Hi Arturo!

I've come to your gallery through a comment you made in someone's photo... You know? It's good to get "honest" feedback for a change... Usually people are too "polite" and one doesn't learn a lot that way...

Anyway, just wanted to say hi and hope that you'll post more photos soon!

Take care,
Asun.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment.. you were far from harsh.. The photo with the roses was the first photo session I had ever done, the cropping never occurred to me at the time.. the lighting has improved I think over time.. I do not have "real" lights I was using a single work light to begin with and now I have added a second as a fill light. I have only been shooting for about 3 months and i am learning it all as I go. So any professional opinions I can get the happier I am. I love to use makeup in my shots as you can see... I find it adds so much.. Again thank you so much for your comment it truly meant a lot to me.. your work is awesome, any advice from you is appreciated. Alisa

Well, Alisa. If this is the result of 3 month of learning let me tell you that you have a great future in both make up and photography.
I have read your quote and if you never ever forget to follow it I guaranty you a great success.
I start a little bit late in live to persuade photography as a way of living but if you want to learn more, of course, the internet is a great way to find ideas but I suggest you to get involve with professional organizations and national and international conventions.
I had learned a lot and it encourage me on ideas and to feel confident to increase my prices.
Keep in your good work and feel free to keep in touch and don't forget to share ideas with me.
Take care.

Well the photography has been for a bit less than 3 months and the makeup has been a few years now.. I never thought that photography was something I wanted to do.. that is until I tried it. I always loved what photographers were able to do but never really thought that it was something I would be passionate about. After that first shoot I was obsessed LOL.. I love it.. I have been trying to decided if my work was good enough that it could be something that I should proceed with and invest time and money into learning more. I just finished another shoot yesterday that I am excited about it was an "different" concept with some elaborate makeup, I am currently editing them and will post some probably today.. I would love to get an opinion from you on them if you wouldn't mind. I am choosing an edit that is a bit intense but it's purpose it to help bring out the emotion in the shot...

P.S. I looked at your website.. your work really is great!
