...and as usual the lighting and execution are flawless, but IMO
the hair and makeup in this set are catastrophic.

But what do I know; I shoot soccer.

is not always clean beauty, sometimes we actually cover the model
in dried up mud and still call it fashion, if she looks good I may
still say its verging on beauty, but at the moment I am branching
out a bit here and there from strict beauty/glamour to edgy
fashion, its what my market dictates, I prefer clean beauty myself
but hey I only shoot what pays the most so I have to evolve with
the market even if the markets taste seems to be bad to me. ;-)

Well OK, these are more fashion than beauty but in my eye they
still fall under the catagory of Beauty.

So anyway I am Just posting a few new shots for your thoughts and
comments. This was one real fast test, just one look and I am
still having a hard time determining what color temp I like the
pictures better in, or maybe B&W or sepia, its tough but with a
model this photogenic it was so easy to get great shots. These are
pretty much as shot, this is what a model should look like,
retouching not needed! A rare find, she reminds me of what models
use to look like when retouching was not as easy and acceptable as
today, the models use to be more flawless, features more defined
and skin more perfect.

Let me know what you think and as always questions and comments are
welcome.

heres the link to a few shots and a few variations on color.

Sorry a 1/4 cto is a gel placed on the lights, usually I get 20x24"
sheets, CTO= Color Temp Orange which changes the color temp from
daylight (5500 degrees) to tungsten ((2900 degrees) = 1 full cto
so 1/4 cto is less of a conversion it changes daylight (5500
degress) to 4500 degrees so it warms up the hair light which at
times can appear cold.
