Love the 3D effect here.
Lighting works really well.
Quite high contrast images - they really stand out!
Good stuff!

Chris,

These shots have a great attitude to them. I could easily see these being used by a perfume or jeans company in an ad.

Nice lighting on the first shot.

I like your background for the second shot, she seems to pop out.

In my opinion, your model looks better in pants than in a skirt. I am only comparing these photos with the other thread you have:

"Once in a lifetime... need the C&C!!! "

Nice job on both. My only "criticism" is on #2 the kicker bled onto her left cheek a bit and left a somewhat distracting highlight.

I like these, Chris. Good lighting and a good looking model too.

I think I see 2 lights in the first: Key left and kicker right. Looks like 3 lights in the second: Same key and kicker plus a gelled background light, feathered from the right. Wait, there's some on-axis fill in that second shot too. BTW, I like how you controlled the spill on the background light in that one.

Well, did I get it right?
