyelashes look ridiculous...maybe if they were selectively colored they'd look better...but then again, in three months, this look will look 1980's, so...whateva...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHH ?!!$!@#!@#!@#.


Seriously , just crowl back into your cave.
You should have just stfu on this one ! These are outstanding photos and i am pretty sure NOTHING you ever done before come close to this.

And shouldn't selective coloring be left only for those pictures of little kids kissing?

I am not sure if it was another of his sarcasms comment but using selective coloring on the eyelashes only, especially on a beauty shot for a MUA would be totally stupid....

Looks okay too me. This would have been a good time to apply a real plasticy feel.

Really love number one. The lighting is delish, number two I am not picked by her eye and the weird contortion to her body. Neckline is awkwardish. Number 3 is cool. Nice shoot Emily. WTG.

Mostly these are really pretty shots. Here are some thoughts that came to my mind, though: hairlight would be great, her eyes are a little too centered in the first one, IMO and especially in the third one her eyes look really unnatural with no veins visible. I don't think they should be removed completely, just lightened a bit if they look too red. I'd also like if the third one was shot from a straight angle (I don't know how to express this in English..), so the other ear would show also and it would seem more 'symmetrical' and would suit better with the crop.
