Thanks for carina for this awesome photoshoot. The sun was setting and we drove up to Villa Sainte-Marceline, behind the oratoire Saint-Joseph to catch it.
Used a gold reflector to fill the shadows with even more golden light. Had to tone down the saturation by a lot...

Well this shot I like! I don´t love it though, the tilt of the head along with the hair gives me the impression that I too should shake that hair out of my face :) Nice lighting though, looks completely natural and nice use of a reflector. The eyes are kindof too dark for my taste, think I would have liked this shot better if you had brightened them up a bit. The composition is good, I like that it´s tightly framed. I personally would have increased the contrast though but I completely understand why you didn´t, that´s just a personal preference of mine.
The model is doing a good job too, the hair doesn´t seem to bother her in the least and she´s got a nice connection to the camera, I like the hand there so coudos to her.
Anyway, you know what you are doing so I´ll leave it at that.
Very nice portrait...love the hair placement and the deep blue eyes! My only criticsm may be the the tonal range of the skin: a little too unnaturally pinkish - but great shot overall!
its a nice photo but i can't help but feel the hair wouldn't fall over her face that way considering the way her head is tilting.. maybe just me lol.. i still like the photo, just feel the hair has been deliberately placed wrong... but as i say, still a nicely taken photo and the model is beautiful...
pretty model. The positioning of this seems a bit awkward though... like the way her head is tilted I keep thinking her hair should be falling the other way... unless this is mid movement? I dunno, it just seems purposely there instead of having a natural flow to it. The lighting is pretty and soft though and warms her skin tones nicely.
