Yes, My dear young friends-There were many beautiful Young women in 1974. This is one of them. Probably one of the sweetest and cutest young women that I have ever met and photographed. She was 18 then and seemed to LOVE modeling. I later photographed her wedding in about 1977. Type C photo on Kodak paper. No P/S used.
She is indeed a sweet looking. Wondering how would she look now! Love the (open shadow yet directional) soft lighting, framing and selective focusing. I dont think the "luck" part is true, this looks great because of your efforts is what I beleive.
You're right! This is a beautiful young lady, and nicely photographed. I especially like the soft lighting on the girl-- nice, if a bit bright, background too, but then this is outdoors afterall.
