p.1 #1 · A Head shot, A Fun Shot and An Art Shot..., Oh My!
1, A pretty typical portrait/head shot and Ashlyn is a natural for these.
2, Just a fun shot trying to make unorthodox use of my prop. It was a bit of a challenge to get her completely on iy without showing to much strain of holding the pose.
3, A shot I've done many times. Depending on the models flexibility this pose can be pretty challenging as it was here. Interestingly I never mention this pose but my models arrive already wanting to do it since they've seen it in my portfolio. It's a fav pose.
Critique and suggestions are always welcome!

Alll three are really nice images, John. I'm most partial to 1 & 3. My only critique would be to clean up some of stray hairs on her chest in #1. Well done!

Story, thanks so much for the valuable input. To be honest I don't clean those stray hairs not because I think they add anything in any way but because my PP skills are not good enough to clone them off of the skin without leaving areas that would be obvious that they were worked on. In other words it would look worse with my poor skills! Thanks

A gorgeous woman with very beautiful hair and your portrayal of her is a compliment to your vision and passion for the craft! Good work!

David, thanks so much for the encouraging words. I always try to keep my craft going forward by challenging myself with what and how I shoot! The risk there is that it doesn't always work but the gain is that it keeps one's work from always looking the same!!!
Thanks
John
