Description
"the photographer will loosely prepare..." these friggin' descriptions just floor me!i'm not a boob guy.
that said ... once i was able to stop fumbling with my equipment (read: cameras) and focus on salmas face ...
well ...
honestly, they are large. like really fucking large.
'twas hard to focus on her face.
but ... her face is so lovely.
so is she.
we were backstage with robert towne who was showing his movie -- a movie that i can't remember the name -- and i asked her if may make some photographs in b/w.
she was totally into it.
so ... once i got past her obvious attributes ...
i made a few.
that's what's so nice about leica glass ... you really don't need a lot of light to make something interesting.
not only that ... but ... i didn't want a typical photo of her.
she was on a couch in the green room ... i backed up enough for a higher than normal position ...
and made this one.
leica mp. leica apo 75/2.0 summicron aspherical. 1/60th at f/2.0. ilford delta 400 (plus 2 at 1600) for some lovely grain.
this is a scan ... you should see the fibre print ... my God.

you should scan the print, cause this scan is just very low contrast and basically, not very good. technically that is.

Salma Hayek is so freaking pretty. Even without all the makeup and crap they make her wear on set, she's pretty. Nice shot.

Salma is lovely. She's gonna rule even when she turns 70. Just like Sophia Loren. The photo is great, but the negscan sucks a bit (i see your lab uses the same setup that mine does, but they can screw up a good shot the same way too), i bet that fiber print rules. Mmmmmm...

I would seriously go heterosexual for this amazing actress! She is, to me, the most beautiful woman that will ever be. Such a stunning photo of her, though I doubt it is possible to take a bad one. Ever!

Whoa...
I've never really noticed it until but her face looks a lot like my mother's, except her lips are a bit thinner.
That's good new for me! xD

Well what I like most in your shots of famous people, that they are so natural, like rest humans, they have no hollywood unatural shining. Real soul lives in your photos.

ah, I love her since 'Frida' movie! I saw her also in other pictures, in commercials, also on many photos -- she is so absolutely perfectly perfect (like many other movie stars)! so... unhuman. and on this photo!... she is a real woman. real human. now I love her face MORE. I feel I could even love her. I bet she has a wonderful, warm soul. Her eyes are so powerful! I'm glad I see wrinkles. I'm glad she's real! I'm deeply moved by this

I totally love this woman!
She is the sexist latin actress in Hollywood ( a personal bias)
She looks great for a woman in her early 40's.
Once again you ROCK man!
