you have done a nice job with the deep etch lighting ........ but would like to have seen a bit more modeling rather than a flat overall look...... nice studio work

big pix,
what do you mean by flat overall look? the "deep etch" lighting was really just a blown out studio background, so i can't take credit for that! MattyO

1 and 2 for me Matty.
I'm not sure on the 3rd one, perhaps that should be the 1st in the series, the greet at the door with the package. The 4th I don't like the extra shadow area the cap has given her on her left eye. It is more noticeable on this photo over the others.
the lighting you have used is all defused or bonced with no direction or very little...... no hard light...... one main light coming from the side and just a tad in front of the model, and aimed at the subject, would add to the modeling. This could also be bonced off a white flat or directional, and power ajusted to match the rest of your setup....... overall the lighting is good and the images will look good on a brochure or poster......

Nice work Matty, you really have jumped into this style. Like the high contrast look and the props, one tiny nitpick which I doubt you had much control over is I don't think the boots work, maybe something like a pair of undone Kodiak boots would match better?
I love the pose in the last one but she looks slightly overexposed. If she had a bit more contrast from the background i think it would work so much better. But that's just nitpicking. I think it's a great series.
Steve.
