I really like the 2nd pair (of photos as well) ... great lighting.

I think they are great images. To critique the images here would not really be a critique on your part but a critique on the model. Clearly she is very attractive, but those poses just do not seem to be working for me. I think the images themselves are great. Good job on your part, but just dont feel the poses are very great. I prefer discrete nudity where as this seems to be very direct. Not that it never works, I just do not think that is the case here. Maybe you could have tried a couple different angles???? Just a few thoughts and my cheap opinions. You asked for them!

Couldn't do a hell of a lot with angles, the light is coming from the back left corner onto her, therefore I couldn't really change the angle of the image, if I got down on the ground, her head would have looked too small.

Purhapse you like these better?

These are all great images but I prefer the first two of the second set of images of this series. Nice job. I think you are making your father proud.

Yes, definitely, considering I sold her that camera back at the beginning of the year and she had absolutely no idea how to use it. I gave her a 2 week crash course before she moved south and apart from a couple of times with her since, she has found ways to teach herself. Including getting critique from this website. She's done so well.

1 week! it was only a week, got it off you the week before, but it wasn't til the second week before I moved that you threw lots of skills and information at me that made my head explode. I'm surprised at how much I remembered.

This isn't my day-to-day type of photo shoot, but it was interesting and an experience to do. She's an experienced model also, so made it alot easier.

I really liked the first n second black and white option, since it gives a bit of movie mood

I REALLY like these Chantelle - Very nice work! I especially dig the shots with moody lighting. The only pose (but the exposure and colours are good) I'm not fond of would be the second set in post 4...aside from that well done!:highfive:

Yes if you are interested in photography you head will explode from information but it just glosses my wife's eyes over *LOL*

Well done on the images:)

I really like the first set. It seems to have a very natural effect, where the others are very obious poses. Also reminds me of what my girlfriend does in the morning when she wakes up, exactly what that pose is, just a good stretch for the roof...

Although, for some reason, in all of them, the black and white just is not working for me. I'm not sure if it's the lighting or if she may be tanned a little too much for the lighting to work with for these shots.
