She should be able to hold pretty still, provided she's not liquored up when she arrives. I don't have a whole lot of room to open up the aperture, unfortunately. The only somewhat fast lens I have at the moment is a 135mm prime -- and the room just isn't big enough to get much use out of it. But, I'm going to figure out a way to put it to work ... maybe on some outdoor shots, too. The guy has a zebra-striped Land Rover I'm going to try to work into the shoot.

Thanks again for the guidance!

Thanks, William. Those were fairly short exposures. In aperture priority with an auto-ISO of 1600, the shutter speed set at 1/50. Didn't even think about using the tripod, but that would obviously be a good idea. Thanks for mentioning it!

That would put you in the 1/15 to 1/8 second at ISO 400. Providing the model can hold still for that long (which means fairly uncomplicated posing), this is doable. If you can open up a stop or so you will probably find you like your results more.
