Got some help from some friends to put this shoot together. The idea of the project is to change mood through the use of color. This is my first time doing "studio" type shooting, so yeah, uh, be nice? Ha.
The model is my roommate.

Hi there.

I like to concept and the job done by the model. BUT I really dont like the background. you should have gone for seamless background. It doesnt cost much for the results it yealds.

Also, be careful of the shadows. Your model does a lot of crouching stance which create shadows on the rest of the body. You would need a strong difuser / lightbox to get right of them without loosing the mood of the pics.

Anyways, good job! Its always fun to see something different!

I appreciate the feedback, but most of what you mentioned was not in the budget. This is an intro level class, and I already spent $200 on the stuff you see in these shots.

I totaly understand. Bu you asked for comments ;-)

Seriously, you should build yourself a lightbox. Super easy, the only challenge is to find a fabric that would be a nice difuser. In the long run, it will pay for itself.
