Liliana & Sara

[Trever1t]

They're not related but could pass for sisters. Liliana in white, Sara in yellow. 18 + 23 respectively. Simple split light, main left fill right.

Liliana has a shadow on her face that is really bugging me. Also.. maybe try to smooth out the bra underwire showing through on Sara.

I agree with frommrstomommy and would like to add that there are some stray strands of hair on Sara that I would have healed or cloned away, especially the one appearing to come out of her back, just below her armpit. Liliana also has some distracting hair on her right arm, near her shoulder. I'm not a fan of the background - too plain. It makes me wonder what the picture is all about. It's not telling me a story.

I don't think I've critiqued any of your shots yet because I'm not sure I'm all that qualified. I am, however, as qualified as the next guy to share my "woots," but there always seems to be plenty of that and not enough of real critique. So, I'll keep the panting to myself and stick to offering my honest opinion on the quality of the photographs instead.

Lovely photo, lovely models, thanks for sharing.

1. I agree with the posts about the shadow on Liliana's face, the underwire on Sara and the hair near her armpit as well.

2. Here are a couple of things that I think are really important to point out on this shot. I can't tell you the number of times I see shots of two (or more models), they may be stunningly attractive but it's as if they are unaware of each other...almost as if one of them was photoshopped in to the shot. Instead, these two aren't separate elements in the same photo. No, I don't mean the similar facial/skin tone/hair appearances (though that's nice). You've got two people who have some level of interaction, they don't look posed or separate from each other. In fact, if you ignored some of the physical similarities, you'd still wonder if they were sisters or roomies. Even if they weren't touching (arms around each other), there's still an acknowledgement of each other's presence. The second thing that really jumps out at me is how you've done a fine job at creating mirror images without exactly mirroring. The dresses look similar but aren't exactly. The two models look like they could be sisters but not identical. Jewelry has a similar feel (as they have the same tastes) but aren't copies of each other. Hair....pretty close (and mirrors each other) but again, it doesn't look staged (like you went to a stylist and said "give these two identical do's!"). If you had two models who mirrored each other exactly (from dress color to jewelry to hair length to expression) it would initially be cool and then look very fake. While it's obviously a studio shot, many people will see this and wonder if it's a spontaneous portrait of two sisters. Or two roomies.

Love it.

To be honest I was jamming to get one out of both of them last night. I pretty quick edit and a simple studio set.

Anybody else?

It bothers me that your background and floor are different whites

 

[FITBMX]

I don't think I've seen one of your white background photos before, I like them!

 

[vintagesnaps]

I agree about the shadow on the face, and the hair strands, especially in the first one. I feel like I see that a lot, that as the subjects change poses the hair moves and even though it's lovely, there ends up being strands hanging or sticking out in odd ways (especially if it's dark against light backgrounds). Nice expressions, seem natural and like they're comfortable, relaxed and having fun.

Wut? I didn't notice anything wrong. Moar!
