The black leather works here - almost wish she had black shoes on, however - regardless of how she is dressed - you captured a fleeting moment very well: great textures in the alley plays up against the smooth curves and solids on Jessie.

This is amazing Stephen with all of the tones of blue in this - wonderful work - I love the blue hues throughout from the clothing to the door to the building walls - awesome!

I cant make my mind up about this one, I do like it, it is an unusual pose which somehow adds to the image, a very clear image, I agree the blue works for the shot

What comes to mind in this one is "whimsical." Jesse is often an intense presence in other shots you've offered - lovely, attractive, but intense. It is nice to see this more relaxed, fun side of her in this moment of whimsy. Yet as always, she remains eye-catchingly beautiful.

@Viewfinder: There are so many facets to what she can emote during a shoot - and then there's her outstanding physical abilities - and then - there's her own radiant beauty (and she's pretty good lookin' too)
Cricket-Tammy from Alabama, United States
I like the playful side of this one. I haven't been around in a while...life drama...but I have taken the time to scroll back through your images. Very nice as always!

@Cricket-Tammy: Tammy! Great to see/hear from you. I hope the dramas have subsided and that all is well and getting better for you. Thanks for the extended visit.

Not only is the modle lovely, and it's very hard not to focus on her, but the image itself is superb. Well done, Stephen.

Wow - the colours work beautifully here, but she stands out nonetheless! Great pose.

Lovely image....the textures and overall ambiance really give it a nice feel....only thing I'd want to change is the way Jesse's eyes look almost all white, kind of Linda Blairish......just wish she had been not looking so high up, and her expression was a bit different.....

I love the posture she has given to the shot while so quite oblivious to it. Excellent mood capturing.

Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain
As beautiful as always, and enjoying the session. Very funny expression and good moment catched. I like her gesture and how she uses this beautiful door to "dance".
Congratulations.
