Nicely done photo. Is the model actually so deformed with shoulders all hunched forward?

Thank you for your kind words Leo_B... they are greatly appreciated!
"...Would love to see more from the shoot..." Sadly I was only the makeup artist and lighting assistant on this session. The image above was actually a quick grab shot for my Makeup Artistry portfolio...
The photographer on this session was looking for a more "glamour" narrative thus I asked if I could take one quick image for my book. Below is the final crop I added to my MUA portfolio.
My initial posted image was for the talent on this shoot.
However it showcases a tad more "skin" than appropriate for an MUA's book.
Hope this makes sense Leo_B.
My apologies for not have more imagery of this young lady.
She certainly does have exceptional porcelain skin tones...

It seems that so much portrait photography is predicated around the artistic - high key, low key, shadow placement . . .
It’s refreshing to see an image like this with nothing hidden. Great model, great expression, great lighting, sharp, clean
One question - shot at ISO 800, what might be the maximum print size for this image?

Thank you so much for your continued support Raymond it is truly appreciated as are your kind words!
"...shot at ISO 800, what might be the maximum print size for this image?" raymondh I've printed up to 40x60 inches on this camera (Nikon D300) with excellent results at ISO 200... However at ISO 800 I'm pushing the limit of acuity for large prints. I only take an APS-C body on my MUA gigs (so as to not upstage the photographer) since he was paying the team. The D300 tops out at ISO 800 for decent acuity... 1600 and above is seriously wanting for shadow detail.
Since this was only to be posted on Wedding Wire and my other social media platforms ISO 800 was way more than enough. The images posted here were 300dpi at 6x9 and 6x6 inches respectively.
FYI The D300 can hold it's own against FF at it's basement ISO 200 so it's totally doable in a studio scenario.
Again many thanks for asking and your kind words...
All the best on your journey!

Did you check out the Porsche's, I am rather fond of them.

Don Porsche is another iconic roadster and way beyond my humble means...
I was finally able to graduate from a Hillman Minx half rag top to an MGA with I dearly loved...
Year's later to a Triumph Spitfire... I actually could afford both those "previously owned" sports roadsters.
In my wildest dreams Porsche would have been nice... lol
Thanks again... Cheers! Thomas
