This is Kimberly, a 24 year old model that I have worked with in the past. Image shot using three lights and one reflector. She was a great model and was able to contort her body very well. I am hoping this will do well, but there are some amazing photographers in the DPL, so I will be pleased with a mid the pack finish.

This is great from about hips up. I love her face and the arch of her back. The dress is gorgeous as is her hair/makeup. I love the lighting. The problem with the image is the position of her legs and how that makes the dress pull around her knees. It also seems to detract from her overall presence in the image, which from the hips up is very stark. To me this image is about the dress and her face, but the shoes/legs distract me. If she were turned just slightly more toward the camera, this would be really great: she'd also fill up more of the image on the left, which would strengthen the image as well.
Excellent, one of my top 3 for sure and a completely different league then most of the shots in this challenge. Well done!
Excellent model and pose make this stand out straight away. The lighting is also excellent but I would have preferred a little more contrast in the shot, particularly on the background
