I have a set of hot lights, One day when I know or learn what the heck I am doing, I'll get a set of bees. Nice work. Like the color as well. Please let me know which light system you got.

Thank you:)
I have 1 Alienbee AB-400, a 60" softliter, and a large reflector/stand. I think it is the perfect setup for a newbie like myself:) Here are a couple more pics I took yesterday- I ran a few color pop actions so they look a little hot but I still like them:)

The shot are nice. I second the opinion of more hair light to ease the shadows.
Great work.

Very nice shots! The highlights on the right cheeks seem a lil bright, but otherwise they are very good photos.

Very good soft and even lighting! Only problem I can find is that the tops of their heads kind of melt into the background. This can be solved by strobing a backdrop of any color, or if you want to drop out the back, use a hairlight to highlight the tops of their heads. Very good for your first attempt, btw.
