Default Future Model? BW Portrait

Took some shots for fun of a girl I know the other day. She said she was awkward in front of the camera (don't they always?) but she was such a natural! She's a junior now- but I'll definitely be calling her again when it's time to shoot senior reps for the class of 2011. Just wanted to share my favorite shot from our session:


I've been playing around with new BW conversions so I'd love to hear some comments on this one. It's a little different than my normal conversions and it's one of the first times I've used my own actions- so input would be great!

Yes she is! She thinks she's not very pretty though! I'm so jealous of her looks.

thanks! that wall is one of my favorite finds. I live in a small town and normally I go to Kansas City to take pictures- but I found this wall right in town behind our very very small main street!

Don't think of me s a creep or anything


But I am 15, In Canada and our years are different in school (naming wise) so I don't know what grade she is in. However I think she is pretty, and has a lot of potential

She feels awkward maybe cause she is not used to it, maybe gender, age difference, maybe surroundings, or shes just not comfortable.


Anywho she looks good, and the picture is great :P
