I think that it's beautifully shot and that the rough, faded filtering really lends itself to the whole concept. I've always been drawn to darker concepts like this and can really appreciate the beauty behind it and the perfection of the model that you used.

Amazing shots and expression.

@drjohnzo The shots are perfect... Every pose is incredible because it conveys delicacy and sensuality. The tones are incredible dark and others lighter. The lingerie used in the model is super beautiful. The black cord placed on the model's neck gives her a unique elegance. Your work is amazing, man. A big hello.

Hi and thanks a lot!

Thank you for showing us your great and beautiful work. I really liked every detail of your shots.

Que fotos tan geniales!! Me han encantado :D

Muchas gracias! :]

The pictures have a nice concept. What I see when I look at it is a sorrowful face in which she is struggling from a force within trying balance things in her life

No, these were shot on digital, but I tried to emulate the film look.

I really like these photos, the third photo from the top looks like some kind of painting. You have done an amazing job. I have seen so many times, people say that you need brightness or lights to make a photo perfect but some of the photos are just different and these are one of those.

howdy there drjohnzo! hey I love your use of lighting in these striking photos sir and the other techniques you used also, I have no idea but the end result is stunning, great post!
I take it you're a professional photographer?

Dark art, very nice use of lighting tech, and the dusting/distressing technique adds quite a bit to the feel of the shots.
I enjoyed a lot.
