Outdoor photoshoot

[blackeagle]

A friend of mine asked me if i could do a photoshoot of her, and i was like why not, so after travelling 2 hours in subway and train, i finally arrived there and we walked around a bit, and every place where i saw an compostition, i told her where to stand or sit and how to look etc, i quite like em...

C&C much appreciated!! :thumbs:

Those are the ones i wanted to share, took a few more but these i really wanted to share cause im quite proud of them...

what do you think?

[Dark Star]

Quite right to be proud - lovely shots and a lovely subject. #1,2,3 and 5 are the best imo and I like the processing on the final image. Where were they taken?

[h.r.ford]

You should be proud. Very nice.

[sue]

Like them all, well done. I like the one with the pink rose, my favourite.

[Catdaddy]

I really like them - you should be pleased with yourself. I take it she' spleased with the results too?

[blackeagle]

Thanks all!! :love: :nuts:

Havent spoken to her yet, the pics were taken yesterday and i had to go back home with the train, so we said goodbye and shes somewhere else today, but she knows theres a link in her hotmail to check em out :)

Thanks everybody!! really appreciated

A smile in some of the shots would have made them soo much better I think, that said my favourites were the second and last ones. :)

Nice shots, well done..... :thumbs:

I think i agree on you with this, but on the other hand, you dont know what her teeth look like, and you dont want to haha ;) so its for the best we kept it this way ghehe :D

I like the first one too but, theres something about the background, the bokeh makes me quite dizzy.

I like no4 and in no7 she looks really cute and elfin, I like the way the light falls on her face, makes her skin look like porcelain, very flattering.

I would go as far as to say I actually dont like no5 at all, and I dont think she will, the angle doesnt flatter her face at all!

The last one .... wow!!!!

Love it! love it! love it!

[lee]

Some cracking shots :thumbs:

[Arkady]

#7 and #9 do it for me - the poses and compositions in the others are fine, but her expression leaves a bit to be desired - she looks almost bored in the others. I can't believe she's that bland in person. The set lines around her mouth make her look slightly nervous (maybe that's just the way she looks all the time, if so, sorry) - a good way to get female models (especially amateurs) to relax thier faces is ask them to blow raspberries - it relaxes the facial muscles and the act in itself is so silly that most girls will laugh a bit which relaxes them further.



Or just get them drunk...

Thats a great tip Rob :) Mind if I add it to my 'bank?' :D

As I said on MSN Eric, you should be very very pleased with these, especially that last one :thumbs:

[CT]

Some excellent work. The model looks a little ill at ease but it's understandable if she's not used to posing. Excellent use of the surroundings for settings. Fill flash would have killed some of those eye socket shadows, No 5 being the most noticeable, she looks like she's done 3 rounds with Mike Tyson. :D

[danza]

Good shots there!

I didn't realise how sharp the 50mm 1.8 can be!

[blackeagle]

Thanks everybody for the great tips en lovely comments, really appreciated!! :clap: :thumbs:

[Jimmy_Lemon]

I really need to find some better looking friends!

Those shots are great! Love #6, not sure why though! just a great shot :D Well done!

[oldgit]

Very nice.
1,2 for me

[King_Boru]

Amersfoort, The netherlands :) hehe im dutch

[anna_marie09]

[blackeagle]

thanks everybody for your support!! really appreciated!! :)

[Raindancer]

Some great shots really like them.......:)

Especially the processing of the last one, what did you do there?

[ashworthacca]

Some cracking shots there mate.

Like no 7 but it's a pity about the drainpipe in the background. I seem to be drawn to the background too easily.

[RobbieW]

Rob

[chewyuk]

[Searyous]

I like the purple in the water, very subtle.

[johnb]

Good efforts. Agree with the comments re the smile. it can look forced with the lips closed

[ppp]

Last two for me, cracking!
