WEEK 1 ::: SWIMWEAR COUTURE
1. Cassi
Cassi may be a psycho (though her attitude is improving) with Tahlia's attitude about the competition, but she can take one hell of a photo. This is a really hard pose to hold, but she pulls it off effortlessly.
2. Lola
That's a weird face, but I love her pose. She looks like a great pin-up.
3. Clare
Her body looks great, and that face is kind of literally orgasmic.
4. Georgie
Considering that she's hoisting up that huge ball, I think this photo is really cute and pretty graceful. Love that face.
5. Madison
I wish we could see more of the suit (the full version is much better), but she looks really beautiful. Do something with that hair and she's awesome.
6. Tahnee
Again, I wish we could see more of the swimsuit... but she's working all the weird accessories she was given, and she's really beautiful.
7. Eloise
The face is wacky and it seems like a poor imitation of Claire's, but great body on this one, and she's showing it off well.
8. Adele
It wasn't bottom two worthy, but it wasn't great either. I love her posiness, actually, she looks very pin-up girl. But it's off in the face and the angle is kind of odd (not that that's her fault).
9. Franky
I like her body pose a lot minus the weird arm. But her face is just kind of odd.
10. Leah
It's just... not great. I think it's kinda cute, but it also looks like she has a headache.
11. Laura M.
WAAYYYY too squinty and we need to see more of the suit.
12. Laura T.
It's pretty blah. Her ass looks thick and this photo honestly reminds me of little else other than some celebrity caught by the paparazzi sunbathing, and putting her hand up to block it. Not a model.
13. Mikarla
No, it's not the worst thing for a model to be INCREDIBLY skinny. It IS really bad, however, when you pose like that and look like you're being tortured on the rack when you're that skinny.
WEEK 2 ::: SUSPENDED TRAPEZE
1. Laura M.
Homegirl nailed it. That's all. It's amazing she got that pose while all scrunched up.
2. Clare
Gorgeous ethereal fashion nymph.
3. Madison
It's a little messy... but I love the energy. It's really engaging. I wish the clothes looked just a little better.
4. Georgie
I think she looks really calm and collected and I love her pose.
5. Cassi
I love how relaxed she looks, like she's hanging out by a wall or something, but I don't like that smirky weird face.
6. Franky
I love her pose, even if she is very showgirl.
7. Mikarla
She looks a little disheveled and sweaty, but overall, I get kind of an ethereal effect from this photo. Her body looks great this week.
8. Eloise
She looks pretty disheveled and she's got a titscrepancy, but... I don't know. It's not that bad. I like her pose.
9. Leah
There's nothing special in this photo, but it's not offensively bad. She could use a little more lightness in her eyes and face, because she looks so dull.
10. Lola
I actually really like her face, but her pose is lamer than Leah's. She's just sitting there, but she's managed to completely distort her arms. Also, her legs look REALLY skinny, and I suspect they were almost completely Photoshopped. It looks like she's afraid of showing her underwear so she CLAMPED them together, which is never exactly a great look.
11. Tahnee
I like how she was going for something different and her face looks so pretty and soft, but this photo is just a noooo. She looks fat, she's missing one of her legs and her other limbs look short, weird, and distorted. And uh, what's up with the boobs?
12. Adele
I remember in full view, this is much better... but I still don't like it. Her face just photographs badly and she looks wide. Either way, it's the worst of the week.
WEEK 3 ::: NATURAL BEAUTY SHOTS
1. Tahnee
It's beautiful but ethereal. It really looks like the cover of some high-end fashion magazine. She still looks youthful, but she looks really mature as well.
2. Eloise
Incredible. I love the expresssion she's giving with her eyes, and how she went for something a little different than the other girls and totally succeeded.
3. Clare
She is otherworldly... that's all. Like the judges said, I get this very ethereal Cate Blanchett in Lord of the Rings thing from her.
4. Mikarla
It's so soft and pretty. She transformed the pain she was feeling in her eyes into total passion.
5. Madison
Wow, she looks like a movie star from the '70s in this photo. It's so glamorous. I love the look on her face. Damn, these photos are all so amazing!!
6. Cassi
The teeth kind of ruin it a little bit, but I think it has this "I'm caught in the moment" beauty about it. She really transforms into gorgeousness on any given set.
