First two look too orange.. did you use a gold reflector?, and the model looks really "stiff"... Tan lines can be Pshopped-out..
Third pic looks too desaturated for my tastes.
L8tr!

Didn't think the first two were very crisp considering the equipment you are using. Perhaps you softened in post. Agree that the color looks off as well.

I liked the lines in the 3rd. Perhaps a slight amount of fill on her face may have helped as her waist and right arm appear brighter.

Best,
Gerry

I like them all. I can see where some people might be put off by the warmer lighting in the first two, but it doesn't bother me.

The third is my favourite though. Excellent pose

I was using a white reflector. I did try to warm it up a bit by asjusting white balance a little. Thanks for the look and coments!

I shot the first two with the kit lens. I was actually fairly surprised at how sharp they were. It looks fairly sharp on my machine at home.

Points well taken about the lighting on the 3rd. Thanks for looking!

I really cranked the contrast/saturation on these. I might scale it back a bit before I print.

Thanks for the kind words!

Number 2 is my favourite - think the warm lighting really suits this shot, and like the expression.

Real nice shots!

Thanks. I wish I could take the credit but she did most of the work.

She is a very tall model - so I was a bit skeptical about how to go about getting "in the grass" pictures. She looked very lanky when perpendicular to the camera. I suggested just getting comfy in the grass and I walked around her to look for a good angle. Once I saw something I liked - I asked her to replicate what she was doing but to rotate for the sake of lighting.

Thanks for commenting!

That pose is awesome for a few reasons. It gets the whole hands thing right out of the way, it looks super comfortable, and that shadow across her jeans in the front is super sexy. Great work, but somehow you have to put the skin tone back in this one! Its such a keeper!

Cheers

The 3rd pose is great...even though there is a bit of nipple showing.

Did everyone miss that or did I just see something that isn't there?

Your overactive imagination I assure you.
