Raquel - down the drain

[tmronin]

i've been trying to be better about hosting here...so here's a new one with raquel reed:


i know my style is a bit different than most of y'all - but i like this forum and enjoy looking at everyone's work. the level of skill shown in some of the lighting setups and post processing is humbling.

cheers!

Different is good! I like this unconventional shot and te way you weaved your watermark in unobtrusively.

Neat. Are the bubbles PS'ed in? And if not ... jeez, you're patient.

Thanks for sharing.

I really like the shock of color in the lower right corner. Creative pose, and well lit. Pretty model too.

ha!

the bubbles are real. some frames have more, some have less. i picked up a bubble maker for $24 and decided to leave it in the trunk of the car for upcoming shoots...i went running down to get it when i saw this bathroom and it worked well.

the rough part was ps'ing out all the bubble carcasses from her hair and face...as well as replacing the picture in the frame in the background, removing a box under the sink and making a bottle go away next to the sink. there is about 3 min of ps'ing on her and about 45 min of ps'ing everything else. i should have taken out the towel bar as well...

thx for the comments!
