BTS: Vintage smoke self portrait

[TheGauloisesmoker]

oh my gosh.. that is super sexy!

[kiman2]

Lovely photos. One tip as a former smoker. It's hard for non-smokers to accurately look like they're smoking. See video "woman smoking in the office" for cues. See how her hand is curled and to the side and not trying to force it to hold the cigarette so straight and in front and looks natural? Also the look of inhaling in the cheeks (sucking in) would be a nice touch. Finally, when not inhaling, smokers rarely hold the cigarette close to their face but usually down below the waist. Great work!

u r beautiful.. marry me?? XD hahaa

[Noumonika]

Hi which len that you mostly use for your portrait shot? It look so sharp. Hope you answers soon. Loved all your shots btw :)

[7SamMurai]

You're awesome behind AND in front of the lens!

[7SamMurai]

Don't know why you didn't pursue modelling. You don't need to be tall to look so hot!

[akaolive]

Cigarettes are bad, but the smoke is very artistic, which is why I like these photos. :)

[Sparklinglips]

God you are so beautiful!

[msvivacious100]

The pictures turned out lovely! Props for you for "smoking" the cigarette. I wouldn't have been able to do that considering I strongly dislike the smell of it! Yuck :(

[HuabVajRocks1]

@msvivacious100 Lol it's a piece of paper but yeah the smoke was too much

[drewnetwork]

You're too beautiful to smoke. Magnificent images, despite the cigarette.

Send me a note if you're ever in Virginia and I'd be honored to do a shoot or two of you.

[HuabVajRocks1]

@drewnetwork that would be wonderful! I love working with new people

[hmonggirl89]

[HuabVajRocks1]

@hmonggirl89 it's a piece of paper because i'm a whimp lol

[kawaii99999]

how is it real smoke but a fake cigarette?

[HuabVajRocks1]

@kawaii99999 it's a piece of paper

[beautyfyme]

The cigarette was unnecessary

[sirnubenegra]

@beautyfyme i totally agree.

[beautyfyme]

@sirnubenegra i think she should of replace the cigarette with something else.. perhaps holding a nice vintage umbrella in the background.. now that's nice..

[MasterpezeProduction]

@beautyfyme also agree, she could replace it with a lollipop or something else.

[HuabVajRocks1]

@MasterpezeProduction i really wanted to try something new, something that i haven't tried yet so i wanted to play with smokes it's just something i've been wanting to do, i know smoking is very controversial but i took a risk here and there like photographers should.

[sirnubenegra]

why? glamming up cigarrets? have you seen how smokers really look. anyways. they do sell fake cigarettes, and you can create smoke in photoshop. bye. you are beautiful no need to enhance your eyes.

[HuabVajRocks1]

@sirnubenegra doing it in photoshop doesn't always look real

[sirnubenegra]

@HuabVajRocks1 you will be surprised. smoke is very easy to replicate. even when o paint on canvas. but either way making cigarettes look cool is to 1950's. is just gross.

[VietFood]

Awesome :DDD I thought nooo! you smoke.. but then oh.. it's fake XD (L)

[twiinkless]

wowow! these photoshoots are beautiful :)))

[HuabVajRocks1]

@twiinkless thank you
