Shena, a girl with a lot of charisma, good company and with a heck of a figure.

Shena has built up quite a varied portfolio - this one is my personal favourite >>

I had great difficulty deciding whether this picture looked best in black and white, I settled for a slightly modified colour scheme, which adds to the impact of quite a strong composition.

Shena's shadow makes part of the image, the main thrust of which pulls the eye from side to side and top to base in a zigzag, which isn't entirely a closed loop.

something that you could look at for a while and not get bored.

O.K. so its just a good composition, but composition really makes or breaks a picture. in this case, it makes the picture (so does Shena !).

 

composition is a subject in itself, at it's simplest and oft quoted level, (the rule of thirds) every point of interest ought to appear at a place approximately one third into the picture - try it - divide the picture into thirds and see if I did it according to that rule . . . .

The sting in the tail . .. . . the rule of thirds is not the only way of composing a picture, a more accurate method is to use the golden mean . . that works on something closer to two fifths (or forty percent for the metricated among us) once you suss that one out, there are many more ways of composing to work on . .

Louise.

very pretty girl - very blonde
(in the nicest possible way)
with a very sensible head on her shoulders.

 

seen to the left in a simple portrait,
I like the texture of the mouldy old wall - it's a good foil / contrast to the smooth skintones and silky hair.

 

Louise came to the studio with an idea of a picture involving rose petals.

we went through heaps of variations
(and petals) in pursuit of results.

results : below.

 

oddly enough - the picture to the left has no petals

it wasn't planned so carefully as the petals shot

but it works equally well.

I like the swirly lines formed by hair and it's shadow

I also like the introspective look on Louise's face

 

it looks like more than just a model photo . . .
