The first picture cannot make it, the framing and composition is jsut all wrong. Of course, there is no right and wrong in art, but then, some things work and some don't. here nothing works. The railing is overpowering. The molding on the wall decapitated her head. Dead on arrival.
The rest, nothing to write home about, but much better.
In general, I found the lighting too flat and boring, resulting in pictures lacking in depth and 3-dimensions.
Things to pay attention to, rule of third is there for a reason, master it then break it. When in doubt, it usually works. Chopping off limbs, indlucing hands is usually a no no.
Move around. For examble the 3rd picture, teh open archway, as it is right now, looks to me over bearing, dominating the picture. However, if you have moved close to the wall, shooting the model with the archway framing her, the result will be totally different.
Go forth and shoot alot more.
btw ... got such beautiful model to shoot and you didn't tell me?
1. i didn't notice the moulding until someone brought it up. i thought i would experiment with the railing.
2. I was in a dilemma as to balance between shadow and flatness. still need more practice there.
3. I have a problem with the models moving to n fro. would it be more ideal to shoot wider and crop it later?
4. If i move in nearer, i would have lost the frame because she is actually pretty small frame.
btw, if i will arrange for u to shoot her but then your schedule so pack that it will probably be next yr right?
