Fashion Shoot C&C Please!

[AtuspidsGoddess]

I did a shoot for a friend to showcase her fashion line...finally the opportunity to use my sb600s for the first time!

As a model, damn sexy.

As a photo, would like to see a little more contrast and a different location. The back room in your house isnt too flattering lol.

What did you do to her eyes? Did you add catchlights?

Also that plant with that cheap plastic pot and table gotta go.

=) The designer wanted a livingroom type setting...we did set up the backdrops for other shots as well.

Nope didn't add any catchlights...I had a reflector right underneath her to help with under shadows...but I did dodge part of the bottom to give it some depth...I kinda like that look, but do understand others won't...personal choice I guess! =)

But then I guess if that makes the catch lights brighter...in a sense I guess I did add more catchlights?...haha...

I like that look too... But it's obvious you did something to her eyes because the lighting (other than her eyes) of the image in general is a little flat. I think if you added some contrast or curves to the image that will have the lighting match the eyes

Hmmm good thought....let me play with it a bit...and repost...

No. 2

Would work better in landscape, with her ams and leggs showing too

yup.

and warm it up a bit unless you were going for a blue tone...

The head shadow on the wall of #2 is distracting, but the sharp corner of the picture frame is a killer. You also have a distracting shadow caused by the forward leg. The crop at/near the joints is not the best idea.

She is very pretty and I like her playful expression.

Funny thing on the blue tone...haha...I was going for that with this pic, not because I'm a cool colors freak...which I am...but because the wall was actually white when I shot this photo...but it came out with a slightly light blue tone to it in the shot...which I enhanced because I thought it made the colors pop and her/outfit pop more? Also, I think the original lighting did not come out properly exposed with this one...so I had to fix it in PP. Here is the original for comparison.

I definitely need to work on getting rid of my shadows...I did have the reflector at camera left...at her feet facing her to try and help with that...should I have had it positioned differently? Or what would have worked better?
