What the heck is wrong with the model in the first one?????
In a recent post I mentioned that I find shooting women with their lips seperated makes a better picture, I think he may have read it and took it too far :P

Sure the model is odd looking, but holey smoke, no one has commented on how completely shite those portraits are. The light, camera position colour and contrast as something you would expect from a 9 year old with a disposable.

My eyes hurt.... and although I agreed with Rentham about dissing others... this is something I cannot let slide by.

Funny, we just finished watching a DVD with Kristen Stewart co-starring and I have to say - well - er - for a moment there I thought she was almost going to act.

Make up ain't going to help. She needs one of these, am afraid:



It makes me look better and makes a great conversational piece anywhere.

i would sue for false advertising.. lol

and yes the portraits as a whole were indeed shocking, only noticed once i could bring myself to look at them again...

if that is indeed his real work it proves to me that none of the images on his FB page are infact his as they are majorly a step up from those portrait pics.

Gormless! Exactly the word I'd have used to describe her! The vacant expression and poor posture almost make you not notice the poor angles and terrible lighting.
