oh yeah, i like #1 best. this might be wrong to say, but your pubic hair really adds a nice touch... heh... :blushing:

LOL cheers JXJ! Thats the advantage of being a lady! I can be willing or unwilling depending on my mood!! LOL

These were the best i could get as i was working in a small space using my prime! Cant wait to get the studio set up!

The lighting looks fine...it's fairly abstract so there really isn't a right or wrong.
They do look underexposed though. The dark parts are nice and dark but the light parts really aren't bright enough IMO.

I'd like to see more DOF in the first one...or maybe less. The way it is, it's hard to tell what part, if any, is in focus.

I agree they are both slightly under exposed and the marks on the arm on picture 2 are distracting, In my opinion 1. is the better image.

However saying that as always the quality and composition is great.

 

[Kanikula]

TY guys! Ill get back to it then

I'm on board with everyone here that they are underexposed. I like the ideas, but I'm not digging that I can see the tattoo on the first one (no offense), it's just a bit of a distraction. I mean, it's not that the tattoo is bad, but it pulls the viewer's attention away a bit. I'll be interested to see what else you can pull off, just make sure they're well-exposed. Exposed, that's kind of a pun.

I like #2 the best, i feel that the left leg (the one closest to the camera) in #1 should have been lifted to hide the pubic hair, leave something to the imagination. But over all I really liked them. They are nice and tasteful

Most of my opinions have already been stated before seeing what others had mentioned. But after a very long study of the two images:

The lighting is good, but seems underexposed.

The edges look funny, but likely due to compression.

The marks on the arm in #2 should be cloned out.

The tatt and jewelry are a nice touch for me.

I agree with Mya that the front leg should be raised slightly. My imagination is quite vivid and I prefer to let it run wild rather than to be told.

I guess that I prefer #2, 'tis a classy pose. However, I would be more than willing to give an opinion to the rest of the photos from the session.

Thanks for sharing and kudos for stepping outside the box.

I know everyone is saying they are kinda under exposed, but maybe its my taste... I kinda like them like that

I like these. I would like to see your right leg raised slightly in the first one.

What are you getting for a studio setup? I just decided to go with a couple extra flash guns and umbrellas so I had a portable setup.
