Description
This is my friend from high school, Tobias. He's currently in the opera program at Juilliard. I decided that I wanted to change the dismal balance of my bank account by taking headshots for the theater majors at my school, and I asked him if he would like to exchange a new set of free headshots for helping me build a portfolio to show potential clients. Thankfully, he had time to meet with me and I got some great shots.This is one of my favorites because I was trying to use the posts to create a frame around his face to draw the eye in. Since the most important thing in a headshot is the face, I thought this would be an interesting aspect to add to the "traditional" headshot. Critique would be nice on this one.

I think I find the other version of this one more appealing. I know you were going for the whole framing bit, but this one makes me feel as though Tobias is trapped and wants to be free from jail or something along those lines.

I don't know, I kind of like this one. His hands make me feel like he's not escaping, but he's "squeezing" the posts--and the shot--tighter in to focus on his face. I don't know, that's what I was going for.
