If I told you how much I love this image, I'd be lying. I simply just can't, It became my instant favourite. Funny, how unexpected silly moments, can turn a shoot up a notch. The natural, candid, yet sultry and sexy feeling that comes off is just what I'm looking for, and compliments the model's personality perfectly. For me expression is the key, otherwise a portrait is just a stylized blank opaque stare.

I agree. Lovely, animated and totally real. You have shot this beautiful woman beautifully. Perhaps having the camera a little higher would have been even better in this case as she is looking up, slightly but I realise she probably was not doing so until this exact moment. A bit more head room, still possible thenks to photoshop, and more width might have also been nice but who cares she looks great. Beautifully styled, lit and all the subtle little things that included in the word, photographed.
