    you've got two odd white dots on the last image. Very distracting.. I can see them on the third as well but they're not so bad in that context.

    First one is grand for what it is albeit a but typical, but if its a men's health style shot your looking you need to light him up all over. The second one is uninspired lighting and framing and he looks fairly silly to be fair.

    The 3rd and 4th are a bit miss to. Apart from the white dots and specks mentioned above, the composition just isnt right in the third one. She's not set properly in the frame whatsoever and the lighting is a bit flat and boring for what looks to be a fairly funky set, you need to be a bit more creative.

    The last one had the most potential probably, but the skin colour on her right arm is drastically different to her face and stomach and then again with her left arm. Hard to see at the time I'm sure.

    On a plus side your model is really doing well - the pose, the look, etc is all great, the colouring and lighting dont do it though. (the male model, sorry, i cant help just looking at that one lol)...The lighting is rather one sided, so monochrome may be the way to go with this to get a better effect. The male models hands seem a little different from the arms tone wise too.

    I find the eyes in all the shots are lacking some life and sparkle, the models framing/position in all pics seems wrong too...

    Pic 4 her arms are chopped off too...

    These type of studio portraits are far from easy even for experienced photographers that have decided to try their hand at it, I've seen many people work their way up and it takes many go's....
