yeah exactlt right on both points

if you looking at taking full length shots outdoors, then yes you can take from down low, but certainly not headshots

Nice shots bro, I think I like the last one because it's technically executed the best.

First girl should have a straight face with chin pointed down more. She simply doesn't have the bone structure for that pose.

Don't be afraid to use the liquify tool on necks and jaws (really needs it)+ burn in some shadows under the chin and jaw line, it will give the girls faces a lot more structure.

Your first shoot mate? Good job

thanks for that, was hoping for c&c from you
i am CRAP at editing, liquify is PS right? i solely used LR4 for these, as it is more simple, still so much to learn on there let alone PS
will look up some luquify tutorials

well was my 1st shoot of this type, have shot some models before but that was just for fun, normally just shoot corporate events

Good job for your first mate

Liquify is incredibly simple to use.

I'll show ya an example. Give me a few mins.

cool, thx

do you mind that i edited one for an example? i can post here or pm?

yeah np at all
post here is cool, so we all can learn

So basically the red circles and arrows is where I pushed forward or back

Plus darkened under the jaw and a little on the cheeks.

This makes her look much more "petite" or feminine.

I would probably also slim her face a little so it's not so circular.

It may look like too much when comparing side by side but if you never saw the original it would look completely fine

cool thx
i had the thought that her face couldve been slimmed a little but nowhere near good enough at that, or even know how to begin
i will learn slowly

The light was pretty soft so it's going to show everything and exaggerate everything.

If it were a bit harsher, there would be more shadow play so it would slim her face naturally and also create contours.
