I took these about a month ago I finally got the chance to do some post-processing. Comments welcome. I used a black velvet background with 2 homedepot shop lights we use at work. One positioned at her and the other I dont even know.....lol. Using a 18-55mm lens @ 55mm f/4 with 380ex flash. The girl came for an a job application at work unfortunately I am not hiring at the moment so I asked her if she would be interested in doing some side work. I paid her 75 for 3 hours worth of work. While I'm at this point is this a fair amount for 3 hours of shooting time with models I dont know what the going rate is. I found out she would do nude in the future so I think I might have some projects to work with here in the near future. I think it might have been the 75 dollars that did.

Well here goes.

I really like the black and white and the forth one with the eye and the eyes is nice.

Very nice. She looks very relaxed. Lucky you to get to shoot her nude. I don't have the guts to just ask someone to model with their clothes on let alone nude...lol.

i really love the black and white. Her eyes are just gorgeous. I like in the black and white how her lip gloss is shining

I did the eyes and lips with the dodge tool or burn tool which ever brightens.

I am definitely no expert on portraits, and I really like these, although on the last one, the shadow under her nose is a little distracting. Other than that, WOW! These are beautiful--I wish I could get photos like this...
