Default First Glamour (Testing)

ayt, here's another question. First time to shoot like this. Both of us have no clue how to pose so we decided for her to look away from the camera and do whatever pose she is comfortable with. Questions:

1. Do she look like uncomfy in the shot?
2. Color, tone, and etc., should i darken this picture?

Thanks in advance guys.

yes,
annoying to look at because she seems upside down and i want to tilt my head to see it properly.
rotate it to portrait orientation and it will be better.

her mouth is open showing braces.
not your typical glamour look so i'd say dpnt show the pearly whites until the braces come off

the hand chopped off and protruding into the frame doesnt work for me

to me, glamour brings images of big sexy eyes.. i dont see that here..
i'm sure she has geat eyes but we just cant connect with them

the lighting and coloring looks RIGHT on! Technically reviewing this phoo, it looks awesome.

Not crazy about the pose. Too much going on with it. I'm actually kind of extremely uncomfortable with the pose. I don't do glam, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. It was suggested to me to start flipping thru some glamour magazines. pick out stuff you both like and tear them out and try to recreate it, with a little twist or flare... I think that's a good place to start.

The pose looks like she's upside down (because she is in the photo). It makes it hard to look at.

You might also do something about the braces on the teeth.

Exposure, WB, etc. looks dead on. Nice (technically) shot.

a little darkening would have helped with her skin tone. I like the position and how her hand is being carried. Her eyes could have been open more and the braces are a little distratting but not much. Overall very good
