This is Taylor Terranova as Eve in the garden.

Not only was the concept hers but she designed her outfit, then made it, did her makeup and managed to be this gorgeous all in a first shoot. She was even the first model in 3 years to beat me to the meeting place.

Click the first image for her full gallery which is not done yet.

    Three and seven are my favorites of the ones you chose to post. Three being killer in my opinion. In the rest, to my eye, she looks stiff and unnatural. Love the scene and exposure in number two, but not the pose .Are you maybe over directing rather than letting the model get into a comfortable position on her own and then making minor tweaks to make the pose camera friendly?

    I do like others you have in the gallery better than some you posted. She looks like someone fun to work with, with great potential for certain things.

    Thanks Bryce. I always choose the "wrong" frames to post.rolleyes1.gif

    I may have been over directing Taylor a bit but she's somewhat new. Wait till you see her in her two dresses that we also shot. She loosened up quite a bit.

    The photography is certainly competent so I am not going to address this at this time. I see a very pretty girl with a nice body who isn't overly shy, but needs some practice and experience to really do herself justice. She does seem a little stiff, but the big thing for me is her lack of captivating and varying facial expressions.

    I would hope you continue to work with her I see great potential.

    Great comment, Sam. Stole the words right off my keyboard.

    Ditto on her stiffness. I really like #2 and the setting. Great exposures. #3 catches my eye just wish that sky wasn't there. Good stuff.

    Did anyone notice the pose in #1? The view at the bottom of the screen is not pretty. If you intend to use this image at all the skin in that area needs some super duper airbrushing, but it does not flatter her abs either so for me it would be a throw away. She could use a professional make up artist for this scenario too. Geesh such a tough job you have lol.

    Thanks all. Glad to have most of my regulars back for this set.

    VayCay in retrospect #1 is in for a major recrop. Thanks.

    As for the rest, i'm working with her on expressions as we speak before we shoot again. I've got her studying the Coco Rocha video every day. Laughing.gif To me, she has a TON of potential.

    I don't really care for #1... the bottom area is really unflattering. However, #3 is really nice. It looks much looser and more natural than the others. Very pretty girl!
