Thanks for the comments, Tim. I did shoot some that were much tighter
and might be better for the ad. But I liked these more as photos.

much. There is something with the body language. It is somewhere
between
relaxed (this would have made an ironic look), and tense (a bit more
dramatic). Being either relaxed or tense makes the shoot fall between
two
chairs, IMO.
Another thing is that the jewellery isn't very visible. So I'm not sure
about the commercial effect.
I do like the reflections in the glasses, that's cool.
BTW. I find myself being in much more critical than usual today.
Wonder why?

Subject: PESO: A nervous shoot
I shot another pic for a jewelry ad today. It's a low-budget
operation,
so I did it without permits or permissions. When you see the subject,
you'll know why it made both me and the model a bit nervous. Her
fiance
held up a big sign that said PHOTO SHOOT, and we worked very fast. But
I did manage to get off about a dozen shots, and I'm happy with the
results. The first one is probably quite a bit better for the ad. The
second one might be more fun. All with the *istD and the FA50/1.4, ISO
400, f5.6@ !/90th.
