Since digital took over, I don't hand color prints anymore.
Therefore, how about a #2 ?

Thanks

Do you hear the rustle outside in the bushes? Yeah, that is me. The swim was hell, could you put some coffee on?

I know what you mean about the swim -  at least somewhat lol - as I am a competitive open water swimmer -   but even I would not last long in the bloody pond this time of year lol

seriously though - if ever you decide to make the trip, my door is open - or perhaps I could catch up with you on one of my several trips to the EU each year?

Cheers smile

Wowza! Your face is electrifying! You're awesome at https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30342237

I'd love to see you on the front cover of vogue big_smile seriously, you can do anything - wear a flowerpot on your head and someone in Milan will buy it for a small fortune. Personally, I'd love you to do a shoot inspired by Audrey Hepburn.

Competitive open water swimmer? Wow - you should call yourself a shark-racer! I'll take your advice about the Atlantic big_smile
I would love to come to the US, but at the moment very penny I have is going on my partner's education. It's in the works though! Let me know when you come over, I get over to Austria fairly often and the UK is great to visit smile

You are awesome at this! https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/20091106

I think from here, you should try working with a digital manipulator who does fairy tale image really well. A collaboration will open your eyes to things you didn't know about yourself, as well as getting a new twist on your images. I love your work, it is funky and unique - keep at it, and maybe try some body painted stuff- I think it might work for you smile

Hope tomorrow is a better day for you! Xx

You provoke a reaction, you ommand your own sense of beauty. From here, I'd love to see you do some headshot - you have beautiful eyes, and I would like to see more of them.

Would I work with you? Yes, and I would consider it a privilege.

Thank you so much! smile  Should I ever make it to your area, I would love to work with you as well.

Your work is abstract and unusual, and I love that. I think you should try some outdoor work, see if you can replicate your use of shadow in the outside work, and use what you find there to cast the lines and shapes that really make your images shine smile

The lighting here is amazing! From here, I want to see you shoot more like the image above. Try it without the guns/bullets, and see if you can capture the intensity of your beautiful model without the weaponry. My guess is, it'll turn out even better!

I love the metallic shine! You have some great head shots, and I'd like to see if you can keep that metallic glint and engaging use of shadow going in some full length shots!

Would I work with ou? If you can promise me a headshot like the one above, the yes smile

More like this! You have a great pose in the top shot, and your expression is great for that shot. I'd like to see you do more urban fashion like this, and some more commercial beauty. Your face is lovely and your smile is charming!

Thank you! I'll do just that. I had to get that out of my system and Cat was the right model at the right time to realize the "B-Movie Poster" I saw in my head.

You are still quite new, but you already know how to hold the camera's attention.

From here,I'd like to see a couple of clean, clear head shots (to attract more photographers) and I think you should get on to some smaller local latex designers. You are new, but your figure is great for it and you might get lucky smile

Very cool, thank you.
You're dead on with going outdoors, I have been moving to it.
Right now it's a question of location & model privacy.

There is some serious emotion in this shot, I love it.

Your fetish work is awesome- I would like to see more highly stylised fetish work from you, and some more like the above, too smile

Good luck shooting, and I look forward to seeing the results!

Such a pretty lady! Our face is beautiful, but somehow your eyes burn through that mask like the fires of hell you're tempting everyone towards.

I'd look at the rest of your port, but my iPad melted sad

I'd like to see you do some more shots like your avatar. You could probably shoot with anyone you wanted to, so I would love o see you shoot some beauty, and for some reason I like the idea of you shooting in an original series star trek uniform. You'd rock it smile

I think you have a nack for head shots. Grab some more models and shoot until what you captured above becomes second nature, and then experiment!

Thank you! The model is my younger sister, taken in our basement late at night to testing out a new wireless flash trigger (about time) and soft box. I was surprised how well it turned out.

Your pose, expression and the overall shot make you look like a princess. Well done you!

From here, I think you should do more beauty. Your face is candy-sweet and you have a lovely innocence that shines in your head shots. I'd like to see you pull off some really extravagant colours!

Thanks, Evie smile

I think ou should experiment more with shadow. Your black and white work is lovely, and the shadow you have adds a something special to them, especially the one above. Also, I think you should work with a really talented MUA to do something like the above shot with a high fashion look big_smile

Would I work with you? Hmmm..... Ask me again some time. You've got great potential in the direction I'm taking my port.

I chose that one because you already know how good you are at swimsuits! I absolutely adore the location!

From here, I'd like to see you tackle some naked ladies.

Not literally of course tongue I think some art nudes in your beautiful locations would make for some seriously stunning images!

Thank you, very much. It was very nice of you to look at me. Your suggestion is good and something I have thought about, but my priority is building my book so I get to pitch local fashion stores. And by the end of next quarter I should be pitching local swimsuit designers, as well.

If a local model wanted to art nudes I think we could so something spectacular. But I don't think I'll hear from anyone on that, so building the portfolio it will be. I am doing a shoot around the Salton Sea. If you're not familiar with that it, please do look up on the net and you can see why California is such a fabled land for photography.
