Nathalie Chaput
WOW Shelly, awesome portrait… She is so beautiful!!

Thank you so very much Nathalie….very kind words :)
Johanne Brunet
It’s a beautiful portrait Shelly. I believe you have found the perfect balance between just enough focus in the eyes, and afetching angelic softness. As for the model, my 14 year-old son’s reaction is a great testimony. He came into my office as I was writing these lines, looked at the screen over my shoulder and said: “WOW! Who is she? Where does she live? How old is she?”
Shelly Hiebert replied
First of all, thank you so very much for your kind comment Johanne! Second of all, I am still wiping the tears from my face from laughing so hard at your son’s reaction! Too funny! I called my daughter up to read it and she got the giggles as well and asked were you guys lived! Get a picture of him up for her okay?! (I am still giggling!)
dancinfreakshow
Such intense look in her eyes. Absolutely wicked portrait Shelly. Yup, wicked:)
Shelly Hiebert replied
She thought she looked mad but I don’t. I like intense…that is a good way of putting it. Thanks so much for your comment Robert :)
Mechellerene
Beautiful girl, fantastic capture of her!
Shelly Hiebert replied
Heya Mechelle! Thank you very much for your lovely comment :)
Christian Hartung
BEAUTIFUL GIRL AND BEAUTIFUL SHOT, WELL DONE
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thank you kindly Christian :)
Johanne Brunet
Glad I could provide you with a mother and daughter moment of merriment. LOL! Just reading about your reaction made me laugh! Unfortunately, Phillip is not really photogenic and he hates being photographed. I was really lucky to get these two shots. The first one is a candid shot of my two sons, with Phillip in the foreground. and the second shot, I just uploaded for the occasion and it is one of my first portraits in natural light. I had a few of his friends talk to him to make him relax and forget the camera a bit while I was shooting away.
He’s a bright and sweet boy… most of the time anyway! ;-)
Shelly Hiebert replied
Both photos are the portrait of your son. I would love to see the other one as also :) And by the way…my daughter is a sweet bright girl….most of the time as well ;)
Iain Mavin
Wonderful portrait, you can see where she gets her looks from, like Mother like daughter. Beautiful both. By the way she has your eyes.
maybe she might give them back someday !
Shelly Hiebert replied
You are too kind Iain :) Glad you like it and I will be sure to ask for my eyes back!
Alan Findlater
excellent capture well done
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thank you very much Alan :)
John Quinn
Lovely portrait Shelly. She looks beautiful, obvious where she got her looks from
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thank you and thank you John :)
TFFDavid
Absolutely stunning photograph Shelly, I think it’s one of your best. :-)
Shelly Hiebert replied
Wow! Thank you very much David! I just purchased a new camera and luckily my daughter likes to ‘model’ for me :)
TFFDavid
Really, what camera did you you get?
Shelly Hiebert replied
I got the Nikon D90. I will tell you all about it later…..
Clare Forder
Amazing shot Shelly – love the comp and the expression on her face is great – beautiful all round!
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thanks so much Clare :)
Johanne Brunet
Oooops, sorry! Here is the two brothers’ candid portrait with Phillip in the foreground.
Shelly Hiebert replied
That is such a great photograph Johanne! I will have to show Abi that one as well ;)
Andy Mueller
Beautiful shot of a beautiful subject, very nice Shelly! Love the composition.
Shelly Hiebert replied
Your opinion means a lot to me so hopefully you are not messing wih my Mr. Mueller! Thanks by the way :)
Shelly Hiebert replied
Messing with my HEAD! Missed the head part :(
TFFDavid
Okey doke, I’ll be waiting . . . with pizza. lol
Pete Costick
Oh how beautiful, that look; intense yet soft. Love the focus on those eyes, drifting into blur over her shoulder. So effective how you’ve framed this portrait and the mono really works well.
I envy both you having such a beautiful and willing model/daughter and your creative talent.
Shelly Hiebert replied
I love how you have described this Pete! That is exactly what I was going for with the focus on the one eye being the strong point and the rest slighty fading out. Glad you picked that up. I am pretty lucky to have her model for me and even more lucky to have her as a daughter…she is a great kid :) Thanks so much for wonderful comment as always Pete :)
Francesca Rizzo
wow shelly, she’s gorgeous. well done, great capture
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thank you very much Francesca! It is scarey how comfortable she is in front of the camera. Apparently she is the head of her drama class as well, which I am not surprised at! Taking photos of her is pretty easy! Thanks again :)
Francesca Rizzo
good for her, tell her to follow her dream.
Shelly Hiebert replied
There is not tellin’ that girl anything! She knows what she want so anything I say will just be support at this point!

Rachel Gartly
I’m a sucker for negative space myself! I find it very powerful.
David Geoffrey...
I think I have said this before but I love your portrait work. Also you have very photogenic daughters, like myself. I love taking their picture. Them not so much!!!:) Always got the camera in their face.
They got their looks from me! Pity there is none left ;)
Shelly Hiebert replied
Sorry for the late reply David! When you have nice things to say like you have just now….please feel free to say them as often as you like lol! My oldest will NOT let me take photos of her but this one loves the camera :)
And tell your girls to give back the looks eh?!
Cheers David :)
Scott Denny
Goodness…she is a looker. Keep this gal on a leash and put huge walls around your home. :-)
