I can see why she would be your favorite model, Pat.  I think she just
became my favorite model also. :)

Thanks,

Re: Your favorite model, your ideal model

2002-01-06 Thread Gianfranco Irlanda

Now, that's an interesting question...

My favorite model is Laura, a friend of mine. I should say "was"
my favorite model, until she got married... :-(
Although not a pro, she could pose exactly like a pro (even
better...).

My ideal model...
Audrey Hepburn, no doubt.

I have too a huge poster of her here, Frank, although not in my
bathroom... :-)

The lady who owns the farm we have our horse at has asked
me to get candid portraits of her two daughters as she has very
few since leaving teenhood for adulthood.I;v managed a few(they bolt
on camera sight)but now i have some newer(to me )prime M42's
i hope to get more for her.They both are very photogenic and make  lovely
B&W subjects.
As far as who i would like to tackle:Ozzy Osborne or any of the Pythons.
B&W of coarse.

Ooo, Collin,

You've hit the nail right on the head.  I have a serious Audrey Hepburn
fetish (no, not THAT kind of fetish!).  She is the most beautiful
creature ever to have graced this earth.  I have the joy of staring at
her poster hanging in my bathroom.  And her calendar in my kitchen.

Of course being dead poses a problem.  I'll have to give some thought to
living persons.  Gwyneth Paltrow comes to mind, especially when she had
that short hair in "Sliding Doors", but then she let her hair grow out,
so maybe not.

I'll think about it and possibly post later tonight.

As far as Favourite So Far:  any of my three kids, with my most recent
ex-girlfriend a close second.

Here's something just for fun again:
For those who do or have shot portraits,
who was your favorite model?
who would be your ideal model?

My favorite was a mischievous little boy.
My ideal; Audrey Hepburn.  Pure elegance.
