Photoshoot 4: Battle

[Natalie Portman]

Couture



I really like this photo because of the way it pushes the envelope of couture. Couture is commonly a dress, but as you all know, I get bored with staying in the confines of what's expected. This is obviously custom fit for Natalie, and I think the overall photo is original to anything I've posted so far.

I also realize that B&W is another category, but a lot of high-fashion shots are in black and white, and I wouldn't want to pick a shot I like less, just because it's in color. After all, the person who picks B&W doesn't have to avoid the other four categories, so I don't see why the reverse would apply.

I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I do. I know I'm fighting for my life but I think this is the photo to do it with.

Émilie: Very high fashion. I think this photo captures the very essence of couture. It's both simplistic and dramatic. I love the pose, the face. It's all so high fashion. And the hat, those gloves. All I have to say is "Welcome back!"

[Amanda Kimmel]

Amanda:
This is bigger than the sample
For that, you set a good example
It's high fashion, couture too
Everything custom-made just for you
That hat is great, as is the expression
This is will get you out of your depression
It's the right risk to take now, and I like it
Welcome back indeed, and you'll stay a bit

Yoona: This is million miles better than your other photo this cycle. You really work it. I'm not a big fan of the outfit but overall this is a good photo. And I love your pose, Very organized
