Steffi in the park

[freddycr]

Hi...I need your opinion on this.
My boss has comissioned a pic of the young lady with a park BG. It is to be displayed in a huge billboard.
For now this is one of my favs.

What do you think?

I think the shadows on her face and the sky being so light would keep this from being displayed on a billboard. (Unless the attractive young lady is the bosses wife/daughter, that is... :D )

Not far from the mark...;)

I really don't know what it will look like enlarged to billboard size, but it's a pretty good shot. A little fill flash would have helped the facial shadows. Your model is gorgeous!

I think the advice on shadows is good, but one thing I've noticed with billboard shots, is that the model is usually facing the camera. I know it's less creative, but with billboards, I think the more simple they are, the more effective.

My reasoning for this is that billboards are seen by passers' by. They don't usually have time to take in the artistic qualities of a picture, as well as the message that goes with it, and this picture makes people want to look at it, instead of the message.

Well, that's my theory, anyway...

Fill flash: good
Picture of pretty girl: better
