Description
I'm so proud. Took me about three hours to do, not including make up. That was about an hour due to ALOT of mess ups
Model:
TRUE HDR, composed of three images. took some tinkering in photoshop but that was mainly to even out the skin tone and make sure everything looked right.
Thank you Amanda

As you placed this into the NoMercy folder that means you want a brutally honest Critique from #thephotographyunion
As a document of your makeup technique the photo succeeds. The lighting could have been richer. I suggest moving the single source light you used on the shot such that it is more off to the camera's left and a just a bit higher. From the models perspective it would look just left of straight into her face at she is turned in the photo. You have good light on the makeup and show more contour of the models face making it a bit more interesting as a photograph not just a documentation of you work.

Wow! thanks so much, I was actually expecting ALOT worse of a critique.
You said richer lighting, how could I go about doing that? Do you mean from how to angle the lighting like you mentioned, or maybe a different source of light all together? and Thank you very much for your insight

I went over that in pretty good detail. Her is an excerpt from my original crit...

That's awesome! I love the colors and the HDR work! Very rainbowy!
I wish I could do make up like that *I suck at doing make up lmao*
Was your model happy?

Thanks alot! Yeah, she really likes it
It was pretty fun doing the make up, she sat there laughing at me and making fun of me because of the faces I was making and the sound effect I added when I'd put make up on her.
Mind you...I didn't REALIZE I was doing it per say

I can tell you had fun! Alot of sparkly!
I always make sound effects and more from what Colin says when I'm doing anything really, I don't know it though.
Well you learned something new! *that you make sound effects*

I hardly ever wear makeup, but I still have quite a bit... just not of anything exciting.

That's about as exciting as it gets.
I used to have a fun colorful palette, but it was kind of my friends that I just kept... forgetting to give back to her... :'D

It's actually the HIP brand eyeliner. I love that line just because of how vivid their colors are!

You did a great job! Usually you have to be really careful with the vivid colors because they smudge so easily and get all over the place. But it's so controlled and really elegant. Very beautiful. ^^
