Few from last months

Nikolai,

Congrats on your recent work. It's gratifying to see the great continual improvement in your work. I wish you would give us a couple of similar style pictures and then we can deal with those pictures as they deserve. I need to focus on idea.

So can you choose where we are going to start and then we can do the others. I'll just bank the other images. These are too interesting to clump together as they are really different in style and technique. Would you consider doing this and then giving an introduction as to where this picture might help you are the model with say portfolio or some product needs or just artistic fun.

Thanks,

Asher
 
Dear Asher,
thank you for your attention, always appreciated.
These are just four from more that thah a dozen shoots I had over the last few months. Each had its own major theme (both in lighting and styling), plus some variations. I rarely have less than 10 looks per shoot, and often it's 15..20, so we're talking hundreds of different images..
Can you please clarify as to what would you like me to do? I have tons of material (and new ones keep coming almost on a weekly basis), but I'm just not sure how you want me to present it...
TIA :)

Nikolai,

Let's pick Tonary and and discuss your work with her in Still Photo as that makes an impression as a photograph. I think that's the value you were trying to achieve. We can look at more of Carolena in this thread. Let's discuss lighting in Jamey's shoot since this is more complex for lighting.

So if it's O.K. I'll make 3 threads and hold picture # 1. That way you can add another example of each look but keep the topics on their own. We must have one idea per post.

I'm glad you are so productive. We want more than "Wow!" which I can easily say 4 times.

Asher

Hi Nikolai,

I've made two threads and the other two pics you can post in a few days or so. That way we can have focused fun. You might want to add a picture or 2 that is part of the shoot for Tonary and Carolena respectively if they make the grade.

By separating dissimilar images, we can spend better time with each of them and also not get distracted by the strength of one or the tepid nature of another. Thanks for going along with our policy, you're a sport!
