Nice!!

Well done

Well done

Thanks!

Very good, the only thing that bothers me is in the first picture the vertical window frame going through her head, if she was 1' to the left it would just be cleaner, overall very nice

Interesting point, thank you. Normally that sort of thing irks me also; at the very least I'm glad it leads into her expression but it isn't adding much either.

its a gorgeous picture, the lighting, pose, her figure, your angle of view, the vertical wood frame does also define the front of her face and now that i look at it more the highlights on the left side of her face wouldve gotten lost with the highlights of the water behind if she was not against the frame

I get tired of saying this... But this another GWC shoot being billed as fashion, presumably because it makes the shooter feel cooler. Fashion is either editorial, which means very strong concepts showing a life style, or it is commercial, ****showing the clothes to a prospective buyer.***

Obviously this shoot isn't editorial. As for showing the clothes, only shot 1 comes close and it would be culled from a catalogue shoot - you can't see enough of the cut. The second picture is an ass pic, not a fashion shot. For the 3rd, 4th, 5th pics you'd crop closer in. Except the 5th makes the model look uncomfortable and gives her huge feet, thickened thighs and shortens her legs.

..Commercial fashion is about taking pictures that show what clothes look like. These are acceptable as boudoir, as fashion they're fails.

Thanks, David. You are right that I posted them in the wrong category. But no I didn't bill it as such to feel cooler. I appreciate your criticisms on the posing but you can get the h**l out of here with that bs. You don't know me and you shouldn't presume to. I also think you may have a narrower definition of editorial than most particularly in current terms. Maybe I caught you on a bad day.

i love the natural light, the retouch is excellent but i agree David, well done frank, just Keep eye in the bra of the girl in the first picture, look a little loose

>> You don't know me and you shouldn't presume to

No, I don't know you. That's why I said "presumably". However, what I said makes a lot more sense to me that your story. I mean, really - you meant to post them in boudoir but selected fashion instead and didn't notice? Or say anything or do anything about it when you realised the mistake?

Have a great day David, done entertaining you. Unless you have any more useful criticisms, kindly relieve me of your pettiness.

Thank you Augusto, I think her pose started loosening it. The lingerie set was an add-on to some swimwear editorials we had shot earlier. Perhaps the simple fact that they occurred on the same day made me treat it as such, and not strictly as boudoir. I hope everyone else can deal with that, just enjoy the hot model.

Don't take the criticisms too personally. Saying you hope people "can deal with that" somewhat goes against your original caption for the post saying that you were open to comments and critiques. Personally, I think you've got some solid work here.

Take this as you will. For me, the two shots that stood out the strongest were the two where your model is not looking at camera. I think part of it was the facial expressions she chose, her expressions in the last two shots don't engage nearly as well as the one she has in the shot of her standing. For the lingerie/boudoir sort of vibe, those two where she's staring off camera have more of an elemental feel, which I think lends to the genre a little better.

In all the shots, I loved your lighting! That smooth, higher key light worked really well for these and it contrasted quite nicely with the darker outfit that she's wearing, especially those shots where she's on the bed. I dig it.

Great set Frank ...posing, lighting and post on pointe !!!

For your first lingerie shoot, the images are good. The model is beautiful. The natural lighting is soft. Watch out for the objects in the background.If there was anything I might change would be the hand & arm positions. Thank you for sharing the images. Keep shooting with this model.

Wow. I'm new here. Looks like a tough crowd though!
This is a terrific series, very nice work indeed. I'm a little put off that someone dropped the GWC remark on these. :/

Maybe I'll wander off now... not sure this is the place for me: no drama pls.
