TANAY DAS's picture

A constructive critique will be helpful.

First of all I would like to say I am not good a capturing portraits but I am trying hard to learn that. This picture was taken with natural light and no artificial light was used. Any suggestion would be helpful. thank you. :)

Nothing to say other than perfect good portrait. If at all one could lighten up the eyes a bit in Photoshop or Lightroom. Congrats!

Thank you. will definitely follow your thought.

Love it. cant tell if its my bad vision or not, but think since she posed for you, make sure here eyes are sharp and in focus.

Thank you .. will try to improve.

Wonderful portrait! Since you asked for cc; I'd note the following:
I find that the bright object in the background, past her right shoulder, is distracting.

Thank you, i missed that.

One thing that I would recommend for a more intimate image is to get closer to your subject; for headshots, you want just that. Emphasize the eyes and blur the background a little; John was right, it's a little distracting due to all the lines and colors behind the model. Pull the attention to the face.

I do like your use of side light on the subject's face; it helps bring out the ridges and valleys in the age lines. Nice composition off center using the rule of thirds.

Thank you for the suggestions. Will definitely work on them.

Tanay - Lighting is exquisite. Background although interesting is a bit distracting in my opinion. Using the "rule of thirds" the top horizontal line usually aligns with the eyes. In this case, I would say "close enough". Well done.
