Greetings from the critique club :)

Well this shot I like! I don´t love it though, the tilt of the head along with the hair gives me the impression that I too should shake that hair out of my face :) Nice lighting though, looks completely natural and nice use of a reflector. The eyes are kindof too dark for my taste, think I would have liked this shot better if you had brightened them up a bit. The composition is good, I like that it´s tightly framed. I personally would have increased the contrast though but I completely understand why you didn´t, that´s just a personal preference of mine.

The model is doing a good job too, the hair doesn´t seem to bother her in the least and she´s got a nice connection to the camera, I like the hand there so coudos to her.

Anyway, you know what you are doing so I´ll leave it at that.

Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus.

Very nice portrait...love the hair placement and the deep blue eyes! My only criticsm may be the the tonal range of the skin: a little too unnaturally pinkish - but great shot overall!

its a nice photo but i can't help but feel the hair wouldn't fall over her face that way considering the way her head is tilting.. maybe just me lol.. i still like the photo, just feel the hair has been deliberately placed wrong... but as i say, still a nicely taken photo and the model is beautiful...

pretty model. The positioning of this seems a bit awkward though... like the way her head is tilted I keep thinking her hair should be falling the other way... unless this is mid movement? I dunno, it just seems purposely there instead of having a natural flow to it. The lighting is pretty and soft though and warms her skin tones nicely.
