Nice shot, bra strap notwithstanding!

I'll see what kind of ideas occur to me in that vein tomorrow.

This was not part of a formal portrait shoot, but here's an idea for untraditional views, and yes the bra strap is unfortunate...

That's exactly the kind of thing I had in mind. As I'm imagining it, I'm trying to make the room an almost-equal partner in the shoot. It may be a bit early in my development to start angling for art, but I really hate to blow an opportunity to create something that's could set me apart. Also, sooner or later, I'm going to have to develop a discernible style -- for better or worse. I have an "ideal" to shoot for now. I just need to figure out how to achieve it, and I'm never going to do that unless I'm taking pictures. And taking pictures of birds and butterflies ain't gonna get me there, either.

Don't be afraid to go for detail shots, you don't need all of the model in every shot. Juxtapose her face, or even her shoulder against something interesting in the background. Also don't be afraid to do a shot of something interesting in the room, with her being an out of focus element in the picture.