7. Franky
I like this angle on her face. You can see her bone structure so well, her makeover did wonders for her. I love the slight parting of the lips, but she's not pushing it as far as these other girls.
8. Georgie
She looks fresh, but kind of... pedo young. And something about her face looks almost masculine... something with the styling, I think. I'm not crazy about it.
9. Adele
Again, her face just photographs ugly. And her hair is WAAAYYY too bright, it'll clash with everything.
10. Laura M.
Who the hell styled her hair? I would like to fire them. But she's not doing a whole lot to help, either... she looks really old around her eyes and lips.
11. Lola
LULZ.
WEEK 4 ::: MOVEMENT FOR KOTEX
I don't know why they needed a double elimination, dammit!
1. Madison
I love how whimsical, yet controled that is. She's got such fire in this photo.
2. Mikarla
Fantastic photo. I love that coy look and the movement. Damn her bad attitude, she was only improving photo-wise!
3. Clare
I didn't think she could pull off "adorable," but she totally does it. Ugh, she's wonderful. I love that little leg kick. So cute!
4. Adele
FINALLY she gives me something! That face is a little wonky still, and the body is... I dunno, something's off, but I am an absolute SUCKER for WIND IN THE HAIR! And she's got a great pose.
5. Lola
That dress makes her look pregnant, but I love her pose and her face looks amazing.
6. Laura M.
You know what... I do like that expression on her face. It's very coy. And she looks like Chanel Iman. But I don't see the energy that I do in the others' photos.
7. Cassi
It's awkward, and the proportions of that dress are kind of odd. Her face just looks uncomfortable. But she looks long and lean. It's not a bad photo.
8. Eloise
Great pose. AWFUL face.
9. Franky
That dress looks unflattering on her. And her face is just awful, old and drag.
10. Tahnee
Beautiful face... but I don't see energy and her body looks thiiick.
WEEK 5 ::: LINGERIE IN THE DESERT
1. Clare
More or less perfection... she really got that high fashion editorial broken down thing, plus she's showing off the clothes so well.
2. Tahnee (I'm using the website version, but I'd put the show's version here too)
AMAZING. Her body doesn't look perfect, but I think she looks like a woman, not some stick. Her pose is so determined and it really looks like an ad.
3. Cassi
As a photo, it's BEYOND outstanding. That face is PERFECTION. As a lingerie ad... where is the lingerie?!
4. Franky
I think this is easily her best photo yet. She really pulled off that pose and doesn't look uncomfortable. Her signature scowl is working great.
5. Adele
I just don't like where it's cut off, plus it looks like she needs to tone up a bit. It's good, but it's not special. Maybe it's the best her face has looked though, if not last week.
6. Madison
It's just kind of... stiff. And I see a lot of "sexual assault victim," which isn't good at all.
7. Lola
It's dull, and her proportions look off with the weird cropping.
8. Laura M.
I love her... but her photos were never top tier except Week 2. She looks thick and her face just looks bad.
WEEK 6 ::: CHANEL (!!!!) POSING
1. Lola
Yeah, I didn't think she could pull this off either. But she looks positively divine. Love that bone structure, and her pose.
2. Tahnee
I know it was just a test shot or something, but it's divine. She looks tiny, and I love the pose. She's making it look expensive... I see a sexy schoolmarm or something. I think it's wonderful.
3. Clare
The face is a little weird, she looks slightly fishy, but I love that pose. It's just so subtly couture, yet sexy at the same time.
4. Cassi
She looks very disengaged, but again, I get sexy schoolteacher. She looks like she's wearing Chanel... you can tell it's expensive just by her pose.
5. Adele
Best picture of the season, Sarah? Whuh? I like that smirk but her face STILL DOES NOT LOOK GOOD. And I'm not crazy about her pose, obviously she looks all scrunched up.
6. Laura M.
Well, she looks beautiful, but it's just so dull. She could be advertising anything, and that's not good for freaking Chanel. She didn't deserve to leave, though, not over...
7. Franky
I don't think she's as bad as most AT ALL. But this photo isn't good at all. That pose is lame, and she looks really hunched and in an uncomfortable way, not a high fashiony way. Her signature snarl/scowl looks awful. You know she'd do this pose and that face no matter what she was selling, too. Blah.
I love this show SFM. LOVE!
