Artist's Comments

Lovely new model Pia . . . for a knitwear magazine test shoot

Critiques


:icongimmyfood:
I'm new to this critique thing, but I'll give this my best shot!

There are a few things that I really like in this photo, from the soft colours of the scene and the breath taking eyes of the model.

Even if I didn't not have prior knowledge of what the shoot was for this shot still screams "I'm warm, comfy and happy". This promotes knitwear exactly how one could imagine it. :) I certainly get the feeling of warmth from it... In fact, I makes want one of those scarfs for the winter... However I think I would attract some strange looks in public though!

So let's look at the image. The lighting (assuming from a window) brings soft lines and disposes of any harsh shadows. The bounce back light from the wall has provided a warm glow from behind tying in the soft cool colours of the scarf.

At first your drawn to her eyes, the smile then to the railing/post obstructing her arm. I was wondering if it possible to have moved to avoid it being in the shot? Maybe you could have grabbed that saw from the shed and removed it more permanently?

To me, it's telling a warm story :) Which reminds me, I need to put the electric blanket back on my bed!

She's lovely....the scarf definitely works on her. :) There's a brightness & energy in her face that compliments the knitwear. Nice balance of softness and light (between the model & her accessory). The white top really makes it pop too, I think.

Thanks a lot Jason. She's very young - but quite lovely.
