 This is Mercedes from Vancouver. She is a pretty famous international model working for many agencies all accross the world. Currently based in London, she was kind enough to come all the way down to Paris especially for shooting with me. We have worked during a whole week end for nearly 16 hours.
Make up and hair by Sebastien.

You and me Lesley(Goodman). The lighting and expression is perfect. Perhaps the bottom part pose is a little too static but maybe if there was a crisp white executive style shirt instead of the blouse here , it would add to the mood better?

Very nice lighting amd makeup. I really like the skin tones here. The black lipstick , white blouse and black background make a cool contrast sandwich.

Interesting portrait, black lips are striking juxtaposition to her seemingly traditional dress

This one scares the hell out of me. But it's a great picture. Eeek. Freaky.

With that type of lipstick, she should be in tight, black, leathers! BB

Remarks: I'd probably titled it 'Orice. Yours is so much better. -Very appetizing, near formal sensuality.

Very interesting. I think I would prefer this one in BW, but I do like it as is.

Interesting. Might be more dramatic with different, simpler, darker clothing. I also think that the straight-on angle robs it of some effect. The model is beautiful.
