Portraits:
These portrait photos are inspired by Richard Avedon's work, as he is a portrait photographer. I followed his way of taking photos through saying prompts to the model that would invoke some emotion in their facial expression. From watching Avedon's documentary, I learned that he only actually took the photos of his subjects after the models put down their "mask" and would start to show their emotions to Avedon and his camera. I tried to do this same thing, but I didn't have enough time to accommodate for not taking the first few "masked" photos. I took pictures of Daro and Stewart.

I like your work with extremities with Daro, my only suggestion is to use more than one model and have them convey an emotion that is more like their personality.
