What do you think?

Make up is distructing - terrible. Photography job done well though.

It's a very clean, industrial shot... she's gorgeous too...

And she has that look "Hmmm... did I forget something?" which is the last thing before she realized that the toiletpaper in her hand is pretty much useless by now...

Really?

Hmmm... I think that the make up fits well with the entire situation...

Well... different tastes...

Hah... I did photoshoots where the makeup was terrible... I mean... really messed up, but the model didn't know the difference and the MUA thought it was great... didn't invite her back tho...

i tried to do a toliet series. It was the coolest thing. A waterfall men's urinal.. it was beyond cool. Thin water against chrome wall. Even cooler with a kickass female in men's bathroom idea. the theme was "Vulvarific doesn't care how long the line is. when she's gotta go, she's got to go."

guess what: 99% of the viewers never grasped she was whizzing into a urinal.


the pic is still in my port.  even the pics that showed the models feet or the whole urinal, nobody got it   back to the drawin board.

This may sound crude but if her drawers were down a little and her legs apart a little more it would be clearer what she was attempting to do.

I think the make-up is wonderful! Great job. The white rimmed eyes fits the whole theme of the photo. If you think that is horrorible. I can find alot of images with much.. much... much worse. Like you can tell the model did her own make-up. This is very professional and clean. Not caked on, not flaked off looking. No, wabbled hand eye liner. 90% of the images I see on here have bad make-up jobs.

Agreed, I had no idea what she was doing. It looks like she is laughing at the wall.
Take the image about 10 feet back. Have her panties down legs spread.
I was actually thinking she went in the glass. Because there is questionable yellow stuff in it.

I would have never gotten it either because the water you describe coming down the wall does not really show and as far as  I can tell she is just standing there looking down. I see no implication of her goin potty.

questionable yellow stuff was brandy from the bar owner.
i couldn't drop the hotshorts because then the ad couldn't run in the magazine.
even the pics from far away left people scratching their heads and confused.

i will go back to that urinal but with a different idea/motif since it won't be to sell hotshorts and now i know it's got to be a different colour fluid in the glass as to not give the warped, ideas

You are shooting a woman using a men's urinal and you are worried about warped ideas?

Good idea. Heck a stap on would give you a better idea.
Or use a classic urinal!

You could have her pull the front down A LITTLE bit, just enough to see the assymetric pantyline of undies pulled down in the front.

Then, the waterfall effect is missing, hence, for me it wasn't even clear that she was standing in front of an urinal...

Also, you could use a small hose and let apple juice flow through that could be used as a urine stream, so it'll be more visual.

I would also suggest to experiment with a tripod and a simple rear curtain sync with an off camera flash, using a diffuser and a bouncing it off a wall or ceiling.

This may give you a visible flow of the waterfall, visible apple juice stream and a well lit image.
