Daisy Lovely trained as a make-up artist at one of the most famous schools in Hollywood.
Her hobby is to create collections of images of females that constitute outstanding examples of make-up and photographic artistry.
Like the posing of the body (Vol. 8), of the hands (Vol. 12) of the hair (Vol. 13) and of the model’s facial expression (Vol. 14), the manner in which the photographer and his makeup artist treat the eyes can make or break a portrait. The following is Daisy’s comment for the image on the cover of this book.
As we saw in Vol. 9, many portrait photographers are wont to include the extraordinary beauty of flowers in their portraits of women.
As we shall see in this Vol. 15, there are also many photographers who love to photograph specifically women’s eyes. The eyes are always the most important focus of portraits, but in some women the colors and patterns of their irises are so exceptional that the photographer and his makeup artist may choose to give them special emphasis.
For the image on the cover of this book, note the manner in which the color of the eyebrow coordinates with the color of the portion of the iris that borders the pupil. In addition, the colors of the eye shadow are complementary to the color of the outer portion of the iris. This woman’s eye is so exceptional that it is virtually begging for this special treatment.
While it is the makeup artist who does the coloring, it is the photographer who must capture the artist’s work effectively. The first photograph following the cover is of the same eye — but note how less effective it is as capturing the details of the makeup artist’s work. The change of camera angle, the location of the catch lights and the increased closure of the eyelids all work to make the second image somewhat less compelling and captivating — yes, less fabulous.
As in previous volumes, the organization of this Vol. 15 is simple: Each page consists of one high-definition image plus a link to the portfolio of the photographer who created it.
Daisy’s hope is that readers will enjoy viewing this collection of images of women as much as she has enjoyed creating it and then periodically viewing it on her HDTV after downloading the appropriate Kindle app for her computer.
