Welcome to your first judging and elimination process for this cycle.
This week you need to submit a photo to represent your dream. And I must say that this is one of my favorites first week ever. I saw so many potentials. Great job, ladies.
Here are the photos
Jensen: The scenery is good. I don't like your face here but mostly, I don't like the lack of neck. Be careful of that in the future.
Emma: A little bit too big, BoA. If it were to be brought down about 125 pixels smaller, it would be perfect. Now, I like the dress, headpiece and the props, your body is fantastic, but I think it could stand to be a bit more dream-like.
Shraddha: This is very strong photo. Damn.. I really like this. The setting is magical and I love how you blended with the background. Great job, BoA!!! Keep it up.
Naya: I do get a really good fantasy vibe from the setting, and I like that even though it's a forest scene you're not being obscured by the scenery. The whole thing works really well together, but if I have one suggestion it would be to toy with the contrast settings for a photo like this, because it'd keep the white of your outfit from being lost in the background. That's really the only issue I have, otherwise this is really great!
Jensen: You look beautiful. I guess I can see dreamland, you look to be daydreaming.
Emma: Daydreaming, yes. Dreamland, not quite. I love the pink hair, and the dress, but I think it's missing the mark mostly on the theme. Show us what's inside that daydream of yours instead.
Shraddha: I 'believe' this photo. Something about this photo reminds me of a dream. You look like you were trapped somewhere here. I like the setting. Overall, this is a solid photo. Great job!!!
Naya: I agree with Emma, which is probably a sign of the oncoming apocalypse. I think this is very close to the theme, but not a perfect fit. That being said, I really like the shot itself. I love the facial expression, and the dress, the pose, it's all working together very very well. Good work, Ellie!
Jensen: Pulls out magnifying glass. This is ok. I'm a little underwhelmed because the size is making this hard for me to see well.
Emma: Definitely too small, and bad quality. Really bad quality. That's a big problem, especially in this round. It looks like a nightmare - Not you, the scenery. The scenery is really wearing you. Plus that photoshopping the marketing did is pretty bad.
Shraddha: Yup size. I prefer the size to be between 500x500 and 1000x1000. So be careful with it next time. I kinda like this photo. I think the concept is good. Maybe with different expression (scared or afraid) this photo would be better. Overall, I want to see more.
Naya: I think that with all issues aside regarding the photo itself, this is a really nice shot. It's definitely showcasing a more nightmarish aspect of dreamland, and there's totally nothing wrong with that. Really like the power in your facial expression, but the arms are a bit awkward. It's a decent try, and hopefully the sizing and quality issues won't hurt you too much.
Jensen: I didn't like the other one anyway
I like this one, the haziness of the photo and the expression. Very good.
Shraddha: I like the concept. Something about this photo reminds me of a nightmare. But the strongest part of this photo to me is your modelling potential. You look so edgy here. I love it. Great job, JLaw!!!
Emma: That face, I think, is killer. The lighting combined with the black and white gives a dreamlike atmosphere - But is it enough? Not sure about the denim vest over the lace dress.
Naya: I think it's an interesting interpretation, for sure. I wish your bottom half wasn't getting swallowed up like that, but I suppose it fits with your interpretation. The facial expression is good, and I like the pose for where you were going with this. Nice work!
Jensen: Not only is the whole photo amazing but your pose and expression really are so high fashion for me, great job.
Shraddha: Damn, you are serving everything in this photo. Strong pose, gorgeous face and great setting. What else could I ask from this photo. Well, maybe if you could give us a little bit description about your photo, but overall, this is stunning, Kat.
Emma: You are modelling from head-to-toe, and I'm impressed. Does it fit the theme - Somewhat, I think it does enough. You bringing it though.
Naya: I'll echo what everybody else has said, this is a great photo and it fits the theme wonderfully. Great work this week, Kat!
Jensen: You look gorgeous and I love your hair. But you look so void of any emotion, and that's not good.
Shraddha: Damn, I love this. This is more like a sweet and magical dream which is kind of dream that I want to have every night. You look stunning here. The setting, the face... And styling. Wow!!!
Emma: I'm glad finally got the size issue figured out. Still a tiny bit on the large side - We need it brought down about 20 pixels to bring it down to a nice 1000 pixels. This photo is gorgeous. But I agree with Jensen - You are void of emotion. Could that be an allusion to it being dreamlike and fleeting? Am I reading too much into this?
