2nd for me.

Both are excellent, but 2nd one just edges it for me.

personally i find more details in the 2nd picture, the bottom of the first picture is kinda bland so ....

It's a matter of taste, I prefer the first one.

thanks for the input everyone.

I prefer the second (landscape orientation). The extra negative space adds to the feeling that she is staring off into the distance. I also think that in the first you lose a bit too much of the lower half of the dress in shadow. On its own that's not necessarily a bad thing (I personally like strong shadows), but since the floor and her feet are so well lit it makes the "missing" part of the dress seem out of place.

#2!!! Love the drama it adds to the shot!!!

I love both but I think I like 2 more if you even add more negative space.

I like the 2nd one because it nicely mixes the model's detail and the logo image.
I could see the 2nd one in an ad, etc.

The first one is nice from a photographic point of view, but the logo is somewhat lost overlaying the platform like that.
So I couldn't see that first one in an ad due to the logo being overshadowed by the background. Maybe a fake background black paintbrush behind the logo of the first one would help it.

But both are nice shots.

Not worried about the logo location. I think the full shot would be great as a 16x20

Without question, I find the second one much more appealing.
