Wax Work Will

I know this really isn't going the way the rest of the blog is going but i found this and i just had to put it on the blog, as i was checking today's news on my emails, i saw this... wax work Will, its a wax work of Prince William which will be exhibited in the Stephen Friedman Gallery in London, the wax work of Prince William is called 'Engagement', its the famous photograph of one of the many when Kate Middleton and Prince William got married, the wax work is just of Prince William and has a replica of Kate's engagement ring attached to his arm so fans can have their photo taken with the Prince and that famous engagement ring!

It would of been really nice if this had been exhibited before our photo shoot as we could of taken inspiration from different Wax Work poses as this one of Prince William is rather comical.

Final images

Ok, so after doing the powerpoint, I asked Nicolleto send me the images which had finished editing sent me a bunch which she believes to be the best out of all of them so that I can add them to the powerpoint. I've whittled them down and the ones I think are the best are below. Tell me what you think and whether you agree with these being the final images !??

Do people agree ? if not PLEASE please say because there are still more to choose from.

Edits

Nicolle has done a really good job of editing the photo's; i agree with beth, one of the edits is slightly too harsh but i really like this one. However, maybe the eyebrows are slight too over done? But that might just be blogger.

The edits so far

I really love the edits which Nicolle has been working on, and like the fact that there is a wide selection for us to choose from in terms of what style we want to aim our photoshoot at. I think the first image of Sarah in the red jumper is a bit too harsh, but I like the version which Nicolle has updated which is slightly more subtle, and doesn't actually look it has been photoshopped too much. In a way I still think the eye liner is still a bit too dark, as it gives the photoshoot and the look we were going for for Sarah quite a twisted look, which I know is sort of what we were going for, but in comparison to the image of her in her blue dress is quite regal and calm.
This is just my opinion, and it would be good to know what everyone else thinks.

Blogger seems to overexagerrate any shadow and highlight on the images, so im going to add another image that has less highlighting on the cheeks, it doesnt look this way on a higher quality image and im pretty sure its just blogger that does this!

Another edit of Sarah i did was a much more toned down version, this is one of the more formal and natural poses so i didnt edit the skin tone too much, i cleared up some areas of discolouration and stray hairs and added light and shadow, i kept the left hand side of the photo quite dark as i felt it made her eyes pop and worked well with how her hair fell.

I also darkened the hair, i think making her hair darker gives her a very sensual and pretty look.

I added pale pinks to the eyes, cheeks, nose and lips to give a flushed healthy glow.

I also cropped a version of the edited image as part of me feels the image is slightly too long and should show more of her profile as the length of the dress is distracting.
