I shoot in hotels too - that's no excuse. Those 550's alone put out very hard / contrasty light and that's not very flattering to most girls who don't have great bone structure and skin. Softening the light anyway that you can will help out a lot. That could be shooting thru an umbrella, bouncing off a wall or shooting thru a white bedsheet. Next time you shoot in a hotel - take the white bedsheet off of the bed and clamp it between two stands and shoot your 550 thru it - it'll be gorgeous
