Number 3 is the strongest image. I like it because it seems to say that she can now take on anything. The background unclear, but she is sharp and focuses. I like this one the best. What is your favorite?

Really strong images. I love the contrast/lighting. And the saturation is so rich. Really amazing post-processing work. And the image composition is compelling.

Randy .. stunning photos of a very beautiful woman.

There’s this duality – in a sense you had it easy, working with Amber .. but there was also the challenge of matching up to the possibilities that photographing someone like Amber would offer.

You did great. And I love your writing.
That ease of writing and fluency is something I’d love to incorporate in my own writing. I’m envious.

Neil.

Randy, great images!

And the way you write is really inspiring, too–deep and positive stuff.

I think #7 and #8 capture and convey the story you most want to tell.

As Amber stepping out of her past (the darker reflection in water and all the ruin) and looking into the (brighter) future.

Good work!

I agree with Sarah, WOW! These are absolutely amazing. I love your use of the extreme wide angle lens. These shots make good justification for me to buy one for myself.

Hey Randy I went to your website to get your number to give you a call and thought I would stop by your blog to see what you have been up to and wanted to let you know the shots of your client in the run down scene are very cool, nice work. If you don’t mind me asking where is the scene at?

Take care and keep up the cool work.

Wow Randy…just wow.

I skipped reading the title of your post in my hurry to get to the images and found myself thinking as I was looking “I love how he brought life to these ruins”. Very apt description…
