Hi Jessica! I see you've found the light Nik provided I like the pose in #2 Nik. Would be fun to see some more

Enjoy!

Here's my armchair critique. And yes, I recognize it can be a LOT easier to make suggestions after a shoot than to actually implement the ideas during a shoot

#1 her chin seems too far down, not sure if it's the most flattering angle for this model

#2 very minor, but there's a little bit of spill from your rim light on her nose, which draws my eye to her nose. Wouldn't normally care about this but her nose may not be what you want to highlight for this particular model.

#3 really nice shot-- maybe a bit darker eye makeup and lips would help though?

#5 what a body! She looks great in that dress so I hope you shot more in that outfit But I'm not crazy about the background or font you used here, Nik. It looks kind of amateur. But the lighting is great!

Pete,
thank you very much, appreciate the nits!

The whole thing was kinda make-shift (I don't normally do headshots these days:-), so I had to work with what I got.

And since she's obviously an amateur, I thought an amaterish type would suit her:-)

Cheers!
