Very nice series! She does look very comfortable around a camera.

Very well done as a set.
Some minor tweaks could bring these next level:
- get rid of leaves in the first one
- *absolutely* don't include the trash can in the third one; and switch which knee is up so it doesn't appear to be an "upskirt" shot if that makes sense.

Diana, sun worshipper!
#1 my fave. The rim light distracted me so that I didn't notice the darned trashcan.
Did you desat the boards in #4? I'd explore finishing the desat. What a great set.

Thank you for your valuable advice!
My Photoshop skills are not so high and an attempt to remove an object from the frame would lead to dirty spots in its place, and cropping would spoil the composition.
I made several versions of this frame, including the ones you recommend, with the camera at a higher shooting point, but Diana chose this particular frame, saying "I love provocations!!!"

Thank you for the answer! Yes, I liked #1 even on the shoot, when I quickly glanced at the camera screen!
On boards #4, a Camera RAW filter is applied with an increased clarity value, the low color saturation on them is of natural origin.
The trash can is on the periphery of the frame and is made in the style of a bench, I don't think this is a big problem.

Usually when I see a series of images like this, they're just a bunch of cliches. But I didn't feel that way about a single one of these images. Your model was sultry, and I really the angles of your shots. The crop just above the lips in No. 5 is just spot-on for me. While I respect Greg's opinion, I disagree with him on the leg placement, and I'm ambivalent about the trash can. I actually really like the legs the way they are, it does look like an upskirt shot but to me, that's the point of this image and the angle of the shot.
Totally voting for you here! Great job!

Wonderful images of a lovely model, Alexander! I love the 3rd image a lot and a slight flare works really well there. Trash can? What trash can? The post of the last image is intriguing and I enjoy that, as well. If I were you, I would make her skin in the lower section somehow a tad “smoother” but it is excellent the way it is. You did really well capturing those images
