I was listening to Ellie Goulding's song 'Starry Eyed' today which gave me the idea for this shot, this is my wonderful girlfriend who is always willing to help me out with idea's.

Any help with lighting? I just had a speed gun camera right through a shoot through umbrella and a bare flash behind her (don't think this helped much though.. Not sure if I had it pointed in the right place).

Any lighting help is appreciated as I'm trying to work with light more and more.

There doesn't seem to be much separation from the background.
You can either try aiming the second light directly at the wall, or toward the model at an angle for a rim light.

Check out this site, its a great resource you can see light set up and the results they have

I see that now.. I couldn't shoot the light at the wall as it was fabric and didn't really show up that well :(

Thanks for the link, will check it out.

What is it about the PP that you don't like? Any critique on what I could improve on is appreciated. She does have more poses, I just haven't had the time to edit the rest just yet. Will get some others up.

I think you need a hairlight in the left side of the pic and you need to soften the skin...

Yeah, working on getting a hairlight! :)

Soften the skin? I.e. Smooth it, is that what you mean?
