vintage lovely model

Here is a model I photographed. Sorry about the LQ.

Interesting pose and point of view. It doesn't look like she's in a good mood.

Composition-wise, I don't care for the top of her head being lopped off. I think her head is too far in the top right corner.

Was this shot on film? It looks soft. Were you going for the sepia cast?

[ErrolEPhotography]

Yes. I wanted to make the model look almost like she is "fed up" with the whole paparazzi type people. So the look on her face almost looks like in disgust. And it was shot in digital but I love film so much thats how my style is.

I think you captured the mood correctly. However, my friend (who has much more expierence, knowledge and know how) told me that cutting off any part of the body is a no-no.

Cutting off the tops of model's heads seems to be the "done thing" these days, provided it doesn't upset the composition too much. I think in this instance though, the camera could've been pointed up just a little more.

I think the biggest problem is that her coat blends in with the background too much. This would have been amazingly good with a black background!

I like the emotion you captured Errol. Well done.

so true with a black back drop but the guy wanted the model have a white backdrop. But the customer is always right.

Crop it just above your logo. The bottom of this image does nothing but distract from her face.
