[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I shot Kit's wedding several months ago and she was kind enough to pose for some studio shots. This shot was lit with only one flash off to the left side of the picture aimed at the ceiling through a diffuse umbrella.

Kit has that great look of a movie star from the 40's. She is a great model.

Hi Roger:)
Sexy pose and well manage of light.
You are right about 40's look.

Hi, Roger -
Kit is a very alluring model with a wonderful look. The long landscape format compliments her striking legs. Great smile and pose. The lighting works great, although my only very small nit would be the stripe of shadow across the right side of her face. Regardless, great image.

Hi Roger,

Yes, she does have a retro look about her. I guess they call it curvey these days, but I always liked the look. To make this a really retro-looking shot, the same pose with a touch of garter and stocking showing would work so well, IMHO. Nice work, with excellent lighting.

Best regards,
Werner

Ciao Roger, lovely womam in great pose, beautiful model, splendid light, very well done, ciao Silvio

Cool shot - nice use of light, sufficiently diffuse, and the background works well. The harsh knife-blade-shaped shadow down the side of her face is a detail I'd personally aim to remove, either by reposing her head slightly, or using PP.

Minor detail though, I like this!

Hi Roger,
Yes, this portrait is rightly in the movie star from the 40's!
Excellent study of light once again!
You have a great model!
What is the shadow on the left side of her face: lock of hair or a drop shadow!
I can imagine that it was not easy to avoid!
Bravo! Annie

Ciao Roger


I'm not very good at portrait, I confess
But I admire people who have the facility
to photograph with smoothness and elegance your models!
A beautiful shot, your model is super pretty and has a lot of class!
Congratulations, by Bg in black, is fabulous.
