Hello Models!!!
Welcome to your second judging & elimination. This week you need to pick a prop/props and use it in your photo. Let's see the photos for this week.
BoA ~ Camera
Emma: Props is a deceptively hard photoshoot to nail. There are so many things you need to determine in order to make a good picture - For me, it's how well you're selling the prop. You look fabulous, and I'm sure Jensen's neck fetish is sufficiently quenched. The prop on the other hand - It's being used more of a background decoration than a prop. You're only selling it by looking fabulous yourself.
Shraddha: You look gorgeous here. I really love the styling. I want to see more connection between you and the prop. But overall, I think this is great. Better than last week.
Jensen: I dont' have a neck fetish hahahah But I do love the neck here. I wish your face had a bit more emotion to it though, it looks lifeless to me. I agree with Emma that your prop just looks like background decoration. It's definitely not in your face which is a shame.
Jared: BoA, when I initially looked at this photo I thought it was brilliant. Coming back to it, I still think it's brilliant. You look fantastic, you have the pose going on that says you command the room when you take a photo. I love your business flashy outfit and I don't at all mind your expression. The interaction with your prop is certainly the minimalist it could be, but I can still see the interaction and I think you did a terrific job here.
Ellie ~ Ladder
Emma: You've got a lot going for you in this picture - And a lot working against you. Everything works in this picture... That is... Except for the face. And a bad face is enough to ruin an otherwise wonderful picture. When I look at a props photoshoot, I look at how well the object is being sold. Because the silver ladder blends in against the grey background, it's really just lost.
Shraddha: Agree with Emma. The angle of your face is the biggest problem in this photo. However, I like your pose. I think it's strong and compliment your body. I see improvement from last week. So keep it up, El
Jensen: The face is awful, but the rest is great.
Jared: Ellie, I am over the moon happy that you went with this photo. Stylistically and fashionwise, you are absolutely on point. Your interaction with the ladder is as it should be, and you absolutely have the model form here. I think I understand what the other judges are saying about your face, mostly I'm focusing on those "duck faced" lips. Yikes. Otherwise than that I love it.
Emily ~ Water Pistols
Emma: Emily, dear... Take a look at the other pictures this round... Then take a look at this. Do you see the difference? The majority of theirs are showstoppers. Yours is plain.
Shraddha: It's not a bad photo. Actually much better than last week. You look fierce but Emma is right. It felt so empty and plain compared to the other models. But I like your pose.
Jensen: I don't agree that the majority are show stoppers because I found this round to be quite boring. I don't think you're the worst at all. Or the second worst. Kind of shocked to see you get so many votes in the other thread lol
Jared: Emily, there is so much bright going on in this photo that you are practically white-washed right out of it. Your pose is sexy and familiar. Your interaction with your prop is great, but aesthetically all of these aspects are refusing to work together... and you're leering at me. In most cases, I love a good leer, but here it's not doing anything for me. I am a huge fan, but not of this photo.
Jennifer ~ Hunters Bow
Emma: This image wasn't just blurry because you were fatigued, it's probably the blurriest image I've seen in a while with this competition. Modelling is basic - It's the modelling 101 hand on hip pose. And the prop merely blends in. Meh.
Shraddha: After last week, I expected more from you. Quality is the biggest issue here. I like the fact that you look so tall here. But overall, I think you can do better than this, girl..
Jensen: Your modeling is just fine and your prop is a lot better than others. The quality is horrible though. Not the worst ever, but definitely horrible.
Jared: Let me start with positives; that pose, Jennifer, has all the sass in the world and I love it. Your outfit is basic black, but fantastic. It kills me that you went with something as easy as a bow for a prop. You're Katniss Everdeen, I expect this from you, it's boring. As it's been said, the worst part of this is the blurry quality. Sorry, JLaw, better luck next time.
Kat ~ Camera
Emma: Are you selling the prop, or is the prop selling you? I'll be frank, I don't like this. The sepia tone, for starters, isn't doing you any favours. That one eye looks dead, and the other, well obviously you've had an unfortunately run in with Dr Eggman. This picture is really lacking the oomph that could sell the camera to me.
Shraddha: I disagree with Emma. I think this is very good. Actually my favorite between all 3 models who chose camera this week. I think the sepia tone helped the concept of your photo. You look beautiful. Just be careful with the mouth. And I think the angle should be better too. I felt like this photo was too on the left side. But overall, I really like this
Jensen: I like this a lot. Yes be careful with your mouth, but other than that, this is great. You really know how to model.
Jared: Kat, I love how interactive you are with your prop and I'm a big fan of black and white photos... if they have an artistic, bold aspect about them. I'm kind of underwhelmed. I think it has a lot to do with how well you did last shoot. I'm not in love with your hair or the sort of formal, sort of lingerie look going on, it's really not working. I'm also mildly annoyed that the top of your head is cut off, but you can't do much about that. I'll say the photo is good, but it's not great. Good luck!
Laura ~ Camera
Emma: Black and white perhaps isn't the best choice for a props photoshoot. The colour would really help sell the item. Your outfit is good, bone structure is amazing. But eyes are dead, and the picture is overall boring.
Shraddha: Again, I disagree with you, Em. Something about this photo just caught my attention. I love how gorgeous you were. The cheek bones look so yummy and I don't think your eyes were dead here. However, as for the color, I've to agree with Emma. I want to see this in color because that beautiful dress just look plain without its' color.
