Striking images, Thomas. At first I was a little uncomfortable with the Gothic motif....
Then I closed in on the face, beyond the hair and hands, and WOW!
Thanks for the "wow" factor srt101fan... and yes this is actually a beauty narrative masquerading as editorial fashion... again many thanks for your review and reflection... it is indeed appreciated...
Love the portraits, hate the "bugs".
Beautiful images of a beautiful girl - very well done!
chip94 I appreciate you taking the time to review and comment...
And your very kind thoughts here...
AZNikon I appreciate and cherish your feedback...
Thank you for taking the time to respond...
yssirk123 totally agree with your kind thoughts on this talent's beauty...
She was a joy to collaborate with... and only seventeen...
Thomas
I aspire to take pics at your level of performance.
Smile,

Bravo Zulu
Many thanks for the glowing compliments Jimmy T they are indeed greatly appreciated...
And like most other crafts... practice... lots of applied practice and assisting other commercial shooters in my market has been my path... seems to be a common denominator for many of my colleagues within the industry...
All the best on your journey Jimmy T...

Thomas, I especially love the lack of over processing the images. It's nice to actually see texture in the skin.
I also love the light, and attention to all the details with hand position, etc.
Thank you so much for your very kind words bkyser... although this was a team effort, much credit goes to other members of the collaborative...
btw, this talent was agency so post processing skin smoothing is verboten... i.e forbidden... ignoring this will likely result in an end of access to the agency's "New Faces" board for testing... likewise if the talent significantly alters their hair length or color they will need to get imagery that reflects same for their agency... When a client books an agency model for an assignment they need to arrive on set looking exactly as "advertised"... hope this makes sense...
