It's certainly not a bad compromise. The overall effect is nice.
Of course if you look at contemporary fashion photography, anything
goes. The end result is all that counts. Even Richard Avedon, who
might be considered the father of modern fashion photography, engaged
in some distinctly over the top looks, including ultra high contrast
and blown highlights.
He & other well know 'artists' can get away with stuff like that because
of their name.
True to a certain extent. But extremism is not always ineffective.
No argument.
My point was that a lesser known individual, regardless of the 'extremism',
is less likely to have his 'extreme' work accepted.
How closely photography approximates real life tonal values shouldn't
always be the basis on which the work is judged. Impact counts.
