This is no ordinary "selfie", it's a stunning self portrait of confident femininity. The skin tone treatment is so appropriately reminiscent of a geisha. The highlights in your beautiful swirling hair are lovely. The repeat colour of the lipstick in the kimono is a brilliant touch. I'm not sure about the composition but I am sure you knew exactly what you wanted. Your skilful, sensitive hands on the hot body of boudoir photography have produced a sensational result. What a delight! Congratulations.

Behind The Lens

Location

This selfie was taken in my driveway, I was on my way out the door and decided to snap a quick photo in natural lightning. I dig the way it turned out.

Time

Around noon.

Lighting

It was a very hot & sunny summer day, the lightning was very harsh - not an ideal time to shoot but I liked the way the natural lightning enhanced my eyes & pop of colors in my outfit.

Equipment

This was simply shot on an iPhone 6S (no flash). I’m amazed by the resolution of these phones.

Inspiration

I felt cute that day and decided to snap a selfie and play around with different portrait compositions. Photography is my passion.

Editing

I enhanced the contrast a bit to bring out the colors.

In my camera bag

I always carry my iphone with me, it’s perfect for quick snapshots.

Feedback

Don’t be afraid to experiment with unconventional lightning conditions & compositions.