Naya: I like this. It has a nice dreamy quality to it, thanks to the lighting and the feel of your accessories. I'm not entirely sold on the facial expression, though, it comes off as a tad bland. Still, everything else works really well! Great work!
Jensen: Ohhhh I like this a lot!!!
Shraddha: Damn!!! I love this one too... Ya'll gonna give me such a hard time to rank tonight. Very high fashion and edgy. The only thing that I want to ask, please consider to give us a little bit of description. Overall, this is gorgeous!!!
Emma: Oh great. Not even a week, and one of our competitors has already drowned. While I originally thought you had water on a screen over you - But the hair - That means you are actually underwater - I'm impressed about your face looking so serene. I've seen people try to take photos underwater, and their face is usually the first to go. However, I can see the breathe in your chest - It's very tense and stiff.
Naya: The light line on your cheek originally made me think you'd run into a window. But I like the water setting a lot, and I think you pull off the dreamy, surreal feeling really well here. I wish we could see more from this shot, but overall it's fantastic. Great work!
Jensen: GURL, this photo is TINY!!! You should always do a reverse image search when you find the perfect photo because this photo looks like it could have been my #1 had it not been for the fact that I need a magnifying glass to see your face.
Shraddha: I tried to find the bigger photo for this, but I didn't find it. The concept is really good actually, but the size made it harder for us to see the details in this photo. Your head look a little bit disjointed from your body. Overall, I love the concept but not so much on the execution part.
Emma: So small! You should know better! This probably would have been my top pick too if not for size... And the face. I know this probably wasn't in a bigger size, but I might've gone for something else in this photoshoot.
Naya: I like the concept, but I think the face looks bored and withdrawn, and the pose is a tad awkward. It's shame, because everything else that's going on here is delightful. Good work this week, Nicki!
Jensen: WOW is all I can say
Shraddha: I'm definitely going to include Emma's wet dream comment. I like this.. You look like you were suffer from something bad in this photo. Maybe a little description would help us to understand more on why you chose to submit this but overall, this photo is very interesting.
Emma: What happened, Olga? Get mobbed in a dirty bukkake party? Kinky. Well, that's literally what it looks like. I guess it's someone's wet dream. Fashion forward but I feel so dirty looking at this - And I'm a sex therapist.
Naya: Wow. There's definitely something freaky and fantastic going on here. I think it's very edgy and risky, but you pull it off really well. It's definitely outlandish and bizarre, and that's how most dreams turn out. Fantastic job!
Jensen: I hate your eyebrows but this photo is spot on!!
Shraddha: Oohhh. Damn, I love this. Everything just worked perfectly together. I love how elegance you in this photo and that white horses made this photo even meaningful. I can see this as a wonderful and beautiful dream. Gorgeous, P
Emma: I think you're going to have to get used to dear Paloma's eyebrows, Jensen. Love the splash of colour with the hair. I think it's great. Be careful about that neck though, and I will comment on the eyebrows too - Be careful with how they look. They can bring your brow down to almost neanderthal-like.
Naya: I actually don't mind the eyebrows so much as the facial expression coupled with the pose, it looks like you're going "Oh, deary me, I think I'm about to fall over backwards. How boring."
Still, I like the outfit and the whole setting, it's a good selection for this theme. Nice work!
Jensen: I like this although your expression leaves me wanting to see some oomph from you. But your pose is cool and the background is great.
Shraddha: I love the concept. I can see a dream in this photo but maybe if you could give us a little bit of description , it would help us understand more about it. Love your face. Overall, this is pretty solid.
Emma: I had higher expectations from you, I'm underwhelmed. Face is dull, the pose is meh. I'm just bored.
Naya: I really like the pose and setting here, and the facial expression has a lot of power. I do agree that in the future it's helpful to explain why you chose your photo, since it gives us an idea of what connections you're making (and that goes for everybody, not just you!). Good work, Selena!
Jensen: This is almost really great. I hate your face here. There's nothing to it. No substance. You look void of anything. The background is good and chaotic and works for the theme though.
Shraddha: I love the styling. Definitely A+ plus for me. But I want a little bit more energy from you. As for the theme execution, I think you nailed it. Thank you for the description cause it really helped me to understand your photo more.
Emma: You look upset, darling. Did you not want to do this photoshoot? Because of that, you're overwhelmed by the background and blend into it. We needed a bit more passion in the face.
Naya: I agree that a stronger facial expression would've really sold this, but I think that otherwise it's a really strong submission. The theme is definitely there, and you gave us some good things to go off of in terms of the connection. Keep that energy up!
