Mark Harris - Katy_T with Lace
Her face has a normal sort of composure - so many models that you've
shown have faces with that alienated and unwilling look. That really
helps to make this image pleasant to look at.
Then her posture looks normal, not twisted or preconceived. That
mkaes this image pleasant to look at too.
Finally, the coyness of the lace routine adds an emotion of privacy,
of being a real human being who's not having her photograph taken to
show off how attitude-full she is, how contemporary, how "now".
Instead, she looks like a young woman who has a sense of keeping her
self from every prying eye, of only allowing that which is
appropriate to be seen.
So this image, to me, is appealing and successful.
