Well A few people requested that I kidnap my friend more often. So I did, no charges were filed! Whew. This was only her second time infront of the camera and still had the jitters. There will be more shoots with her, since I think she has a chance in the fashion industry.

I was also on a hiatus as this was my first shoot in over a year! (yikes) Had to dust off the camera for this one, enjoy y'all. C+C as always more than welcomed. :)

great set! Lovely model. the only thing I'd change is the color temperature, could use a little bit of warmth in my opinion. Either way, great shots you got here. Oh yeah! Almost forgot, on number 2, looks like she's flipping someone off.

Thanks!
I totally agree that they could gain about 500-800 degrees in color temp probably. Good note. :cool:

I think you are heading in the right direction. Start working more with your lighting. These are really flat. Some lighting adjustments could really makes these very nice images.

She's got a great smile and suprisingly captivating eyes. Not so sure about the choice of pants, but that's pretty minor here.

I really like the way her eyes really engage the camera. Her poses, but more importantly her position relative to the camera, could use some adjustments. Try not to have her body so square to the camera. And while I like her smile, if she is thinking of going into fashion, try to get more of a variety of facial expressions.

That said, you should continue to kidnap her (willingly, of course) and keep shooting together. With some more time shooting and posing, both of you could go places.

Thanks for the CC guys! Much appreciated, I totally agree after seeing the set her expression remains the same in most, I guess it could be her the fact this is her 2nd shoot, but still leaves me no excuse.

And yes! I will totally try some different lighting concepts next, it is flat - and that could be me being inspired by people who have the same style. :)

Thanks guys

She's beautiful. The backgrounds in 2 & 5 distract me with their tilts. Otherwise the shots look great to me.

It's easy to get the impression, but if you look closely, there are two fingers there. Still something to watch for, but at least she wasn't trying to flip anyone off.
