assignment 3

Comment by Artyste:
You've mimicked the overall feel really well, I do have to say. Two things that really stand out to me as differences are the sharpness on your model (yours are softer at the focal points than Jinky Arts), and the lighting (These seem a little flat to me.) With a little more work in the sharpness and contrast areas (with a boost in overall lighting), I think you'd really hit the mark. As it is, they're great shots, but as I said, those are two critical points that I see and feel fall a little short.

I love your eye and your feel for child portraiture though. We're hoping to move away from child portraitures in the next few assignments (We never really wanted to focus on it, but most people here have kids and seemed to stick with them, so Jinky Art felt like a natural choice).
So get ready to show us your studio work :)

hi Kevin...this is a great shot and your editing is very good! this is a classic pose and it always works well. when i first looked at it, i didn't care much for the reflective floor but the more i see it, i do like it. my only nit about it is that it feels a bit too dark in comparison to the bright white BG. also, his face seems a little too shadowed against that white background. i played around a bit with it and this is what i came up with...very subtle changes but it seems to balance things out. whatcha think?

Nice photo, maybe a bit more contrast would have helped a bit on the flat side to me.

I like this one a lot - a lovely portrait. I'm glad her hair isn't wet - her hair looks fantastic. My only criticism is a few hints of close-up flash. These could be fixed easily enough in Photoshop.

Not a flattering pose in this photo - if you like the expression on the face is there anyway to crop out the arms and the armpits?

For my money, this one is the best of the bunch. Next time get her to dip her head in the water and then bring it up rapidly, you'll need to do it with continuous shoot mode mind.

Nice clear shot, a little bit more of a smile or sexy glint in the eye from the model would help.

Underarms don't do this one any favours, might wanna try a healing brush under there.
