Hi Melanie - just come across this series of photos - they are superb and have real drama to them - something of a byegone cinematic era which I presume was your intention! - well done - Regards Jeff

I've liked all three of these captures. Once again good composition, light works well and nice serious expression.

Lea, no, I'm not offended, I appreciate it. She actually wanted to do fingernails, but we got a late start with the hair and makeup since she had to do homework  ( I will definitely keep it in mind for next time, though ;o)
Also, the bright spot you are referring to, is that on the inner corner? If so those are little rhinestones I added to her makeup, only they didn't photograph as nicely as I'd hoped.
Thanks for commenting!

I really like the lighting, expression and composition. Nice work!!!
Two "nit-pick" things...next time have her wear fake fingernails...the short nails don't go with the glamour pose! and...easy to fix..there is a very tiny bright spot at the corner of her left eye...airbrush or clone it out.
Don't be offended...(I only feel inclined to nit pick if I think it's already a super good photo!)

Tiff, I didn't use a flash at all. I used a tall lamp that stood just over hear head.
Thanks for the comment!! We did this late last night.

Dear Melanie,
I did like this starlet shot.. So soft and so nice shot.. Colors ans light on the skin is very good and I also liked the way your capturing her glance at the right time.
Congratulations my friend and best wishes,
CAgatay

Starlet 3 does it for me. This one doesn't transcend like that one. Nice work/series.

This is my favorite of the three. Very nice portrait work and Gabbi looks great! You achieved the throw back starlet look. I like the lighting. Where did you place the lamp and did you use a fill flash or just the lamp? Great work!
