Description
Model: DesireLate one afternoon when the sun was fairly low in the sky, I took adorable Des around the neighbourhood to shoot in various random urban settings (including places which turned out to be right in front of people's houses)
I personally think that some of these pictures are among my best work. I hope you like them!

This is by far my favourite piece in your gallery. There is something about it that makes me smile, that draws me to look at it for longer.
Black and white works perfectly for this image, it causes you to become drawn to to model's facial expression, and the carefree emotion it gives off, rather than her surroundings. The focus seems a tad off, her cleavage in focus while her face is not, but i don't find it distracting. The softness of her features gives the image movement.
I like the angle. The model appears to be on top of the world here, looking up, smiling - it's a very happy image.
The background, although i'm well aware by the way you've shot this was not really to be taken into consideration, helps the image in my opinion. The wall on the left hand side of the image almost gives the model a frame. She fits perfectly with the rule of thirds, her face even more perfectly aligned within them. To describe this image as eyecatching just isn't enough!
I really enjoy your B&W work, i think you should make more of it!

The title suits the photo very well. There is a feeling of remembrance here. Her carefree posture and happy expression lead me to believe it was a good time she was remembering. The graffiti adds a lot of character to the background and dates it a little, in my opinion. Black and white was a good choice for this piece, I think. The angle and capture of the model and the setting is spot on, and I think you should be proud of yourself on this one especially.
