Description Another Self Portrait

I'm still trying to get the hang of self portraiture, so please be kind to me. And again, I'm not a model. It's just easier while I'm in school to use my creativity on myself.

Homework time!!!

It feels a little awkward in the pose, hehe, like the bed was too soft. I wanted to feel a joy in the flowers or something, but I didn't. HOWEVER, you're lovely and I hope you embrace that entirely. You know how to dress your body, and that's priceless. I loved the shadows. And who doesn't ghetto rig when they need something or want a shot RIGHT THEN? That just means you're passionate, not amateur! The colors, lighting, and general composition were great! I just felt like maybe you weren't ready to be your own subject, if that makes sense. This is constructive criticism, from a place that recognizes how amazingly beautiful and talented you are, so don't take it badly! <3 <3 <3 The come home shots feel much more comfortable and like you were feeling the right emotion in your body and face for the shots you were taking.

i know exactly how you feel... im putting off posting some of my modeling stuff aswell >_>;;

i have never tried being a "self-Portrait" photographer, it just seems too dificult to get the composition right... you however did a very good job! and i love the colour contrast and everything!

I use my boyfriends Tripod but it sucks when you use it portrait it falls over, i had to prop my lens up on a chair lol

i think next time i do portrait i'll just prop it up on a desk or something instead of the tripod (yeah i'm really ammature) lol
