    I think she'd look better without those bangs.

    LOL I was thinking more on the lines of the photography and graphic editing...but bang-less works great too.

    I don't know very much about photography to judge.
    I do think it's fun to edit pictures and take pictures. But that's as far as I've ever gone with it. :)

    I never as another photographer about my work...I always ask someone to look at what I do outside of the scope of what a photographer might see.

    One doesn't need to be a painter to appreciate a painting just as one doesn't need to be a sports card river in order to love the sound of an engine.

    I think it looks melted. Which looks awesome in motion but as a still I'm not feeling it. I like your bike pics better.

    I was trying to get as mulchy as possible without losing texture. I'm going to try again with another model.

    Right....in this case I had to turn them up a little bit more.

    I was in a room with off pink carpet, a brown rung, and a pinkish-wall. LOL.....I grey carded it ands till came up........REALLY warm, I tried to use just enough flash to get rid of the pink tint.

    Hahh, you know...you could aim for a septia color. It's genuine and gives off a retro, tasteful sort of Interracial Love magazine.

    Those images are VERY beautiful, but all that bright coating has to shed or at least stick within the person's frame and not like it's being shot out from her. I love the pictures nonetheless and you have an excellent artistic sense.

    right...thank man. this was my first attempt, I only touch PS for light adjustment, thought I'd try it out. I have another shoot next weekend I'll see if the client want something "fresh"

    ....I'm been doing a lot of "for my boyfriend" shots lately.

    That does seem like it. It's a good portfolio. Maybe you can have your erotic magazine business that specializes in Interracial relationships. What say you?

    These are pretty good, though I like the second set you better than the first. The texture works better in those.

    The problem is when I do add nudity, and not even nudity, just LOOKS like nudity, the magazine doesn't sell. I have to admit the last covers were shit, but 5 issues I did over 10,000 copies. My last issue was by for that best, best cover, best layout....I sold......close to 500 copies.

    The nudity kept that issue off of my main page.

    ohhhh thank you. Hey Tam, what part of Texas do you live?

    North-central--pretty close to the Dallas area

    Ok, well...everyone keeps telling me "Texas" is where its at...all I know is, Its hot.

    LOL

    LOL
    I think that depends on what part of Texas it is. I live close to my parents to help them out in what I call Redneck City which isn't so hot. Thankfully I don't live too far from civilization. ;)
