1st Model Shoot

She looks really young. The quality of the photos are great IMO, but with the background, how young she looks, the poses, to me they kinda look a teenage girl trying to make sexy MySpace pics. But really good quality nice looking sexy MySpace pics if that helps lol!

I think you did a good job, #2 is my least favorite and I think the lighting needs work in # 3

Lighting: For #2, you can see a hotpot on the floor behind the model. For #3, a good portion of her face needs to be opened up a bit, the light that you used from the left was blocked by the sideways fall of her hair. Any sort of refector would have put some light into that area, or your key lighting could have come from the other side where it would not have been blocked.

What was your lighting set up?

Trev, did you still have room to move back? Your lens is way too wide IMO on the 2nd shot.

I might have had a little more room behind me, but not much. I don't enjoy the 24-70 as a portrait lens but indoors I'm limited to it. She moved out of the 'zone' in #3

Here's the diagram. Softbox III used to direct hair highlights rear left (camera)

Thank you and thanks for the comments, all. Here is one more last one but I'll be uploading to flickr more as I edit.

the blinds make it too distractive

Lighting on this last one much better balanced. Much.

What is the reasoning you had to put the blue fabric underneath her? The blue fabric does nothing but hurt your image because you have a nice hardwood! Her outfit is all over the place too. You need to simplify things.
