Default My 1st "Trash The Dress" photo Shoot

Hey everyone, I know...It's been a long time.Iv'e been having difficulty with uploading on flickr. I would like to share these pics with you...In my opinion, they are the best Portrait pics I've taken..this was so much fun and Lauren was fantastic to shoot. This was shot behind my house on the River...Please be very honest with your opinions

For the first one. I love the composition and the idea having the subject behind the boots is really interesting. To my personal taste, it needs just a pinch of salt (contrast).
The second one is a bit overprossesed and the soft focus obstructs the beauty of your model.
The selective coloring in the third one is great! That is my favorite of the set.
Thanks for sharing!

Kim,
She is a stunning model and you certainly brought out her beauty. I love the last shot and it gives me the feeling of watching a lovely mermaid.

Very nice. I like the Trash the Dress concept. Very interesting. I like the selective coloring of the last two. It emphasizes the model and the dress. Very well done.
