Description
So there is a bit of story behind this...I took this picture a long time ago, on the same day I took all of the other picture of Beca. She designed and made this costume for her belly dancing troupe, and it was one of the many costumes we took pictures of that night. The problem was that this one hadn't been premiered in a show, so I couldn't upload it.
Well as you can see, it's premiered, and I've finally gotten around to editing it and fixing the background as best I could. The lighting was poor, and all we used in the background was a spair bed sheet.

Looks awesome. You need some full-body pics of her in this. I've seen some of her facial pics in your gallery and she's lovely.

The best way for you to ask her if she's willing to do any orders for dresses is to contact her.
You can find her contact information on her tribe.net profile page here - [link]

You did a great job making the bed sheet work! Lovely photography there, even though you say the lighting was bad, it looks gorgeous. The darker feel of the costume lends itself beautifully with the tones in the photo... and speaking of the costume...!!! It has me speechless. This is definitely a

Thank you very much. I've taken a peek through your work and it's really wonderful stuff. You say you need a photographer in some cases, it's too bad I'm not closer to Vegas than San Francisco or I'd offer myself up.
As far as Beca's wonderful costume, she's actually selling a lot of her stuff now, so if it's at all the sort of thing you're looking for let me know.

wow, like the other piece your use of colours is inviting and cools great.
I like the contrast between the bare flesh, smooth and natural, and the lace of the cloths contrasts in both colour and texture.
I like how you've got the model standing, relaxed and inviting.
i really like this piece

As far as the poses go, it was all her. Being a born performer, she's very natural when it comes to how to stand in front of the camera. I simply made the adjustments to the camera, and clicked away as she had fun going through different belly dancing poses. It was a real joy.

She's a very talented designer. She's actually got a dance clothing line that's out in stores right now, but it's not as fancy as the costumes like that one.

I'm glad you like it. You always leave a lot of comments and they're great to read.
I dunno about the picture though. I do love it, but I wish the iso had been lower when I took it. It was however, a newish camera at that point and I didn't even notice what the iso was set to. Oh well.

Ahhh so glad you value my comments, I never knew they were so appreciated!!
And about the iso, that sucks, but there's not too much grain or anything and its not too dark so... I think it still works out well! ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, luckily the grain wasn't too intense in this picture. On a few of them it got a bit out of control and I had to use a pogram to try and fix that a touch.
Hopefully I'll have more pictures for you to comment on soon.

Well, it might be a bed sheet, but it works out great. Makes a good photographer to get beautiful shots with using all he can get his hands on. 
Poor lighting, but it's sexy lighting. It's not just a half naked girl, it's a real photo 
I love those glove thingies she has btw..
The color of the bed sheet looks great with the color of her outfit.. Nicely done, good job

Well the bed sheets color was messed with in post. It was really a white or off-white sheet so it didn't really work out that well.
Thank you for all of the comments, I'm rather happy with how it turned out considering how much of a newbie I was when I took the picture.
