What they all said. Hope to see a part III.
Outstanding pictures and model. Keep up the good work. I'm very impressed with her hair down to her knees and for a change no tattoo's
Reno,
Please accept this is a wonderful set for first nudes, but since everyone else is just into "oohhs & aahhs" may I give my opinions for future improvements. The model is exquisite, no need for more, but #1 would have benefited from some fill light on her face or in PP. Would also had brought out more detail in her hair, the second most important emphasis in the photos. Also remove that stray twig on right. #2 have never been a fan of cutting off feet or hands at the ankle or wrist. Some photos necessary mid-thigh but never below the knee. #3 again would have benefited from fill or lightening face in PP. And #4 cries out to be a vertical shot. I offer this as constructive comments as UHH is a photography discussion site.

With so many nice comments to my first four pictures I feel encouraged to post more of the same shoot. Please keep in mind that those are the only photos of this genre I have ever taken. In other words I'm an amateur. The lady is no model, just a good friend, and attractive female, who feels comfortable enough with me to take the pictures.
She is an absolutely gorgeous lady and you have done her proud
"I was wondering whether you directed her in the poses, or if she just naturally knew what to do?" I had to suggest very little, since the lady just intuitively moved into a pose I liked. I have done shoots, with my wife, who I believe is very photogenic, and noticed the same thing, she moves effortlessly into a pose that makes her look good. I found the same with other ladies I shot, with close on. :-) Most be genetic!

Stardust: "1 would have benefited from some fill light on her face or in PP." Agreed!
Would also had brought out more detail in her hair." I'm not sure how I could have done that. The camera was low resolution, so there was not much detail to sharpen.
"Also remove that stray twig on right." Good point!
#2 "have never been a fan of cutting off feet or hands at the ankle or wrist. Some photos necessary mid-thigh but never below the knee." That may be subjective. I liked them better cropped.
#3 "again would have benefited from fill or lightening face in PP." Agreed.
And #4 cries out to be a vertical shot. I offer this as constructive comments as UHH is a photography discussion site.
I cropped the picture because I wanted to put more focus on the lady, rather than the scenery. But, you may be right.
Thank you for the feedback, it is much appreciated.

Thank you, that was my intention.
"She seems like a really beautiful person, and that shines through!"
Absolutely a very classy lady, bright, with a gregarious personality. Initially I was more apprehensive about the shoot than she was. Her very natural way of being nude relaxed me after a while.
On a personal note, in my younger days I was somewhat of a ladies man and had some beautiful ladies in my chambers. There was never one, who knew she looked good, who had any hesitation to have me take some nude pictures. Usually with a Polaroid camera.:-) The morality of nudity appears to correlate with self perception.