Jensen: I don't like your expression At all. You do have amazing bone structure though.
Jared: I swear you and Kat collaborated on this or something. A black and white photo, a camera... a kind of weird expression. At least your outfit is one style and your hair is fine. The interaction is there with your prop. It's fine, but it's not wowing me.
Margot ~ Sunbed
Emma: Gorgeous, Margot. This picture is wonderful, except for a few things - The colour of your bathing suit - It makes you blend in to the sun bed rather than pop out. I'm also not a fan of your leg doing the disappearing-reappearing act. Lastly, the picture would be so much better if we zoomed out and saw the whole sun bed, rather than a fraction - Then we would be able to see it in all of its glory.
Shraddha: This is stunning. Especially the face. I love it. Another strong week from you. Yeah, not really a fan of the pattern of the swimsuit because it blends with the sunbed but overall, I love this.
Jensen: Best of the round babes.
Jared: Alright, Margot, you have definitely got the interaction down with the sunbed, I mean, you are laying on it and there isn't much else you could be doing with it. Emma is right though, all those stripes and the first thing my eyes go too is the red-striped pillow, you second and the sunbed third. Your pose and expression are great, but something about this feels safe.
Nicki ~ Motorcycle
Emma: Nicki, what on Earth is going on with your legs? Did you get in a horrible biking accident? I'm not a fan of your outfit, but overall, I think it looks good. It would be much better if we saw the whole motor cycle, rather than a section.
But GREEN?
Shraddha: Million miles better than last week. I love how comfortable you were on that motorcycle. I think it's very creative. The color choice was odd and interesting. But I rather to see odd & interesting rather than something plain and safe. Great job, Nicki
Jensen: I love your pose and I love the quality of this photo.
Jared: There are things I love about this photo and things I hate. What I love is your pose, it's different and it's kind of fantastic. The quality of the photo is brilliant. I even love your hair even though it confuses me. What I don't like is the amount of green. Especially in your hair. It's unflattering. I also wish your prop were fully in the photo and not off to the side. Otherwise than that, this is great.
Olga ~ Bunker Ladder
Emma: There's something a bit off in this - It's not the size - It's the quality. It might have something to do with the lighting. Face is owning, your curves banging, but I'm missing your other leg here... And let's not talk about your arms. As far as your prop, I'm not tempted to buy this ladder any time soon if that's what it will do to my body.
Shraddha: I think you look a little bit uncomfortable here. The angle was a little bit off. So it made your body looks weird. But, your face is beautiful so it will help you this week.
Jensen: I love the curves! Fantastic. Prop is interesting. Lighting sucks.
Jared: I love the simple black dress and heels. I enjoy your interaction with your prop, but since I've seen Ellie and her ladder, I'm not as wowed as I'd like to be. I agree with Emma, the lighting could do with a little fix, but I think you are rocking this the best you can.
Paloma ~ Televisions
Emma: I've got my glasses on, so I was hoping this picture would be a bit better quality. I was mistaken. I like everything about this - But your face. The face kills it for me. It will be something you need to be weary of. As far the props, I like the concept, but execution could have been better - Perhaps the lighting would have helped.
Shraddha: Except for that annoying light at the middle of this photo, I think this is gorgeous. I love the concept and your styling is very interesting and it worked for you. Great job, Paloma!!!
Jensen: UGH the light burst in the middle of the photo is killing me!!!! But I really like this a lot!!
Jared: I didn't even notice the light burst. What I did notice is how fricken AMAZING this photo is. You and your prop are literally everywhere! I am so impressed! Your pose, your style, your expression, everything is working. I can not even find one thing I do not like about this photo, other than the light burst that I'm now noticing. Great... I don't even think the quality is that bad. Great work as far as I'm concerned.
Selena ~ Umbrella
Emma: Everyone knows I'm a sucker for pin up style photography. Love your legs. Love your outfit. Love your shoes. I think the umbrella is sold nicely here too.
PS.
Shraddha: The first thing, I noticed from this photo is your face. You look so tired and I agree with Emma that it's the makeup. But other than that, this is really good. I love it.
Jensen: I disagree, you don't look tired at all. Make up not the greatest but I can say that there are some mighty jealous bitter girls playing the game because I can't believe you were voted as one of the worst by like three people This is gorgeous!!!
Jared: Selena, I've seen this photo before, and it never gets old, it gets classic. And I love a good classic. It's hard to go wrong interacting with an umbrella, and you have a great pose and style to go with it. A step up from last week, good work!
Shailene ~ Motorcycle
Emma: Shailene, is there something going on in your photoshoots - Last time you were terrified, this time you're disgusted. Your prop - It's far too hidden. I had to really stare. It literally looks like just you there. Now Shailene. You've got your body down, but please, please. Your face. Work on it.
Shraddha: Yeah again.. You need to be careful with the expression. I think your body language was on point. I love the styling and the concept of this photo is good. So work on the expression please.
Jensen: I hate the hair but wtf is your prop and where is it???
Emma: You see the little shiny bit in the corner, Jensen? It's a black motorcycle. A very black motorcycle. Against a very black background.
Jared: I kind of love that you are using a resting bitch face to sell a motorcycle. I actually do love this a lot. Kinda wild about the outfit. Your hair is styled rocker chick style, this works. There is even enough of the motorcycle to get by here. Good job, Shai!
