Had to scroll up on the phone to see what you were talking about.

I was convinced the shot was through a chain linked fence - and triangle was a link.

> Hire Ron’s girlfriend for these shoots…eleventy billion times hotter than this girl, and also makes (visually appealing) facial expressions

Does she work for free and who is the hell Ron?  
I have a few different facial expressions in my shots if I ever get my ass in gear and finish them.

Shooting a car with a girl is extremely difficult to make it work properly. Each one fights the other for attention in the shot, very rarely do you see a good balance between the two. I’m not sure if I would even attempt it again unless it was planned out to every last detail and it would take forever to compose one shot as it is.

It’s “trying too hard” it seems.

Shots should be more or less natural or have that feel to them.

Sorry but I think the shot would have been much better without the hoods, especially from that shooting position.

just a little idea of how much editing some of my pictures get to clean them up … this particular image is made up of 9 images total … i put 3 of them together to show you the original and what i had to deal with in this shoot

Its scary for girls. Sams first one was last year and the pics didn’t come out to great cause she didn’t get to loosen up much. yet if we take pictures they come out awesome cause she is confortable also it helps alot if you pose the girls the way you want like a doll can’t I found. Noob’s cant just be like ok look hot lol. That girl definitely did a good job if that was he first time. wardrobe was good too. I cant stand when a model “trashes” up a good picture

He’s talking about my Girlfriend. She will gladly work for free you just have to loosen her up and make her feel comfortable first or else she wont smile lol. But she loves getting dressed up and crap and taking pictures
