Wasn't too happy with the quality of the scans - they came up super grainy. Printed on photo paper they look fine, however

Needs higher contrast, and the background is boring and too crowded. I'd either use a narrower DOF with a tighter framing or just get her in front of something more interesting.

But definitely needs higher contrast.

Contrast is easily fixed. As to the background, the only thing of interest is the ancient log she's semi resting on. We were in the bush and there wern't any ferris wheels or anything around. The scrub does seem to give a crowded impression though, cheers. In this picture, I tried to avoid having the sky visible because it was quite a bright day and would have looked screwy in contrast to the rest of the scene.

I really can't stand the flower on her panties. Needs shopping out

strange expression she has on her face...

Good shots. But she needs to be more naked. Get her to take it all off and express her body!

I like that one. Nice tree.

Really like the last one.

The shirt makes it look frumpy and doesn't suit her, the outfit is not very nice in general and the poses look awkward and uncomfortable.
>> Thumper !VFtk2VroH6
>>85311
Agreed. That being said, the ones I posted were the ones she seemed most comfortable with. Don't know why she found it such an ordeal - it was her who sought me out to take the photos
>> LOLOL HURRICANES
needs more naked.

did you go through model mayhem ? I have a few more models contacting me as well for photoshoots.
>> Liska !!LIVFOETqL8j
>>85326

as an add on, what do you use as a model waiver?
>> Thumper !VFtk2VroH6
>>85326
Yeah, its very unusual. It's like within the tortured psyche of every woman lives this little girl who wants to be a model. Present company excluded of course, Liska :P

How is that going btw? I can't wait to see the results. Do you have your previous shoots posted anywhere?
>> Thumper !VFtk2VroH6
>>85327
No, I didn't get a waiver. I wasn't intending to use them for any commercial use so it's not really neccesary. The guidelines for that are really twisted in Australia too. You don't need to get a waiver for a model unless their likeness is going to promote a product. I.e. I could sell one of these images as a postcard and not even tell the model and I'd be on the right side of the law, but if I were selling it as an advert for the clothese she's wearing, I'd have to have her sign away the rights or something.

Okay, the waivers were the one thing i was still trying to figure out. I think i should do one up just in case of a situation- though i highly doubt i'm going to run into anything with it.

>>85328
Heh, you know i can see that. For a lot of women, they strive to be like the women in the magazines, so in the end they really DO want to be a model, whether they like it or not. MM has been a very interesting resource. I have a few trade for shoots coming up, along with one paid. Waiting for things to settle down and a paycheck to come in and then I can go out and shoot. None of the models thus far are in a rush, so we'll go from there.

And you can find a little bit of my last photoshoot on my flickr, www.flickr.com/photos/liskarialeman . I don't have a lot on there, but a bit. it isn't bad for my first model shoot attempt

I think it's part of the "playing dress-up" and "playing with dolls" and "backbiting other girls' appearance" thing that emphasizes appearance so much. They're trained for jealousy.
I always hear that simple seems to be better for waivers. Just make it clear what you plan to use the pictures for.

Which explains why i absolutely hate getting my photo taken, lol.

Oh Liska, I reread your post. I didn't go through any site, I actually hadn't even heard of model mayhem (I thought you were describing an experience *blushes*). The girl was actually an old friend I just ran into a few weeks back. Although I have been considering booking a model from here www.bodymodels.com.au, although I'm not sure if it's worth paying for a model when so many are willing to do it for free. Hmmm

Dunno if i'd go thru model mayhem - it's really myspacey. I really doubt there is much real modelling going on there
