Zoe in braids

I wanted to shoot a portrait of a model with braided hair. Zoe's sister jumped at the chance to braid her hair for this shoot. I think she spent all night on YouTube learning this braid. I think both sisters crushed it.

I like the toning and soft lighting in general. I think that perhaps she could have twisted round a bit more just to give a hint of her left shoulder, which maybe would have reduced the wrinkles in er neck below here ear (I think..). Also the partial crop of her right hand made me think at first that it was her stomach.
I am no expert by a longshot, just trying to share my thoughts and hopefully you might find them useful.

Agreed. I haven't made it much past her eyes ;-)

Paige's booth portrait

Recently, I taught an Off Camera Flash class. Paige was my model for the class. We were outdoors but it started to rain. Luckily, a nearby restaurant let us conduct the class in their dining room.
