I am pretty new to fashion photography. I decided to create a diptych of this one too, just like my Last man standing. The second photo wouldn't probably work all by itself. I shot it so that I could combine them.

I am thinking of using this as one of my ten work samples when I try to get into photography school this year.
Before you comment I just have to let you know that I kept the shelves in the background of the second just so that it doesn't look like she has moved. The retouching took 5½ hour for all three shots.

I also want your opinions on this next one.. Which version is best? B&W or color? Sorry for keeping them small.. It looks like her skin is all blurred on these small images but that's not the case on bigger versions.

This is the skin in 100% crop. Just to let you know there IS skin texture. :P


So.. Which one? B&W?


Or color?


Thanks for looking.
