Ok. Now I am really bamfazzled. I was contacted today by a Maxim Model who wants me to take her photos. Hell if i know why because the stuff she has already is stunning. (dawnramos.com)
Maybe because I am a woman.
So what is it about my commercial/fashion shots that you like? I'm trying to see what she is seeing.
(I've asked that too, just haven't heard back in the last 15 min.)
This is a once in a lifetime chance for me, but I'm not sure what magic she sees in my work. Why would a girl like this come to me??????

Hehe... yeah, that was an impressive, yet annoying, demonstration of the capabilities of Flash.

Congratulations on getting out there and getting noticed. :)

Did she mention what style of shots she's looking for? That may give you an indication of what attracted her to you and your style. Regardless, I'd say don't question your abilities, she chose you and that says volumes. Of course, I imagine most of us here are guilty of being our own worst critics. :)

Well, take a look at your number 3 and 4 shots on your above banner and that's why. They are terrific! I haven't viewed the model's site yet, but I'm sure you'll do fine. It looks to me that you have a way with people and that's obviously what she is seeing.

Everyone has their own style, and I think she must see something in your style that she likes.

It could be the way you capture expressions or just the way you capture a pose. But the main thing is she likes what she see.

Congratulations and I know you will do good. Just don't change what you are doing......
