It's been a while since I've last shot. Finally got back to it last Thursday. Here's a couple of shots from the shoot. Let me know what you think of these. I'm trying to shoot more classic fashion than full out glamour. Do you think these met the objective?

This first model is Sarah. Makeup by Laura White.

Personally, I like classic fashion photography.

Looks like a you had a great session(s).

Pic #1: I like it, maybe more fill to add a little detail to the black dress (although it could be my monitor not showing the detail). Maybe even a kicker to make her pop out a bit.

#2: NICE! It's alive, nice composition, you've kept detail in the white dress. Some white shoes would've been nice though, but that's being nitpicky.

#3: Nice. see comment to #1

I don't know about #4.

Keep posting.
I have no lid upon my head, but if I did you could look inside and see what's on my mind.

Congrats on what seems to have been a great session. Strong, vibrant models, simple, clean compositions and good lighting.

I agree with the comments above. If I were to nitpick(aren't all photographers nitpickers?) I'd might want to see a little more of her face in #2. Yes, I know in fashion it's the outfit that's the star but to me her face seems a little too obscured for my taste and adds a little distraction. In #4 it looks like, to me anyways, that the model had her head closer to the camera then her body and her forhead closer to the camera then her chin. This makes her head look larger proportionally then her body and her forhead overwhelms the frame. Did you use a wide angle lens for this image? Using one exasperates this distortion. I did the same thing a few months ago so I was guilty of the same effect.

Great shooting and don't wait so long next time to post :-)

Thanks for your comments.

As for #4, I was using a 28-70mm lens. I guess I got a little to close with the wide angle part of the zoom.

As for the shoes in #2, that was funny. the model realy like this pair so we decide to add some color to the high key.
