Description
Part of the Model Photography series. Commissions that people have asked for for posters, fashion, and drawing reference. Once again I don't only do self portraits so if you want another model besides myself say so and I'll try to find one that matches your needs!!*Note* I tried to represent an emotion with each of these model shots, unlike the last series, which was more of a testing of my skill with lighting, posing, and the idea and technique behind it.
Okay, lemme approach this cautiously or some of my friends will think I'm a manslut looking for attention and people I don't know may flame me. In college I would like to do theatre, modeling, and photography as side occupations. I do not think I'm beautiful or gorgeous...in fact you really don't have to be to be a model these days with the make up and photoshop technology that we have. You just have to understand expression and light sources in addition to how your body looks and works. These are pieces of artwork and are suppose to be for that purpose...I am not looking for attention, trying to be sexy, looking for a date, or anything. I have a wonderful girlfriend of almost 3 years to prove that that is not what I am after. However, these pictures and this light ARE suppose to make me look good...that's the purpose of modeling and photography. In these pictures I am trying to display my own skill with a camera and with modeling and NOT my physical beauty, which I don't have much of anywayz because I am shockingly skinny for an 18 year old guy. Again, please don't flame me...and if you do I'll just hide your comment so your efforts will be in vain. If you are a friend of mine, you will probably understand my purpose cuz most of you are artistic as well and you all know me very well. ALL that being said...here is one of the 4 model shots that I did.
PS. the blurry and grainy shots are meant to be that way, that's how a lot of magazines make flaws disappear.
In addition:
These photographs are taken into photoshop, cropped, softened, and then the contrast is risen...THERE IS NO photoshopping of myself alone...if u think so, then prove it with back up...don't just say...oh thats just photoshop....that's a form of flaming ^^
And finally...to say it one more time...I'm not looking for dirty sexual attention, if you want to comment on my body or whatever you are welcome to and thank you (even though the comment probably will be untrue) but that was NOT what I was after here...if I were after that these pictures would be on facebook instead of an Art Community website.

Oh gosh!
I think you failed in trying not to be sexy (:
You are. damn.
I don't want to by 'dirty' or something, but I like this.
And I also like the lightening. Too bad the photo is a bit fuzzy,
but when you have that beauty on a picture, nobody cares.
Yeah!

This is probably one of my favorite photography pieces of all time. I love the lighting and the pose. It completes the image with out being too flashy or annoying Good work!

Flame! ^^ Kawaiine (misspelt?)
If what you say is true about the magz using the grany effect to remove flaws, then I just have to add that your features look almost chiseled in that sought after lighting of yours ;D great piece

That piece isn't grainy though. Lol I only used that technique as an experiment with the blonde pieces.

the lighting makes your eyes look completely white!
do you do all your shots in a bathroom? i ask only because of the towel rack in many shots. i wish the lighting was that good in my bathroom!

I have a certain bathroom that I do because the lighting works so well in there at a certain time of the day.
