This turned out to be a really nice shoot for you. I saved this post for after viewing the other 3. You did an excellent job keeping the highlights off of her glasses. I know you said that she wanted some shots with minimal lighting, but that can make preventing harsh facial shadows very difficult. If you can talk her into another shoot, try using reflectors (there are posts here on how to make your own). They will minimize the shadows without causing you to blow-out the main lighting. All in all, I really liked the look you achieved with these. Having such an attractive model, doesn't hurt. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

haha no it don't hurt at all =) Thanks for the compliments. I had a crappy reflector made there but I wasn't expecting to be shooting with so little light. But I do like the mood it set for the whole thing, hard shadows can be cool =)
