My friend Ricky stopped by today with his girlfriend. He happens to own the screen printing company that I'm currently shooting ads for so I used his appearance to my advantage and took a couple shots for an ad.

Maybe you should lay out the jeans alittle differently so the waist doesn't look so big. I just got my first pair of glasses that I didn't think I needed. I apologize to anybody in the past year that I said their pictures were out of focus lol.

It's a little bit rushed and not really up to par with commercial photography. Maybe this is the style but I would've cleaned it up with better light and again, two pairs of great female legs WEBSITE http://mikhaylovphoto.com/

Nov 22, 2009 06:49 | #9 Grimlock wrote in post #9060080  LOL! I like the shot as well. The shot itself is perfect. Really did great on that part. But, I'll be honest, the typography isn't doing it for me. (not your watermark) I know, it's probably their branded logo. But, the implementation seems out of place for me. Or maybe it's the color. It needs to flow better with the wonderful shot you have. Just my opinion. It's the company logo. Actually this isn't the finished product. I just slapped the logo in a random color on the photo for the owners benefit so that he could get an idea for what it could potentially look like. He will be the one doing all the text. korrektor wrote in post #9060138 It's a little bit rushed and not really up to par with commercial photography.

The company logo is great (someone else talked about it being out of place). It's not that it's out of place. It's just the wrong color for that photograph. It doesn't match. Also, I'm very confused about the woman's feet (I'm assuming the smooth legs are the girl's legs )They are pointing two different ways or something. Maybe drape one of her legs on top of the couch? Maybe too provacative? I'd also ditch the underwear from the photo. Keep the bra, but not the undies. Just my opinion. And the bra should not be as prominently featured. Hide it a bit. It's an outstanding campaign. Her two feet are pointing down... and his are pointing up... I think you've confused one of his with hers.
