Hi Paul, glad to see this one up on the front page. 3 years later but still great. What a strong and athletic model. Very tough pose and she is making it look easy. Good light, detail, skin color and studio set up!! Be well, stan

Off to Home Depot to get candy and mylar...

Well, I keep my van stocked with candy, Pat. That helps attract the A-list women. ;)
The 'floor' is actually a 6-by-2-foot sheet of reflective Mylar from Home Depot. I cropped the shot at the front edge of the mylar.

As I explained to Ian, The possibility of reflection is limited as that mylar panel is only two feet wide, and stops just at the bottom edge of the frame (which is why it was cropped there).
I could have presented a more complete reflection by shooting from a higher angle, but then defeats my mission here, which was to shoot her profile, and not frontal.

LOL, So in other words a *completely* different shot, eh?

I LOVE this shot. I love the beige but if it was me, and i know it would create an entire new image with a different impact, but i would have worn red or green or a lighter pink or blue or something like that. The beige kind of gets lost around her ankles. Its a FANTASTIC shot, great angle and the lighting is perfect. gorgeous model! Sophie

Oh, I understand now, NJ. Yes, there are shots that are technically excellent, but don't move the viewer. I've had my fair share of those before. ;)
Thanks for the explanation, and for the kind words.

Nice idea, though I think different lingerie and if it showed a full reflection as well as the original model, then it would be great. But that's just me.

Thanks, Avi. Rossi has a degree in fashion design and marketing so when she gets excited about an idea, I listen carefully.
I will tell you that my other shot with Rossi was all my idea, after realizing what stems she brings to the shoot: http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=1430017

Can you elaborate 'strength' ? Do you mean emotional impact?
|

Andrzej Pradzynski
{K:22541} 9/28/2008

Paul, here you are, I see great perfection here. I'm always balancing an impact between perfection and strength - surprisingly those things are not up in the same basket quite often. It's lovely picture indeed, NJ

Yes, the pose WAS her idea; why?
