The lighting on Jack's face is terrific. It's direction as well as the amount is very good. His shirt, hand and the chair are a little too hot and distract somewhat from his face. If you can, I'd try to tone them down a bit. Another suggestion would be having him wear a solid color dark shirt. I have found that in portraiture, costuming is important and many times, especially when taking close ups, plain and simple is best. |

An excellent model. The lighting on his face is good and shows great detail and is perfect for this kind of a portrait of a man. The lighting on his front sleeve makes this the brightest part of the image and distracts from his face. You have done a good job of keeping detail in the sleeve, so maybe using a Go Between would tone it down without you having to change your lighting set up. A little separation from his head and the background would be nice. In this case, the black background is a good choice and a well aimed hair light would take care of the lack of separation.. |

The lighting on Yukata is nice and the pose very interesting as well as photographically challenging. I do wonder what she is trying to tell us. She almost looks defiant, but I can't be sure. The light on the window is fairly bright and draws the viewer's attention away from Yukata. I am finding with my own photography as I do with this image that many black models end up with an orange tint to their skin that I don't notice in real life. One of my models complained about it, so until I find a better solution, I have been reducing the saturation. |

Good colors and it's good that the model is looking back at the camera. I wonder if you have over smoothed his skin. A few wrinkles might make the picture more believable. If possible could you have included more or all of the guitar. The background is fantastic, especially the dog, |

This image is technically well done. His expression is great. I'm not sure if the background helps or hinders. I find myself studying it. Maybe if it was out of focus it would strengthen the picture. |

It was her idea to jump, so I didn't feel too sorry for her. The weights are ours and it was my idea to add them. It took us 6 tries to get what she wanted. I was trying to get a 100% freeze and was worried that it might not work out. This was taken in the daytime and I was afraid that the room might not be dark enough, but it was. If I do this again I'll see if I can show some motion blur. |
