Sheer

This series is my first ever attempt at both using a model and shooting nudes. I have always wanted to try this form of photography, but have never had the opportunity to work with a model before (and as an amateur was not able to afford to hire one). I finally had an opportunity to do this when one of my best friends, who happens to be very comfortable with her body, was visiting last month to help celebrate my newly purchased home (first time home-buyer...yay!). In fact, the pictures were all taken in my new home. The only lighting used was the available light (which was minimal), so some of the images are a bit on the grainy side.

At any rate, as I said this is my first attempt so any suggestions, comments, criticisms and/or compliments would be much appreciated

As the model is a very good friend I was a little hesitant to put these pictures online, but she was ok with it so I decided to go ahead and post them. That being said, please do not use these images without explicit permission.

These shots were taken with my Nikon D40x, using available light (at night). 8000 ISO.
