[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
And yet another one from the same photoshoot as the previous posts, I wanted to capture Nadine in a more seductive light. I used just one strobe with a diffuser box situated to the right for this. Because of lack of space, Raul (Voyagenation) and I decided to make the model stand in a corner and used the curtained walls as reflectors to act as fill-in.

The light turned out very good but I was bothered by the background. Instead of junking all the shots in this location, I decided to just do something about it in PP. The black BG is therefore added through solid color fill layer. :)

Comments please! :)

Other PP work: Crop, layered with soft light blend and guassian blur, resized for TL.

bro peet another nice shot!

just do some ws in bw. ;-)

VERy nice portrait of beautiful young woman.
MAybe you play a bit to much with background 'cos you lost her hair and this peace of hair on her sholder looks like coming out of nowhere.

Regards Darko

Wow - excellent work! You're right, the light is fantastic, so is the sharpness, and you did a good job with the background.
Lovely expression and beautiful catchlights - Nadine is gorgeous and the shot really does her justice.
Great work!

Hello Pierre,

Beautiful shot, great lighting, it brings out the beautiful skin tone, excellent pp work... Well present. Very pretty model too. The only thing bother me is her right eyes seem to have obvious "blood vessels" maybe due to lack of rest? Thanks for sharing

Cheers,
Sweety

nice photo , tfs

Only that her hair needs a little hair lighting. I like the cropping. The eyes... ohhhh lala. Perfect!


TFS.

Hi Pierre, I just have to say something. I think this is your best model portrait by far. It is also a much better photo of Nadine than your previous. She doesn't look harsh and over processed. The lighting is soft and her skin tones are beautiful and warm. Oh....and not forgetting the 'natural look' which I like. Big thumbs up from me.

Very sensual photo!

Have a nice day,
Carla

Hi Pierre
