The last one has the best lighting I've seen in your portraits so far. Could have been even better with the models head tilted slightly downwards.

hey thanks

what do you mean by the best lighting, what part of the lighting is good and what exactly would be an improvement?

[Blunkka]

Well first of all I like the fact that there is a clear key light coming from the left which makes the shadows look right on the face (you know the basic three point lighting stuff). Strong light also makes the skin looks nice and soft which works especially well on women. The highlights could be slightly toned down to reduce the burning effect. I understand you may not have the possibility to add a fill light to lighten up the right side of the face (could also be done with a white reflector).

wow, thanks! that just added to my knowledge. i didnt even know about the three point lighting technique until now hehe. thanks a lot~!

[Blunkka]

I suggest you check out this serie of videos. Great information on portrait photography put really simple.

The best stuff is in the latter parts of those videos but I suggest taking time to watch them all.
