These are great shots. I love her look and her hair style.

The delineation between the black pants and the background is excellent.

As poster above said, great lighting also.

Perfectly done. Not my cup of tea, wardrobe wise, but very very nice. She looks very beautiful "underneath it all". ;-)

Love the effects. Did you do any special post processing?

Thanks harryb49...appreciate that. After I process the picture the only I do is sharpen it and send it to my wife in which she puts the woman touch on it that I can't. She does a little healing brush on some of the skin area is what I know of. I just love how she fix it in the end...of course with my help...like...that looks good and so on. hahahahaha :)

Love the look, crisp and clean. Love the costume and accessories although not quite what I am used to, but you Swiss are so far ahead of us in the colonies it is to be expected. I would like to see the detail in the top just a little more in #1. In #2 in the top of the lacey see-through area there are diagonal lines ... in the upper quarter. In #3 the last 1/3 of her nose looks odd somehow.

Would love to know what, if anything, is done to the skin. Imperfect skin is the bane of my wife photographs, sigh, and I love this look.

[drisley]

Perfect lighting, makeup and post processing.
Who did her makeup? It looks great!

[dabluedevil]

Great shots, only one thing. On the first one it seems the background light is a tad bit to bright coming around the back of her hair. If it was crisp like the rest of her hair It would make the picture a lot better in my eyes. It's just distracting and I keep looking back at it. Other than that though they are faboulous.

Thanks DwightMcCann...appreciate the points you have made. Swiss...hahahahahaha...believe it or not I am a Texan living in Sweden...my wife is Swedish, though. When I post process I only sharpen them and send them to her and she does all the woman touch that I don't know ho wshe does it. I think she use blur and lower the opacity and use the history brush.

[Dooglla]

Perfect lighting, makeup and post processing.
Who did her makeup? It looks great!

Thanks drisley...we had a girl named Emma from Sweden who fixed the makeup for the model. They both drove over here together for the shoot.

Thanks dabluedevil...will need to lower the light brightness down a tad next time. Appreciate you pointing that out.

and more.......
anyway, great shot!!!!!!

[goatee]

They're wonderful shots - agreed, the makeup / costume isn't necessarily to my taste, but it looks magazine quality. Also, I can't tell if the model has flawless skin, or whether you've gotten rid of any blemishes, but if you have, you've done a great job - there's no plastic skin here.

Thanks goatee..her skin is very nice to begin. Setting the lights right can make the skin real nice also.

[ImagineTNT]

Nice shots. Very crisp, clean, and professional.

[Art Rodriguez]

You and your wife are learning very fast. I like the makeup and costume. It is different, which I like. I really like number 2. Keep up the good work, the both of you.

[Jon M]

Great composition and exposure. Care to share any EXIF?

[Mike Reynolds]

[Dooglla]

great pics. how did you get the background so white ?

Thanks freefallu...the lights have to be set right to the background at f11...I use a meter all the time. And also use your level to brighten them more if needed.

[Dooglla]

Great composition and exposure. Care to share any EXIF?

Thanks Jon M...sorry the EXIF wasn't on these but, I use Canon 1D Mark II...125 @ f11 200ISO, 24-70L 2.8 Lens

[Dooglla]

Thanks Mike...hope that is a good whoa! :)
