PATRICK'S CRITIQUES:
-------------------------------
FrozenShadow09 – I like the edginess of this photo and the darker tones. I do think this may be a case of the accessories “wearing you” instead of the other way around, but I appreciate the focus and attention to detail here.
DrG2 – This photo is a strong one, and definitely stronger than your entrance, which I felt was a little “safe”. I like the subtleness of the accessories but how they’re still a strong focus. I believe you could work on some editing here, such as the necklace that is just unnecessary since you have the tie, but overall, wonderful work.
db1994 – I appreciate how you were attempting to be more subtle with your accessory choices as opposed to some of the other girls, but I fear you may have gone too far the other way. The hair is great, and the outfit fits you wonderfully, and I love how it extends passed the wrist and through the hands, but the outfit isn’t at all affected by the accessory of choice here.
scoobydoofruitsnacks – Wow at this shot. You look wonderful here and definitely have something. I hope next time that you take the theme and run with it, but overall, a great shot. I love how your dress matches the purse without being the exact same pattern, and the shoes are a great touch.
Maicolx3 – This photo gives me high hopes for you in this competition. You have your own unique style which is wonderful, I see you definitely paid attention to the theme, but you also have a great eye for detail, as that added white piece of fabric on your hat balances the rest of the look beautifully. Only small recommendation that might just be pure preference for me would be that I feel the hair didn’t need to be directly in front of the eyes for this shot, but overall, not a big issue for such a good picture.
brennelle1120 – Not a fan of this one. The outfit is okay, but the accessories look to help the outfit and are not the main focus, which I feel is not what the theme is. I see what you’re going for in this old, retro glamour look between the patterns, the pose, and the background, but I feel that overall, this isn’t successfully done.
_nyquil_ - Not really interested in this one, to be honest. I like the shoes and the purse, but this is such an awkward pose as far as modeling. This could probably be an ad to sell the shoes or purse, but you’d never see anyone model it this way outside of that because it’s just an awkward view. I hope you come back next week and remind us of why you made it here.
C_Shizz96 – While your opening photo wasn’t doing much for me, this one is EVERYTHING. I like that all of your jewelry isn’t super “matchy-matchy”, but that it still all works well! The outfit is fun, your hat is amazing, the nails and angle are giving me everything. Fantastic job this week!
MagicalBaby – I like the choice of accessories and angle here. I think the biggest issue I have is the coloration of this photo, in that it’s so one-tone (almost literally). I think this had the potential to be much more than what it ultimately was.
Girllover101 – Quite disappointed in the lack of respect you have for this competition. You didn’t care enough to submit what was asked, so I don’t care enough to even discuss what I think of this.
Presea6789 – Everything about this is right. I love every detail in the fabric choices, each accessory, even the backdrop for this! I think your unique modeling sense can take you deep into the competition, just don’t be afraid of mixing it up and taking risks to continue to surprise us!
Bella1 – I really like this and appreciate every thought that you put into this photo. I like the purse and the belt with the outfit, and the glamorous look of this outfit. You make me want to buy this purse, and I wouldn’t even have a use for it xD
Craftycam10 – While I can appreciate you attempted a much more casual look than the other girls, I’m not so sure that it was successful here.
