My first shoot of 2010 - Marta

[leek]

First few images from my first shoot of 2010.
A 2 hour hotel shoot with Marta Dabrowski, covering a variety of styles.

she's gorgeous you must of had fun
for critique
the last image is your best but the reflection shortens her a little and widens her thighs , depending on where the strobe is placed you make the water not look transparent to mask her bottom half but the expression and angle of her upper bit is all good

3rd one she looks uncomfortable in her expression

was this shot at ahotel or at sydney tower?

Thanks Wendell... 69th floor of World Tower... An apartment and the pool... We had quite a few spectators in the pool, which may account for her expression

John,

So these are to help sell apartments, right?

I do not like the third one; the reflections spoil the image, making it very confusing and difficult to discern what is reflection and what is model. Did you not have a CPL handy?

[leek]

Gary, CPL is not part of my normal kit for these shoots, but maybe it will be in future...

At the time, I was more concerned about keeping the 72+ people in the pool away from my model, and to stop them making derogatory remarks... Only took a few shots in the pool as a result and I wish I'd had more time...

The apartment was the main focus for this shoot and more will follow if you all like them...

Great set there Leek, glad to see your photos again. I would have to agree about the reflections in the pool, real shame about spectators.
