Default Sexy Alecia

I just joined this forum and I want to give it a try and see how this forum turns out.

Allow me to introduce myself with my first post. This is from a photo shoot I did a few weeks ago.

Comments and critiques welcome.



Thanks!

I like it...
At first I thought the pose was a bit "stiff", but after looking at it for a while..the pose is good..the expression goes with the pose too..Only other Critic..on the "might change this" side, is the blown out hair and upper shoulder....It does attract me to the face, but it is a bit bright, and thus, distracting, to me.

Wow! I love the photo. It is sharp and the background is reat. So often, the women are tanned and it is refreshing to see a woman who isn't afraid to model and not be tan.

Also, you did a great job lighting her as even the black heels and her black corset are separated from the black background.

I am looking forward to more. Please add some albums.

Thanks.

Glad you like the image. As far as the hair light and shoulder being blown out as you called them, it's a matter of preference.

Thank you for your critique, I appreciate it.

Thank you!
Looks like you were able to embrace what I was going for when I shot the image.

I'll share more as time permits. Happy shooting.

Welcome... Glad to have you with us.

In the image the thing that bothers me most is the difference in the skin tones between her legs and the rest of the body, as well as the hair being blown out a bit. I agree the blown out hair can be a preference but in print it tends to not look great. Perhaps there is more detail there then what we can see in a image this small.

Anyway, great work and welcome to the gang.

Scott

I like pose and sharpness of the model. This picture has great contrast which suites the models skin type. The back ground color is also a good contrast, but the background somehow makes the whole of the image feel a bit flat, the model pops out, but feels flat, is this intentional? All in all I really like the image and would like to hear back from you. I may be a graphic artist, but I am just getting into the photography work.

Thank-you for posting this image.
