These were shot with a D3s/70-200 2.8 at 2.8 since that is where the aperture is stuck.

    1/2/6 - YUM!!

    Not so crazy about the processing on the others - the blacks are a bit plugged up and the contrast starts to feel like an instagram or phone filter. #5 is GLORIOUS for light, posed and expression, I just feel like it's overcontrasty (on this monitor, anyway).

    Love the directions you're going with your lighting! thumb.gif

    Agree mostly with Diva's comments. With a little eye work 6 & 7 would scream off the paper.

    Thanks, these don't have too many edits on them, I mostly concentrated on her face so when she pics her favorites I'll make an overall edit as well.

    I really like 5, but I guess for different reasons. It was overcast at sunset. I had an orange gel on off camera flash which made her orange and the background grey. Converting the RAW I cooled the temp and the gray became blue and she gained a more daytime look. I like it because it mimics a bright sunny day and I can file this trick away for family and beach weddings that may be overcast and I can try to give them the look of a bright beach day.

    gorgeous.
    Though, #4 is.. questionable to me. my first reaction was that she has quite a belly on her.
    Arseny - the too honest guy.

    Good shooting, I opt for pose 1 & 5 both have that look that those pictures need . A bit teasing and playful. The models expression is superb.
    2-4-6 have a bit much volume issues, 2- the low hanging breast is not that flattering , the pose and long stretched opening in the blouse amplifies that view. ( i not saying that the model is not pretty, she is).
    4-The belly comes out a bit less elegant, due to the pose.
    6-Massive shoulder, an effect of shooting

    Liquify can help those few issues,,,, But never the less well done thumb.gif

    Thanks for the detailed critiques. As a photographer I am looking a lighting ,composition etc and I want to get better at recognizing pleasing angles and poses while shooting so I can have more keepers. I overlook important small details so feedback like that is great for me.

    Loving the eyes in 7.....

    On 2, what is the ?shadow? under her left breast? At first I thought it was a forearm, but there's no way that's her right arm. Is the shirt sheer and the yellowish area is coming from behind her thru the shirt?
