A nightmare it may have been, but the results are worth it.

This reminds me of Balthus, he was great with moody pubescent girls.
A very misunderstood artist.
The shot captures her perfectly and has a subtle sexual appeal, intrigue,etc.
Well done

Thanks you for your kind comments. Back story, Jen and I and another young woman shared a studio. One day Jen mentioned she still had her old Catholic school uniform and it still fit her. So, I asked, and she said sure. I also like this because it is from an original 8 x 10 negative, and the digital unsharp mask is a touch of 21st century technology to make the most of it.

I thought maybe you had a thing for young women with rhyming names. Seriously, it's a nice character study.

@Ken Bingham, Ha, names are never that important. I have pictures of girlfriends, but most are just friends and also artists' models whom I paid. Strictly business.
