Few mixed studio shots.

Hi all,

Here are a few images from my recent studio shoots - know the processing will obviously not be to everyone's taste but I've not shared anything for a while so thought I should

Cheers for looking,

Mike

What's the deal with all the noise? Pictures look good otherwise.

Images look too clean without it in my opinion. Like I said, processing not to everyones taste but cheers for the feedback.

Not to keen on the first two, but i like 3 and 4, 3 is weird but fab

Would like to see the noise free version

Yes 3 definitely catches the eye very very different.

Number 1 really works for me - very striking.
Number 2 has a strange shadow beside her nose, and the pose exposing the breast just looks odd.
Number 3 is a little too stark & the skin too plastic-looking IMO, though very striking against that BG.
Number 4 seems to be channeling an Austen Powers vibe (good) but her nose seems to disappear (not so good).

Very striking. IMO The processing is so dominant that it's hard to look past it; the frequency separation or whatever you've done has removed much of the subtlety of the light and shade from the faces leaving them looking 2 dimensional. Would some dodging and burning keep the effect you're after but add a bit of depth and form back in?
