If I had a girlfriend who looked at me like this while posing I would seriously doubt our relationship.

Calling bad photos "Boyfriends Pictures" will not cut it. Girls pose for lovers prior to having sex with them, so the "Come fuck me" look is on their face, not "Pay me and Fuck Off you loser"

GFED forget everything written and listen. :)

Go and practise with your camera until you can use it blindfolded. Then start by shooting friends and work on your skills at making paople feel comfortable in front of your camera, develope a personality that you want the model to display in the pictures.

Most models are reflections of the photographer and a sign of the relationship between them and the shooter.

The worse thing about the pictures is the thought in the models head, it's your job to change it.

i think it looks very amateur =) that is a good thing :thumbsup

You avoided the mistake many first timers (and working "amateur" providers) make... You actually used light on the subject (except for the middle pic.)

Not too shabby.. But watch out what kind of makeup the model uses... Her foundation is the shiney kind, and it makes it look like she's wearing a ton of makeup. Have her use ONLY MATTE foundation for shoots, or as little as possible. Minimize on the makeup, but if they are going to wear it, make sure they don't use blues or whites or light colors.. matte browns or darker colors show up better in pictures and are generally more flattering.

The mirror in the background catches the flash a bit much and is distracting, creating some artifacts that are a little undesirable, but with practice you can learn to shoot around that kind of thing. It's all about angles.

The face is a touch washed out in some of the images.. that's probably the camera flash, which is hard to control. If you are using an on-camera flash, a good idea might be to diffuse that light a little bit when you are in a position where her face seems to wash out a bit more. An old pair of nylon stockings over the flash will diffuse that light a bit and give a pleasing result.

The model looks a touch nervous... A good idea is to have her sit and practice her facial expression in the mirror.. or if it seems she's clamming up a bit and getting self-conscious or starting to make funny faces, crack a joke, I find that always helps lighten the mood and you get that natural smile and the light behing the eyes that says she's having a good time.

Again about the mirror.. there are a few pictures that we can see you in... This is the problem with shooting where there are mirrors, you have to really watch out that you don't get included in the shots... play with the angles so that you can get her and her reflection, but not you and your flash.... Generally I suggest staying away from mirrors until you play with them a bit more, they really can be a challenge.

All in all, pretty good stuff... Good framing for the shots, good centering, good overall composition. Most of the stuff that I pointed out are technical things taht come with time and practice. I'd be pleased to offer some more suggestions, feel free to hit me up icq 3522039 or email treasure at teeniesxxx dot com.

Well done!

Well, in my opinion, if you are going to have a single girl non-nude site she better be hotter than hell. Not to be insulting, but I am not sure she has enough of what it takes to pull off a non-nude site.

:thumbsup

thats one weird looking piece of ass

Out of the whole series I would have to say that Picture #62 was my favorite.

However, I would sugjest fine tuning a few things. In some of the shots you can really tell you used a flash photoagraphy. professional photography usually uses a hard light (IE: a spot light) and a soft or "reflective" light. Something that would shine off from a white poster or bristol board to give an almost glow feeling. Also when dealing with just strictly photographs you would want to use base makeup to covor up or hide any body blemishes. Unless you're nitche for the site is to be amature it's really not a good idea to do otherwise. I'm not sure if you know how to use or even have Adobe Photoshop but having some knowledge in that program will help a great deal in editing some of those pictures.

The model you used for the shoot was, I thought, really cute. I dig her very much. However, I couldn't see myself paying a monthly subscription to see a girl I could eye hump at any local Mall. Like I said before, unless the site is geared twords a more amature "girl next door" angle you need to find some H-A-W-T girls. Also, don;t be afraid to tell the girl what exactly you want. If she doesn't smile the right way just tell her to make a wider or more sexyer smile. You are the one behind the lens and you need to tell just how beautiful the subject is or isn't. Don't be brash about it, Be polite. The girls needs to almost seduce the camera.

Also it wouldn't hurt to pick up a few books on photo editing and amature photoagraphy. I'm not saying that you need it. It's just great to have the books as a reference.
