Artist's Comments

This is from an old shoot, but i have always liked it. I think it's pretty retro, but that isn't such a bad thing. And it's very contrasty for me, but i think it works as a semi-cross-over graphic piece (whatever that means).

As some of you may know i am obsessed with the whole good girl/ bad girl duality....this is Nashia...she represents that duality rather well in real life and in front of the camera.
She has a slight Charlize theron thing going on here....and god damn, is that woman yummy.

Fashion is fun, but fussy to shoot.

(Smaller version please, it's hard to appreciate!)

Good game of contrasts, I really like the shadows on her gown. The composition is interesting but you usually use us to better ;P
Maybe I would have preffered a smaller aperture with everything well focused. Nice work anyhow :clap:

i uploaded a smaller version...sorry about that.
you are probably right about stuff, but this is 7 months into me taking up photog....
not bad. yes, could be better, but i think it has something.

Oooh... nice. I love the light and dark contrast ^^ And the tattoo on her arm really shows off the duality with the dress.

cool shot, angle and pose are perfect ... maybe best if her feet were not cut off? Just an idea, great work nonetheless :clap:

This is a great photo! I love the angle and the composition. Very visually appealing.

it's just all lines which makes it a great image, black and white too

looking at this shot is like looking at broken perfection. perfection 'cause of the forms (i'm said to be a form-addict person, i don't know, at least i don't remember, i haven't taken photos for more weeks). Broken 'cause of the face. I just miss something from her face, maybe a more unequivocal feeling, i'm not sure, i'm too tired to think on it.
