These photos are beautiful, don’t let the idiots get you down, their “opinions” are better directed at themselves and the improvement of their (probably terrible) work.

Luv the shot at the piano – nicely done…especially for a passport photographer.

“If it gets in to a top magazine then its got to be outstanding”
ROFL! You’re kidding right?
And by the way, scott watters is a HORRIBLe photographer; trust me, comparing your photo here to his passport shots was NOT a compliment.
FYI, this guy posted these for critique on a photography forum and they got BLASTED – as they should have. These images have NO business being on ANY magazine, PERIOD. SOrry to sound rude, but your reply to me kinda ticked me off – these are horrible. The lighting is flat, the backgrounds are WAY too busy and the whole thing is just, well, terrible. Take the criticism and USE It to improve.

Coucou Ben, j’adore la photo avec les roses en premier plan et le décor exotique derrière, je la trouve particulièrement réussie. Bravo pour ton travail, suerte y mucho éxito. Maud C.

Brilliant Work – I can only say that i admire your work and thanks for sharing it. If it gets in to a top magazine then its got to be outstanding- not just technically excellent but artistically excellent as well. This is both

It just amazes me that your photographs can be so busy, but yet feature the model.

Thanks for the compliment! That was exactly my intention. However I don’t have the privilege of knowing Scott (Whatever) Watters work. Perhaps you could share some samples of his work with me. Being controversial is often the key to successful imagery. Look at Terry Richardson’s work done with his $75 Canon camera’s. As raw and controversial as it can get. By the way, an excellent photographer.

I’m very suprised that first shot made it into any magazine; sorry, it’s just horrible. The posing is passport-ish, kinda reminds me of a Scott Watters shots, lol.
But, on the other hand, I’m often shocked at some of the images that wind up in magazines.
Back to the drawing board my friend…
