Make Me Tall

Another lovely shoot but this time it's only because of three photos.  The rest I really could care less about.

1.-NICOLE
Have I ever said how amazing Foxy is? Because if I haven't let me say now; for a shorty, Foxy is amazing, fantastic, sensational, etc.  This is an amazing photo.  She looks about 6'0" tall and I love how she looks like some princess who is randomly playing in some construction zone.  I think the face is marvelous and overall Foxy rules.

2.-ERIN
This photo is lovely.  I think that the simple pose and the blank expression actually works here.  Erin's legs look soooo long and I adore those electric blue pump heels!

3.-KARA
The pose is great.  It makes Kara look taller and her body looks great.  The face however is weak.  I mean she looks pretty there but she looks slightly unsure here and I don't like the slight snarl.  It's still a great shot though.

4.-JENNIFER
Major improvement from last week but this photo has a lot of flaws.  First of all, she looks about her height or maybe a little shorter rather than looking taller which was the whole point of the shoot.  The dress however does look great and her eyes don't look wonky but she looks slightly stupid in the close up which obviously doesn't work.

5.-RAE
Rae looks really hot here...but it looks slightly cheap here.  She does look long and she looks beautiful here but it's just the cheapness that doesn't work.

6.-ASHLEY
Okay so I'm going to give big props for Ashley looking a little bit taller which is why I ranked her so high.  I think she looks pretty here but it looks like singer in an editorial rather than a model.  Also her eyes are a bit wonky and she isn't showing the dress well at all.

7.-LULU
Overall, I think this is a pretty photo but she's hiding part of her leg which doesn't work since it's all about height, and legs and heels are what makes you look taller.  She looks about 5'7" though her face looks good here.

8.-BRITTANY
This is okay borderline bad.  The pose is really stiff and just looks forced and she looks shorter than she is (which if I remember correctly she was 5'4" so...).  The only thing that saves this shot is that she looks pretty here.

9.-LAURA
"Hey mommy look! I found my transportation to school!" Sorry I just did this game where we had to choose the cheapest transportation possible lol.  This is like Brittany, Lulu, and Ashley's pretty but she looks short (she's 5'6" if I'm right).  The arms looks awkward and I wish Laura kept her legs straight together rather than apart.

10.-SUNDAI
Congratulations Sundai! You look a whole inch taller (obviously that's not good but I guess I would take an inch over nothing)! Also it kind of bothers me how the clothes look on Sundai since rather than it looking like a dress made by a designer or whatever, it looks like something for prom.)

11.-BIANCA
So for whoever the stylist was (was it Christian/Sutan or did they cut them out already? I think they already did.  Poop.) has amazing taste since I think the dress is awesome.  However, like Courtney's Baby photo, I don't like the muscular arms here as well as the pose which isn't making her taller but just the same size.  Also, I understand that Bianca has a masculine face but I don't like how she kind of looks drag here.   I think that the soft expression would work if it was a bit softer and if she had eyebrows.

And call outs from the show!

Wow what a terrible pun D: Anyways, I loved this shoot because there were like half a dozen amazing shots.  The rest I could care less for but the half a dozen were seriously amazing.

1.-BRITTANY

So after a mediocre photo last week Brittany gives us this amazing photo where she looks about 6' tall with an amazing body.  The face looks great as well and I love the headband.  I never really thought I'd rank this first but looking at it again, it's really a fantastic shot.

2.-ERIN
Totally awesome.  First of all, I love how Erin's hair matches the horses' mane.  Her pose is really twisted but in a way where it works and the face...let's just say I wouldn't want to mess with her.  It's overall a lovely photo and another hit from Erin!

3.-LAURA
So I'm going to be honest.  Looking at Laura's portfolio again I didn't think she really did that great with the exception of one or two photos.  This however is amazing and for sure Laura's best photo. I adore the laid back pose and I think that she looks gorgeous in the close up and she's definitely smiling with her eyes.

4.-NICOLE
This is a stunning photo of Nicole and I think that the pose looks fabulous here.  I love how she didn't go for the typical smize but a more melancholic look.  It's an awesome photo of Ms. Foxy,

5,-LULU
Probably Lulu's best photo for sure.  I adore her face here...it looks like a real model rather than a girl on reality television.  The pose is very simple but at the same time works to make this shot great.

6.-RAE
Madonna Madonna Madonna! Such a gorgeous photo.  The pose makes her look longer and I think her face looks great though her eyes look slightly manic.  Still it's a great photo.

7.-KARA
This photo is okay.  I think that Kara looks really great here but her eyes are blank and the whole point of the shoot is to smize so she failed there.  It's a good photo minus the face.

