Re: PESO - Jess (one for the lads)
Very nice Dave. Maybe a tad more light on the side of the face, but that's it.

For me it's a lovely photo. If it could be bettered I believe that Bong could be right.

RE: PESO - Jess (one for the lads)
Good posing and a good capture of expression. Obviously a good rapport with the model, lack of which can be a real killer of a portrait session. The main light looks a little too low, giving an uppishness to the light and shadow effects. The catchlights in Jess's eyes show that most of the softbox was below her head, whereas most of it should be above her head, with only enough below to moderate the shadows which should naturally fall downward. So you see too much highlight under the tip and bridge of her nose and her top lip has a shadow line above it. I also think it was too far away, a soft box's diffusion is diminished by too much distance, which is why the light isn't wrapping as smoothly into the shadows as it should, why dimples and small defects are visible, and why people are commenting about dark shadows. Still, it's a good shot worth looking at.

Re: PESO - Jess (one for the lads)
Nice shot. But like Christian, I'd like to see more fill on the shadow side of her face. Just a close in reflector would have picked up a lot of light from the background.

I find the shadows too deep for something against a white background; I would have either filled in the shadows or use a dark background. Cheers!
