Sonjas' photogenic daughter. So many great props. Hat, boa, the flower in the hat. Excellent tones and contrast. The dark color of the hat and hair really brings your eyes to the face and to those eyes.
Very good portrait. Beautiful illumination, and relaxed use of the sepia-effect. I have a real fight with myself if the use of wide-angled lens in this kind of picture is adequate . But, OK, I can with some doubt accept it... The model seems to be comfortable in your company. Well done!
I don't like the green color cast, but parat from that a great picture. Composition, posing, expression, props, soft light, all perfectly fits together.
Oh, she is quite a little lady. What a beautiful composition. Great lines. Natural pose, good loking skin, great sharpness yet soft feeling. Way to go Sonja. Good bless her little soul.
I like this. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but I really think this portrait captured this little charmer very well. I love the look on her face, and I love whatever hue, color, whatever you'd call it, this is done in.
Great subject for this challenge! My only comment is that the image has a greenish-cast on my (calibrated) monitor. Not sure if that was intentional or not, but wanted to point it out just in case. Other than that, can't think of anything else I would change! Nice job.
Yes, this IS a little princess! Really marvelous stuff here. Wyoming must have good light for making her tones so nice--though I might try to brighten the highlights just a teeny bit, and darken the darks just a teeny bit. Very nice work! 9
I like that, even though this is a posed shot, you captured something in the subject that's very candid. You did a great job of capturing her personality. Plus, you combined great lighting and a great composition. Good luck!
Well done! The feather thingy adds some nice texture. The lighting is great, and the focus is very good. Good composition. Darks and lights well balanced. I wouldn't change a thing. A 10 from me.
What a lovely smile - you've captured a beautiful expression there - she looks wise and happy beyond her years. A lovely use of the boa to soften the surroundings and provide contrast to the harder colour/ lines of the hat. Lighting seems a touch harsh on her cheek but otherwise this is lovely.
Almost flawless. This should do well. Except the backing doesn't allow separation from the model that much (better on the left). To be perfectly honest, I don't feel much sympathy with the subject, even though the shot is of the highest technical level. Sorry. 7
Sonifo...this little 'Princess' is a great model for you. I wish I could rent her!!!! She is so cute and is growing up just since I've known you. Like all your work this is just grade A. I love the tones, expression and lighting. Good luck.
What fun it must have been to take this! A lovely (mainly) high key portrait, love the tumbling hair which suggest movement in a static pose and I like the way the feather boa leads your eye from bottom right to the face.
Good capture. I know from experience how hard it can be to keep the definition in something like the feathers and still not totally lose the texture in that type of hat. Very good exposure. I'm looking forward to finding out what kind of lighting you used for this shot. I wish it was just a little sharper around the eyes. Perhaps a polygon tool in PS to select only the eyes and apply a selective USM to the eyes to just make them pop so very little more. Good shot.
great use of light.. lovely expression... really like the antique/old fashioned feel. Little girls just love to dress up.. in all era's. This makes it timeless, and becomes a portrait of all little girls. nice job! :)
