I'm liking this shot a lot but I'm not sure if it's portfolio worthy. Just wanted to get some other opinions on it as well as an overall critique.  Feb 25 13 02:45 pm Link I think you could use it. You don't have too many dark portraits like this. I'd crop the bottom a bit though Like up to her hair or at least elbow Feb 25 13 02:48 pm Link Well, I am not a photographer...but I think it is absolutely beautiful. I, as an aspiring model would love to have a photograph such as this of myself in my own portfolio! Feb 25 13 02:48 pm Link I think the crop just below the elbow is a little odd. I think I would like it more if it were a bit tighter. Feb 25 13 02:50 pm Link Thank you guys! I didn't catch that but I definitely see it now Feb 25 13 02:52 pm Link LOVE the face and the photography aspect. But then my eyes go down and it gets awkward. I can't pinpoint it, but either her elbow is too big or her waist is too small (like, weird small) but something seems off in that area. so I think maybe a bit more work, but other than that great picture!

I just sat and stared at her staring off! But it definitely needs a much tighter crop. Elbow line looks wonky and super thin waist makes me look down there instead of her face. Feb 25 13 03:01 pm Link I have to agree, a better crop should do it! Aside from that, I like it!

I would "fatten it up" a little bit more still (it's not a lot that needs to be done, but just a little push could make a difference), and maybe her elbow a bit more elegant compared to the rest of her arm. other than that, it's awesome Feb 25 13 03:14 pm Link Here's a cropped version, Let me know what you guys think!  Feb 25 13 03:18 pm Link like the cropped version better  Feb 25 13 03:19 pm Link B C L wrote: Much better Feb 25 13 03:27 pm Link Awesome, thanks again, It has been deemed worthy haha Feb 25 13 03:38 pm Link think the BG color is a poor choice - did you use a bounce board to get more light into her eyes? And it would lessen the nose shadow .Need some more light in the hair IMHO Feb 25 13 10:10 pm Link I like the cropped version, just wish I knew why people love to cut off the top of models' heads.  Feb 25 13 10:26 pm Link Amazing image, but def use the cropped version, she does look unnaturally thin in the full version. Love the darkness of it though, and the background.
