9. Mercedes’ high fashion beauty shot
This was the moment when Mercedes proved that she was a very competent all arround model and that she was able to pull off high fashion despite her more commercial look. To me it solidified her spot in the finale over Shandi.
1. Yoanna and Shandi’s nude shot
I had trouble picking my top picture for cycle 2, as I think that all of the top 4 photos could deserve this spot. But on last minute I settled on this one. The reason ? I think it’s a daring photograph considering the time it has been taken, and the comitment of Shandi and Yoanna is so amazing that it makes this love scene extremely believable. And let’s not forget the fact that they both look insanely gorgeous.
2. Yoanna’s high fashion beauty shot
This photo is just so striking. Yoanna’s face is litteral perfection here. Her cheekbones are one fire, the colour of her eyes is crazy, her skin is flawless, and she’s serving strong eye contact with the viewer. This is such a fashionnable and editorial photo.
3. April’s Garden of Eden shot
April proved herself to be a strong contender when she entered the show with a top 3 photo of the cycle. I love her regal attitude here, and I love the fact that you can feel this attitude in every inches of her body, while she’s still selling the hell out of the few accessories she had to work with .
4. April’s Quench underwater shot
April looks like a red underwater dragon on this photograph. I love how she’s extending her body and fiercly looking towards her, while still keeping a softness in her face. This photo allies perfectly grace and dynamism, and that’s what I like about it.
5. Catie’s Quench underwater shot
Catie’s pose on this photo is just sensationnal, especially considering the fact that she was underwater. She managed to create a character, and to perfectly embody the underwater nymph brief. It really didn’t get the recognition it deserved on the show.
6. Yoanna’s Solstice Sunglasses advert
I’m a fan of understated shot with a very strong and high fashion concept, and this photo is one of the better examples of that. Yoanna is just standing there, but she’s expensive, tall, elegant, and definitely selling the concept.
8. Shandi’s Shelli Segal shot
Shandi was a very inconsistent model, but when she did good, she totally destroyed it. And this photo is no exception. The fact she’s so in control of her body despite being suspended above giant holes is really impressive from her, and first of all she kept the fashionnable aspect of the concept.
