C+C is much appreciated! I think they are fairly improved from the first shoot with one of them (https://photography-on-the.net …hread.php?t=771​526&page=2).

Clarity, focus and lighting is amazing. :D These are excellent shots.

(Also, the first one looks like she's inside of the ground. Made me lol.)

I'll second that #3 and 7 are the best of the bunch. #1 is just a wierd angle looking like she has only half a body. #2, 4 and 5 appear tilted to the right a bit.

Love your WB and sharpness of the shots. Processing looks really smooth.

Here are some nitpicks. I think the shots are great though! In #1, I wish you would have moved to the right or left a bit to show her body. In #3, I think it would have been much more flattering to her if her whole face was tilted up a bit more. The eyes look great though! In #4 her hand on the ground has an unnatural placement. If she had moved it more to her right then I think it wouldn't be as odd looking to me. #7 & 8 aren't very flattering to her because she is hunching a little bit. But as I said, these shots are great!

I like the set very much, I was reading your post from a year ago, and I liked the set then, but I like the new one better.


I love this

in the first photo how did you get the bokeh effect surrounding her?

Thanks for all the comments guys. The criticism is very helpful.

Its simply a bokeh texture added in post. I dont know if I like it or not.

#3 is my favorite.

The first shot is nice also though Im not digging the bokeh texture. It seems too close to the subject, if you know what I mean....

1, 6, & 8 are my favorites. I love the lighting on all of these, beautiful. Is the bokeh-like circle pattern on the first picture photoshopped? If so, I think it's a little much and takes away from the beautiful model and colors.

Really nice set. Good color, sharp, good posing.

Except for #1 - that just doesn't work. Unless she really doesn't have any legs, or waist. I do like the effect you used there though. The image is technically terrific but artistically doesn't work at all.

Thanks for all the kind words. I'll try #1 again with less opacity on the texture and see how it looks.
