it's such an intriging facial expression. At first glance i thought it was a period hairstyle from the 50's, that and the lighting so reminiscent of that era drew me to to this! nice work, thanks.

Wonderful Photograph. The style takes us back to the classy part of the late 50's and early 60's when people dressed up to go out. Put me to mind of the late Grace Kelly.

Her intensity pulls you in... and the darkness of the portrait makes your eye linger, slowly moving over every inch of her features. A perfect sense of intimacy.

I love how this is lit! Two suggestions: a simpler necklace with cleaner lines and less eye makeup (or a slightly different angle) to eliminate the wide-eyed stare effect.

She does look like a jazz singer...I thought that too. Lovely model, the necklace is too distracting, pearls would have been classier, but maybe I'm just an old fashioned guy!

I love looking through your gallery. I love how you can do ANYTHING. Just looking through it shows how flexible, open minded and diverse you are. I commend photographers who try something different and new. Good for you. This is beautiful.

Love,

That view on the viewer is really strange. After some seconds it get's a little bit frightening. I like the lighting. You can recognise almost each details. I like though it makes me scared

RoieG [2005-10-08 16:59:35 +0000 UTC]

very nice low-key portrait
I would prefer it if the camera was a bit more to the left so her location in the frame was a little to on the right for less tight feeling.
That's of course unless the neckless is an important subject, and than I would put more ephasis on it with lighting and higher posture of the head.
One more tiny suggestion, it would be nice if you placed even a small slave flash to create white spot on her right eye as well as the left it will give better presence to to other eye that is lost in the shaddow.

anyway, it is a very nice photo and I like it



best regards,
Roie

the tightness is what i think lends itself to the intimacy.
i agree about the hint of light in the other eye for sure though.

maxyme In reply to lorrainemd [2005-10-08 18:08:05 +0000 UTC]

yeah I agree with Roie, her right eye in the shadow create a weird impression. I think I would have tried to move her head rather the flash a slave but it would have been a different shot so who knows!
Exept that, I like this picture very much (but I must admit her look doesn't look quite intimate in my opinion, but still a nice picture )
