Sorry for all the post of Alicia, but she is my only model:oops: These were taken on a cloudy day at the Botanical Garden. It's a beautiful place to take pictures. Here are just a few that I have worked on so far. You can see some more here. (external link) I will be adding some more as I work on the rest of the shoot. I hope the foot on #5 is not too distracting, it happens to be my favorite. C&C welcomed.

Art

Edit: I have replaced photo #5 with one that is warmer from the orignal photo.

I like them Art. I think the one thing to check is that the WB seems different for each shot. I prefer the warmth of number 4 and would love to see that color on number 5 as it is my favorite pose and composition as well. Good stuff.

Thanks Mike. Keeping WB and color consistent on phots has been my weakest point. It really gets frustrating. As hard as I try, I can never seem to get it right. But you are correct about the WB.

Nice shots Art. I would shoot her with her chin down. Kind tucked with an elevated AOV. I think you both are getting much better at working together. Pic 3 to end are my favs.

Art, never apologize for posting pictures of a beautiful woman! In fact, send me a PM next time so I don't miss them!

In the first two, it looks like she's trying to look sexy but doesn't quite know how. 3 through 5 are better poses. I don't really like the glass building in the background, though in the last shot the model dominates the image enough, the background doesn't bother me.

Very nice shots of a pretty model, especially numbers 4 and 5. I do think that the building in the background is a distraction. Please post more.

I really like #4, simply because you see less of the background. I like them all, but felt like the first 3's background (glass behind her) took away from her, but overall very nice. :cool:

Good work! I would say work on the posing a bit more. #3 looks really awkward and her foot is growing out of her head in #5.

#4 is my favourite, she has a really nice expression in that one. ;)

Thanks Dante. I will have to try to remember about shooting her with her chin down.

Thanks Curtis. Agree with you about the first two. I wanted to try something different so I had her playing with her dress. I will PM you next time I post more pictures of Alicia:)

Thank you SHANGHAi. Posing someone is my weakness:oops:

Thank You for you comment Scott

As for the Glass Building, I thought it would make a good background. Shows you how much I know:)

Thank You again everyone.
