Alexandra

Yuri Pautov

I met her at our Spartak entertaining center (the place where my office is).
Asked if I can take some photos. After some days we met for a short session.
Unfortunately, Alexandra (her name) brought not the best dress with her... (thats what SHE thought will be good for photo session - do you remember Bible's story of Esther?)
But.. we have what we have...
1 dissonance of dress and the environment

2 I have tried this in b&w but decided to leave it in color...

3 Yes... red is too red always :-)

4 I like her pose and expression here, but again this dress...



Your thoughts - now you know that Yuri also makes mistakes :-)


Spasibo,
Yuri

first off, nice subject.
#3 has to many distracting lighting highlights in her eyes. Its the only thing I don't like about that one.
#2 is a nice headshot.
#4 Why not try a high-key shot in PS in B/W. Play around with the channel mixer and the various presets settings.

Cheers,
David

Pretty young lady wearing a young ladys dress...works for me.
Love number 2. Really shows off her beauty. Perfect picture!
Love her eye color.
The last one the light is a little bright.
You are lucky you can approach beautiful women in Russia and they will let you take their picture...