8.-ASHLEY
Boooooooooooooring.  The face looks dead here and the pose does nothing to make this shot better.  Ashley looks pretty though.

9.-COURTNEY
This photo just looks cheap.  It doesn't look like a photo of a model at all.  She looks slightly short here and overall this is not a good photo of Courtney.  Would I have eliminated her here? Probably not but it's not a huge loss.

10.-BIANCA
This is pretty bad.  Bianca looks slightly drag though I blame part of it for the wig and she just doesn't look pretty and her eyes don't look that great.

11.-JENNIFER
Wonky, wonky, wonky.  I understand that she has something wrong in her eyes but she could have worked beyond it (like she did in the next shoot).  Also she looks cheap here.

12.-SUNDAI
Yuck.  This looks like a child prostitute rather than an eighteen year old.  It looks like an eight year old though at least she looks pretty but she looks way too young here...

And the shows call outs!

Gaga For Fashion

Okay first of all, if you haven't realized, I posted the first shoot of Germany's C5 but never continued.  That's because I really want to try to do some more ANTM shoots first (and it's soooooooo long XP) but rest assured I will be going back to GNTM sooner or later! This shoot was decent.  There were a few great photos, a lot of bland ones, and a few not-so-great photos.

1.-RAE
Okay, I first want to say how amazingly perfect that close up is.  That ice blonde hair, those eyes, the ethereal quality Rae has...all perfect.  The pose is very relaxed which helps make this shot better but I think she looks like a shorty with heels on.  But everything else in this shot is perfect.

2.-NICOLE
Work it out Bloody Eyeball! And this is how you look 5'10"! That pose is so cool and gives that 80's feel and Foxy's definitely working those Mick Jagger pants.  Only negative is that the face could be a bit stronger but she looks gorgeous so I'm not going to completely fault her for that.

3.-ERIN
Most youthful shot of the cycle? Of course! I love Erin's face here and how it looks like an elegant five year old's face.  She works the outfit well but I do slightly wish that she was a bit more broken down in the pose.

4.-COURTNEY
Courtney's best shot by miles.  That close up is just amazing; like a mix of Fo but even better.  The pose is lovely as well but I don't like the muscular arms or the mirror photo.  But the regular photo is lovely.

5.-JENNIFER
I have to give points for Jennifer for rather than standing on the sand and posing, she actually interacted with her environment.  I love how the dress mixes in with the sand but I don't like how raised her chin is and I feel as though her face looks slightly strained.

6.-LULU

I think it's an adorable photo of Lulu.  I love the styling and I love the innocence in her face but I just hate how she's standing there.  I wish there was a bit more to the pose.  Still, it's a great photo.

7.-ASHLEY
I think that overall this photo is very good but it has a lot of flaws.  First of all, I hate how her left leg is on top of her right and how she's crunching it in the shot since she looks as short as she is rather than taller and I think her eyes are wonky.  I love the pose though and I think this would have been better if she made it a bit more sexy or diva-like or both.  I still like what she was going for.

8.-KARA
So this is a gorgeous shot and I think that Kara's profile looks amazing here but that's it.  There's nothing truly interesting about this shot and I blame it slightly on Kara and slightly on the editors for giving her such a horrible set (then again, everyone minus Erin, Rae, and Jennifer had a horrible set) but yeah Kara looks beautiful but she's truly not working it.

9.-LAURA
Worst set of them all? I think so.  Seriously I think it's kind of insane that all she got was a baby doll to work with.  I think it's a beautiful shot but I hate the open mouth and the ways her eyes look here.  I love the hair though.

10.-BRITTANY
Bland, not really hooch (maybe her film was hooch but this shot isn't at all) but bland for sure.  It really looks like a girl eating candy though I wish that Brittany would have brought real modeling to this cheesy shoot.

11.-BIANCA
Okay first of all, I just want to say that the outfit is horrible.  Seriously, what in the world were they thinking? I find this photo dull.  Nothing really exciting about it except the outfit and that weird arm.

12.-LISA
Angry clown doesn't really work here.  I feel as though Lisa should have been really goofy in this shoot (like jumping in the air, making faces that still look pretty, etc.) but she does look pretty and I think the outfit is actually pretty cool.

13.-RACHEL
I don't really like this shot.  I hate how she looks about 4'10" rather than trying to look like 5'10" (yes I know she's a shorty but isn't the point of the cycle to look taller and prove that shorties can work? ) and I think her pose looks really stiff.  The face is pretty though.

14.-SUNDAI
Wow what a horrible diaper.  That face is just not good; it looks like some weird attempt of trying to go for a "fierce" face and failing completely.  The pose is a bit strange especially the way she's holding the cup and she looks short.  But then again, minus her eliminated photo when has she not look short?

And the show's actual call outs!
