Hello
I found your listing on questmodels.com, but your e-mail address that was provided did not work. I was wondering if you were intersted in doing any kind of test shoots for an 18 year old male model and live not very far from Breax Bridge. I seem to have a somewhat high-fashion appearance. my website: http://www.brandonhoag.com/ Please contact if interested.
Thanks,
Brandon Hoag

Nice shot. The flower stands out nicely and the hard shadow makes it complete !

The softness works with most portraits, in my humble opinion, and I don't think this one should be any sharper...it works as is.
I would, however, like to see a little more contrast. The image seems a bit flat to me. If you are using Photoshop, a little "S" bend using the curves tool would help this image a lot. The bend does not have to be drastic, just enough to add a bit more contrast in the important tonal range.
I also like the crop as is. I think if you try to crop out the negative space as Barry suggests, you will lose too much of the nice composition of this image. The negative space, in my opinion, does not detract enough to crop even tighter.
Of course, everyone has an opinion, and this is just mine. Take it for what it's worth, but you be the final judge.
I would like to see more work like this from you. Keep 'em coming!

I really like this. The curves of her hair, the glance to the side, slight smile starting - nice cimposition, nice moment. Would this be a 'high key' portrait? Either way, I think it's great.....

Hey Karen,
This seems a little soft (perhaps the scan). If it were me, I'd crop the black in the top left corner and the bottom up to the top of her shoulder. Nice portrait!

I'm new to this site and not exactly sure how to go about responding to other members but...
The original photo is color. I did exactly as you stated and turned it into B/W then brought out the lip/eye and background color. Thanks for the great comment!

Very pretty. If you clean up the artifacts in the purple area, you've got a winner here...
