I did the formal senior pictures for my granddaughter this morning.
Very nice, but such a shame the left strap on her top is twisted on both sides... Once seen you can't not see it..

Totally my fault, she had just had her hair done and I’m afraid my attention was on her hair.
Wayne, your photography is great... lighting superb. UHH people can download your setup and get great results... the model could use your beautiful model's poses as a guide. This post is a great cookbook for us.
Young ladies know how to pose... for sure. When teaching I warned the young boys that gazing into a girl's eyes, it could blind them. Svengali was an alluring girl capable of mind control, not the sinister man in the 1931 movie.

As always Wayne you have bonded extremely well with your muse in this series...
And what an alluring muse she is... loving her coquettish smile in the first image, way too cute!
Her Fire Opal ring in the second capture is absolutely dazzling... Albeit here's a tip from way too many beauty genre assignments... While her nail decor is stunning the fact she slightly dimpled the skin on her check is what I've had clients rip my ears off over... Always share with your talent to lighting touch their face then ever so slightly lift their fingers up off the skin surface thereby eliminating their dimple effect.
Any yes the shoulder strap is an issue and a very delicate issue indeed, which is why I typically have a female team member aboard to go in and adjust the strap... However agency models are use to this physical abuse and no need for formalities as such. I've often worked with Tweens and in those scenarios I typically have the talent's "Stage Mom" handle this (make Mom feel empowered) lol
Of this set I believe the third is the charm! Perfect angle... LOVE the 3rd Image!
The fourth image? The iris are slammed way to far over to port side... too much Sclera showing opposite the iris, thus a distraction... However yours and others perception many differ here... but I've had too many hours on set to not notice what works well... Hope this helps or is at least food for thought...
Thank you again for sharing your masterful artistry Wayne... You are a Hero on the People Forum!
Looking forward to your next photo session Wayne

Well…you’re right! I didn’t see it until you mentioned it.

And I bet everyone else’s attention will be on her hair, face, eyes, lips, and smile! Great shots!
