Portrait Contest Week 5 Entry #2: Up the Coast

This is my second entry into the week 5 portrait contest hosted by @jasonrussell.

Here we have Kiera striking a pose amongst a field of flowers in California. She likes to wear all black and once I started sifting through the photos from this shoot I realized that the use of mostly black in the foreground (dress, hair and nails) complimented the vibrant colors around and behind her very well.

If she had worn a vibrant outfit for this location the viewer would be somewhat overwhelmed and far less likely to focus on her.

Sometimes the model saves the day.
