p.1 #1 · Kate in the Early Morning

Took a friend out a little while a go to try some stuff...I wanted a timeless look but ended up just shooting safely and trying new things with PP. So this is more of a little experiment than anything

I tried to process the colors differently than normal which explains the big variance. Anyway, enjoy! Comments welcome as always.

Wow great job on 1, that definitely says timeless IMHO. 5 and 6 are good too. 9 is amazing on the eyes at her eyes. If I may ask what/how did you do that?

These are really nice. Beautiful model, simple but elegant wardrobe and some some great post work with lots of variety.

These are all great but I really like #8 best. Seems like a very natural smile or even photographed as she was laughing.

Yes...well done set! 2 and 4 seem a bit over sat. to me and a little hot off the water.

(1) & (3) have an incredibly timeless quality about them. They could have easily been shot 50 years ago (that is meant to be a compliment

)

Some of these seem to be slightly over exposed...

I do like the post processing for 1-5-7-8

I liked #1 especially although the PP is a little over the top for me. Worth trying a few different looks with that one I feel.

Agreed. I like this image a lot, and would love to see it with different processing.

Thanks all! I appreciate the comments.

A few mentioned the 'hot' tones and some slight oversaturation/overexposure...that actually was intentional in this set (I was trying to push my personal boundaries a little). I ended up trying to get a particular slide-film look with the strong colors.

In number 8 she actually was laughing a little

As for 9, I just processed it rather cool (low color temp in LR) and added a very slight duotone at the end (warm highlights, cool shadows). I also [obviously] overexposed it a fair bit.

She's a good friend and a blast to work with, so I'm glad we were able get some of these.
