I like the lighting on this, and it is a very good portrait. Watch your background. It almost makes this picture go from a portrait to a snapshot. Still, good work.
The focus is a lttle soft, and the lighting is a little extreme, moving the model a little more into the shadows. or changing your angle so her face was in more light would have helped. Reflectors are good for this situation. Also, shooting vertically would eliminate a lot of the background. Black and white also is very good for this type of work.
beautiful title. i like that the background is blurry and that it is (more or less) all one color. the light on the girl's face is very uneven though. in the right of the photo (the left half of her face) it is great, the left of the photo is a combination of shadow and blown-out white. could she have turned so that the light (window?) was more behind her and the lighting on her face more even? it's worht a try. -- gr8photos (4)
Almost.....I don't like the sun wash on the left outer side of her face, then too dark in the inner part of the left side. I really like her right side! 6 Swash
I like the play with color, but do note that the eyes are somewhat subdueded in this shot. If you could get a catch light on them (the twinkle reflection) it would add much to the photo.
