Shot with my 40D and 70-200 2.8.

1x 430EX
2x Vivitar 285HV
Cybersyncs!

This was my first time shooting posed portraits, feel free to critique.

Now with more photos!

I don't feel these are quite as good as the first, but I thought they were allright.

I agree on the lighting and pop, but am not overly fond of the angle. Her left eye seems a bit clouded.

Hey man... good luck with tommorrow's shoot, and damn fine job on the one you've posted here. To me, this is the greatest, most rewarding, and entertaining type of photography, and you're nailing it. Hope to see your next shoot. Post more than one image next time too!!! :)

Or I could just not be lazy and click on your website link, which I just did. Saw three more of her, all top notch by the way. You have some hidden? :)

Ah... you posted them as I was looking at your website!

Again, I like them, alot. You've got some skills my friend. Hope to see more very soon.

I think some of the credit goes to the model, as it didn't take too much to make her shine.
