bien!

This is an extremely human shot of a lovely model, the tattoo says "Always in repair, made to..." I think maybe the final word is "Last?" this shot tells us more about the lovely model and her life or more so maybe her past?... her left arm shows the delicate fine scars of self-harm, a condition associated with mental health conditions such as extreme depression and self-loathing amongst possible physical associated trauma's in life. She really is lovely and I suspect this shot maybe indirectly associates with her past?. this is possibly the most powerful shot of a model I have seen on here... very real and very human but certainly not pretentious.

This was a 4 hour long shoot in which I really felt a synergy with this beautiful woman. Communication is so interesting in this situation and it is never the same from one shoot to another. In this case I would make a posing suggestion and she would not only achieve my idea but take it one step farther along the path that I wanted to go, but did not want to overtly state. In this way we sort of danced from one visual concept to the next and I feel that it provided many opportunities for her to change direction without directly objecting to my idea. These themes are very personal to her, and what she portrays is honest and I hope that shows in the final work. She is older than the typical model which adds a wonderful aspect to the process as there are things that are made stronger and more complex with experience. I am so happy that some of all that is coming through in the final image. Thank you.

Preciosa... Excelente!!!!
