This is my friend, Summer. No wait. . .she's not "friend". Summer is family. She's the daughter of my sister's best friend -- and my sister has been like her 2nd mom since the day she was born. So, she is more neice than friend. :) Fortunately, she is not only exotically beautiful, but she is an amazingly good sport about being photographed!
Friday morning from work, I emailed her and asked her if she was up for a free lunch and a few snaps before she went back to work. Her response, "Oh Hell, ya" :) So after lunch, we headed around to the back of the restaurant, and voila! Here you go.
I thought this photo captured her personality well: playful, but never losing her ultra femininity -- without ever so much of a trace of fu-fu :)

What a perfect pose for this beautiful and obviously vibrant young woman. You captured a playful, almost saucy expression - yet there is also a sweetness that is refreshing. I love the diagonal placement by the way. Great job!
I like this alot Sandy, thought it would place much higher. She has that little teasing look in her eyes and a cute little grin. She looks very comfortable being photographed!
Nice Finish Sandy! She is so beautiful! And the picture is perfect...the lighting is fabulous...and she is obviously very comfortable around you becuase you captured her personality perfectly. Great shot. I wish you lived closer so you could teach me everything you know!
Good finish for you Sandy, re this challenge, as they were some very tuff and very good entries in this one. You certainly know how to photograph people, as this is an excellent portrait.....Well done.....
This model certainly does have the "IT" factor. She has strickingly beautiful features. I love how she is leaning up against the brick wall and the lighting looks just perfect. Beautiful portrait!
