I like to challenge myself with getting a wide variety of moods and styles, and occasionally will have a shoot that's intentionally free form (which is essentially what this shoot was).
For now, here is a small taste of my images with Jessica, all of which are from the same three hour session.
This is a a very refreshing series. You have definitely captures her many moods ... it is nice to see a set of images that are distinctly not part of the normal formula we commonly see on FM.
This is probably one of my favorite sets I've seen in a while. Beautiful variety, expressions, and creativity. For my own editorial work, this set is immensely inspiring for me. Thank you for sharing
I like the series, but 8 really bugs me. Feels like a weird gaussian blur application to me. Given the angle of her face I bothers me because her mouth should be in about the same focus plane as at least one of her eyes. Since both eyes, her nose, and the veil are all tack sharp, the depth of field is huge --- which makes the amount of blur on the mouth and chin seem far out of whack. Also the blur on the veil makes no sense when you have the closest part of the veil sharp, and blur parts that are between that closest part and her eyes. Since the eyes are sharp, all of the that veil has to be sharp as well. Finally, the amount of blur on the mouth and chin creates an impression that they must not even be part of her face --- like two images were joined at the bottom of the veil. Maybe a vignette would work better to isolate the eyes.
