-My favorite part of the picture is Bill looking off, it is about the most natural smile I have ever seen him make.
-I agree about Melinda’s hands, if I could change anything that would be it.
-As far as the composition go’s, there was supposed to be one more guy on the right (Stephen Shwartzman), but he was late so we had to leave him out.
-I like the reflection, it helps separate Oprah from the background.

You mean, what was formerly Oprah? I don’t know who/what that is, but it’s a monster.

Agreed…I can’t really think of a single way to improve the image. It’s gorgeous

Pictures like this always remind me of the movie “What just happened”. The position of the people is very calculated !

The “woman in purple”? You mean Oprah Winfrey?

How would you have improved the lighting, Stephen? Once you’d improved it, would you then clear it with the Art Director, whose brief you’d obviously completely ignored?

Images like this really bring out the dickheads. Not one of the detractors ever shoot this level of work themselves, and most of the time they don’t even shoot for a living. You couldn’t have improved the lighting, you wouldn’t have got Bill to look in the camera, you wouldn’t even know how to power up the fucking pack.
