Bill from Los Altos, United StatesStephen. You must track Jesse down from wherever she may be, and continue this very artistic series. She is a stunning beauty that you bring to life with your photos. Well done all around. 21 Apr 2009 5:18am @Bill: The hounds have been released (electronically) - and she'll report in before long. Mirko Herzner from GermanyPerfect. Jesse lost in thought... Wonderful colors and composition. 21 Apr 2009 5:32am Alun Lambert from cheshire, United Kingdoma very nice image, lovely light in her face 21 Apr 2009 5:45am yz from Budapest, Hungaryvery beautiful, the warm sunlight on her face and hair and the cold colours in the background makes it poetic. 21 Apr 2009 6:35am Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, SpainSplendid portrait: all the light of the day in her face. I like very much the composition and DOF, the blurry background and the sharp details of the wonderful Jesse and the great combination of colors in her dresses, all in honor of her hair of fire. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for posting it. 21 Apr 2009 6:58am @Paco Díaz: Such a wonderful response - thank you, Francisco. Thank you also for the kind comment you left on my website. It is a pleasure to share experiences on AM3 with you. Karthik from Chennai, IndiaLove the composition in this one. Well framed with the bay in the background. 21 Apr 2009 8:00am Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United StatesNo wonder you miss her! Your friend Jesse is a natural model. This is first-rate stuff; intense emotional projection in her expression, great posture, excellent colors. Movie star quality. And a gifted photographer, who managed some super DOF in leaving that background of boats and water just slightly out of focus. 21 Apr 2009 11:03am @Viewfinder: Intense emotional projection, indeed - plus the considerable fire in her spirit, which comes through in much of her work. She has a great natural talent and real substance in her being which just radiates - camera or not. Mike from Lichfield, United KingdomA great photo. The background is fantastic against Jesse. 21 Apr 2009 11:10am Marcie from United StatesGorgeous portrait. Love the light and how you've photographed her against the neutral background. 21 Apr 2009 12:19pm @Marcie: Hi there, Marcie - good to hear from you - thanks. Mariana from waterloo, CanadaGorgeous ! MOdel and then blury background are just fantastic !!! 21 Apr 2009 1:29pm Anthony Morgan Lambert from Bielefeld, GermanyA very dramatic shot,great pose and a very nice backdrop !! 21 Apr 2009 1:58pm sherri from Little Rock, Arkansas, United StatesShe's a lovely model. Beautifully done with that background so subtle behind her. 21 Apr 2009 2:22pm dobbino from Cape Town, South AfricaVery nicely done - I really like the pale, almost washed out background - it makes your subject pop. 21 Apr 2009 2:52pm Tracy from La Selva Beach, United StatesYou are lucky to have such a wonderful relationship, it shows in the photographs. These are all gorgeous. This is my favorite so far...stunning light, and the background lends some mystery to the feeling of this. Just beautiful! 21 Apr 2009 3:00pm @Tracy: Thanks so much, Tracy. I love doing model work to relax away from the 'business' of photography. Jesse is an inspiration. Susan from Fort Lauderdale, FL, United Statesa stunning shot of Jesse.....but i wish the background was a bit less "harsh" in color.....But that's just me, right??? 21 Apr 2009 4:12pm @Susan: 'harsh'??? This does have me questioning the monitor you're viewing this on. The background is very subtle grays - with mere hints of blues and creams. It almost a dull monochrome. I only write this that you may need to calibrate the screen if you are really seeing something harsh here. Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, FranceBeautiful portrait. Like the pose against the discreet background, all in suggestion, and the light on her face. 21 Apr 2009 5:49pm @Evelyne Dubos: Thanks, Evelyne - it is so nice to hear from you. willow from Chelsea, United StatesSomething haunting in her gaze and the washed out background. Very emotional image (or maybe it's just me?). 21 Apr 2009 6:40pm @willow: Nah - me, too... Tony Duque from Raleigh, United StatesYour series with this unique beauty has moved a lot of viewers to comment... at last, me. This is easily the most evocative of the five, Stephen... I feel, more than for any number of other reasons, because of how she has positioned her hands... which materially compliments what her expression says, adding to the drama of this image. It's hard to know if my perspective is related to the previous shots... perhaps so. But... talk about natural ability and having a "feel" for getting it right without direction. Thanks so much for sharing her talents and your skills with us!! 21 Apr 2009 7:50pm @Tony Duque: And thank you, Tony - for the kind words and observations. Amr Tahtawi from Cairo, EgyptBeautiful model standing on a beautiful shore 21 Apr 2009 8:14pm dj.tigersprout from New York City, USA, United Statesan intriguing gesture -- makes me think of women in the middle east... wonderful work with this beautiful model!!! :) 21 Apr 2009 10:10pm Scott Schilling from San Martin, United StatesSpectacular - I love the background on this and the look in her eyes and the pose - perfect work Stephen!! 21 Apr 2009 10:32pm Magda from Vancouver, CanadaBeautiful! Love the tones.... What a gorgeous model you had! I hope you will get a chance to photograph her one again sometime in the future. 22 Apr 2009 1:23am Godo from Barcelona, SpainLove the DOF 22 Apr 2009 3:14pm Shrig from Washington, D.C., United StatesDid she finally get a little chilly? j/k ;) The scarf is amazing against her red hair. I like the side profile of her as well. This was a great series :) 24 Apr 2009 1:32pm @Shrig: Thanks so much, Heather. It was a little chilly - not too bad - and wonderfully still. Believe me - she braved much cooler and windier conditions than this while chasing our collective images. Jesse is a 'trooper'. Expose from Tehran, IranBeautiful portrait. Well framed with the bay in the background. 5 Sep 2009 12:57pm |
