DNTM Photo 6 Critiques

As much as I hate snakes, this was a fun photoshoot and I enjoyed looking at every photo. The competition is heating up and there aren't any weak models left so everyone needs to step it up and deliver great photos! Biancabae: I enjoy the styling, lighting, and even the pose. I think I wish this was zoomed in or out more. It’s not close enough for a beauty shot, and not wide enough to show your whole body. I like the open mouth but the biting the tongue doesn’t scream high fashion here. If you had simply kept your tongue in your mouth and then left the mouth open the way it is I think the photograph would have been much better. Some may say you cheated with the all black outfit, but I say you used your environment to style yourself on set, and I think that is totally fair! NicoRobin: I actually really love this interpretation of the theme. Although I myself am not religious, I can appreciate a biblical reference. This looks like if Katy Perry played Eve in a movie and this is the intense moment where everything is about to change. I like that you took the photo from this angle and somehow you still look long, didn’t lose your neck, and are modeling H to T (just one foot cropped out again…..) My only other feedback is that you aren’t engaged with the snake as much, but again it is a unique interpretation of the theme to have him wrapped around your hood to the outfit. Desh: the intensity of this photograph stands out to me. Other than your striking face, one of my favorite things are your arms in this photograph. You create some good angles with them, and you look to be hanging from branch, but then you realize it’s a flimsy little prawn and that’s not possible yet you make it look possible in this photo because you kept tension in the right places. You may even be holding it above your head, but you still look like you are hanging from it, and I love that. I do wish you had zoomed in more on the beautiful face shot, or zoomed us out and given us the full length of the body. Oh, there’s a snake in this photo too…. Melanie: This was an opportunity for a beauty shot, and I thought you would thrive in that being one of the prettiest girls in the house, but I’m actually so glad you didn’t go that route! This pose is creative and I love how you are looking directly at the snake. I don’t think it’s your strongest face you have given us, but this is one of my favorite pictures of the week. Ralts023: This is one sexy photograph. It flirts with the boarder of being too sexy for a high fashion look, but I love the neck, you face looks great, and the coloring in the photograph is well done. You do have a weird thumb thing happening, and the mouth could have been opened slight less to imply a little less sex, but overall strong photo! ohEMgee: You really took the one snake only and maximized that. The outfit is creative and fun, and with that hair you really had to be careful with other colors clashing, so leaning fully into the black theme was smart. Other than that, the amount of snake is a bit too much for me. The photo is cool, but not beautiful. Fiji: I love how you played within the theme, but used lighting to impact the colors to make this photo stand out from the others. The pose and snake balance is one of the best in the group, and your face looks fabulous. The way the legs are crossed her slightly bother me for reasons I cannot articulate. Gabs: I love your face here and upper body pose. I like that you chose to make the snake go vertically in this image as it stands out from some of the other photos, but the way it is between your crossed legs looks a bit strange/unnatural. It is still a strong photo, but if the snake was draped along your body just a bit cleaner this would have been a top photo contender for sure. Jordie: similar to some of the other girls I think I would have liked this to be cropped closer, or given us full length. You look fabulous, the pose is good, and I love the snake accessories. Even with a thick snake across your upper body you managed to not lose your neck, well done. AngieKStan: This has your brand coming back through again and I do enjoy that. The sunglasses with the way the light is hitting your face doesn’t do it for me, but the way you are holding the snake is wonderful. I with the other arm was slightly more dynamic. The way it is on your hip is giving housewife a bit too much, but overall strong photo submission this week! My ranks Fiji Desh Melanie Nico Ralts AngieKStan Jordie Gabs ohEMgee Bianca
