She photographs really well. Really, she doesn't have to smile to look pretty, She looks really nice in that, and I agree, she did very well on playing out her emotions
 
The only ones I've ever seen that I wasn't terribly fond of were the Due South promo pics....not sure what it was, possibly conveying the evil character, but I can actually say I didn't like them much. Not sure if they're online to link to, I'll have to look.

I think she looks stunning in the photo above but as for the group photo below it's ok I guess. Lighter and subtle make-up suits her better 'cause she's a natural beauty.

I love her in the first one, she looks adorable in it, but the second one, I'm not so sure about, yeah she looks pretty, but I dunno, might the lighting?
 
I agree, it probably was the lighting. Even though Melina has a medium olive complexion bright lights and subtle makeup works in her favour as opposed to drab lighting and dark make-up. Thank god the make-up people have never made her wear brown lipstick & black eye shadow. There's a difference between class and trash and Melina is pure class.
 
I'm not sure that has been posted yet but it's taken from IMDB:

I never knew she did so many extracurricular activities.
 
oooooooooh!..malista...ok,like when they are @ tha lab they are not in NY but sometimes they do filming there...got it !..*no,I'm not retarted* :lol:
 
I agree with you, Melina is pure class.

Wow, she does alot of activities,thats really great. ;) Thanks for posting that J.

They film in LA most of the time though right, except for the NY shots type?
 
Yeah, it's all filmed in LA except for the shots of NY at the beginning of every episode. I guess that's how they save money...

OT: According to an old In Style article Melina owns a ranch house somewhere in LA and she metioned that she has to hike to get to her home. I guess that's another trick to keep her fit and to make her look young.
