 My daughter Coraline was kind enough to be my model one hour, altough she is really preparing her June exams (but I added some books....)

Captured in my office in Brussels, natural light.

I was amazed by the potential of this little 50 mm, the cheapest Canon lens (69 USD!)

You were robbed on this shot. I still think it deserves the 9 I gave it.

Been there! Done that! Living the sequel! Great studio production (apparently) of an environmental portrait! Great Work! :)

Nice even light. I would have cropped out the left side.

She may be up to her eyes in work, but she is up to the task. She just looks smart, in addition to being beautiful. Interesting mix of subjects.

Very nice model, expression and concept. The lighting is a bit flat, but overall well lit. It would make an excellent stock photo.
