This is fantastic. The gritty, desaturated feel is perfectly done. Like a war zone, but your ironic, pursed smile gives it a different flare.

These photo's are fantastic! The red paint really makes it! And you are getting good with the depth of field and bringing focus to certain areas. That is something I always had trouble with when I studied photography in high school. I always thought photography takes a certain skill that I don't have, mainly because I myself don't do well with cameras (my final project, I actually filled an entire role of film with unfocused shots and badly lit photo's, it was embarrassing)
I also like the setting, the dark green shadows in the forest mixed with the red/orange burnt-umber of the face paint creates a nice contrast. (I am commenting on the series as a whole) In this photo particularly I can see green pigments in the skin tones, which play nicely off red face paint, and even the purple in the lips. To me it seems to use a triad of 'secondary colors' (green, purple, orange) How did you manage this sort of 'lighting' in the picture? It seems very... I can't think of the word.. raw? (I'm having trouble with the word, these pictures just have a certain look to them that is interesting to me, or at least I am not familiar with the technique)
Anyway, kudo's on a great, and successful camera shoot. You shall forever be known as Master-Chief-Guru Expert, of the Whispering Moon. (facebook reference)
My only disappointment is that the whole series is not on here for everyone to see!

Thanks so much for your comment, your words almost never fail to encourage me
The reason why I didn't put the whole series up is because my dad told me that I look quite ugly in most of them (since I'm not a perfect barbie-doll, I never ware make up and never re-touch my photos, that's why they are so "raw"...and you can see all my ugly freckles, moustache 
lOl, my mom sais that every week I jump a level with my photography, she sais she's amazed at how from two months ago when I started, I've just gotten better and better
The setting of my pictures are actually in our backyard by a wall of bamboo...I thought that would work well, and all the photos were taken this afternoon, in the shade so the lighting was all natural 
These are all conceptual pictures

You know, honestly I see a lot of these fashion photography works, and they are so retouched. They even change the shape of the body at times. Unfortunately that's what the industry wants, all their models to look like a 'barbie doll' bleh! haha. it isn't so bad really, but only sometimes it is too much 'perfect' if you know what I mean. I completely understand your desire, to 'stay natural'. Honestly, that type of thinking is rare and I admire that. Why cover up our 'gift' of imperfections. (if that makes sense) I am imperfect as well, in appearance, but it makes me unique, and well, just me!
And absolutely, I think these photo's are beautiful in their entirety, yet I understand your Dad's need to protect you. Because there are all kinds of people out there, some very harsh, uncaring and even rude. He must really care about you

I find it sad how people have been so bombarded by the media that there is a certain look that is considered beautiful which is like twig skinny, tall (which I'll never be, I'm a Shorty 
I think everyone is beautiful in their own way and its about whats inside that matters...a model could get burnt and her skin will be deformed, shell loose her hair, then what...everything she held dear to her, all that she had going for her would be gone. The world is very skin deep and they should rather focus on a persons heart and how they treat others
Thanks for the kind words

First I have a question for you. Do you ever watch the tv show the Twilight Zone? There is one episode in particular I think you will like.
My sister is really short so it's okay (she is older than me) I tease her, but she also teases me about stuff too. It is harmless in our case.. I look around and say, "where are you Jamie I can't see you!?" Then I look down and say "oh! There you are!" And we both laugh. You should be proud of being short, you see things that others are too tall to see. (there's a lot of interesting things close to the ground, that go ignored every day) And I am not teasing, I am completely serious.
Everyone is beautiful! and what you just said is beautiful. We care too much about how we look. Sometimes I wish we all looked the same (sounds weird I know) and we only had each other's personalities to go from.

I've never watched it but I've heard of it many times and I know that Alfred Hitchcock is one of the writers...I've always wanted to watch it but never gotten hold of it.
lOl, that's funny
Exactly
