2 very good friends of mine. ( studio )
So my firends ( on the photo ) had an assignment to do, taking photos with a film camera and develop and all that. Well i help them with the light setup and after they where done, i took the liberty to snap some myself 
.
They wanted a friendly look of it. No supermodelshots without feeling. So i just let them move arround and well.. " be natural ". It was kinda hard to get the exposure right because the the lightmeeter was not working properly, and flashsync cords with bad connection etc.
Im not so good at shooting people in a studio but i kinda like this one, and i hope they will be pleased with the result.
I think they look like close firends? don´t they?.
Thanx for looking and plz give me a tip or to..So i can get better at this when its time again

They certainly do. I think they'll like it.
Regards,
Thanx for the words
I wouldn't worry about it, Arvan. The number of replies that any post gets varies enormously for purely random reasons. You are doing very well here, so just keep shooting and posting.
Cheers,
hehe yes i know that. But i need some pro help so i can improve on this
I have an uppcomping studiosession and i need some tips.
Well, one thing you might want to do is post something from the same session in the Whipping Post forum.
But be careful what you wish for :whip

Except the pose doesn’t really look that natural. It looks posed and a little awkward. So perhaps you could start with creating a more natural pose.
Instead of just winging it, I have found that it helps to have a goal, an idea that you are trying to accomplish. When winging it, you either get lucky or you don’t. If you have a goal, you can succeed in degrees. Therefore progress is more likely to be repeatable.
Also, the black background and nearly black clothing leaves the impression of the flesh floating. If you can create some shadow detail in the clothes, and perhaps in the background too, this will stabilize the photo, making it easier to view, making it softer.
One way to do this is with the nature of the light, i.e. hard vs. soft. This light appears hard. So, my suggestion is to soften it, create some more tonal range.
Finally, I would tackle the big issues first, like hard light vs soft light, posing and composition. Stray hairs are small issues.
But this is just one man’s opinion. Hope it makes some sense and hope it helps. Good luck.

I don't want the cheese, I just want to get out of the trap.

The pose..Well i just let them run arround and do whatever they wanted to so..that´s probably why i wrote natural..Wich isn´t really the correct word here.
Will work on the light and get rid of that nasty black background and go for the white..
Thanx.
