Bruce I'm going to be a critic here...
I think she looks awkward and uncomfortable because of the way she
is clutching the towel.. The idea and the overall pose and light are nice, but that she is making a fist to hold the towel looks forced and
detracts.

Much appreciated, Walt.

I agree that her pose was more "posed" in the last one. By this point,
we had been working for an hour and a half with several wardrobe
changes and our collective comfort level was excellent. (She had
brought a robe for modesty but chucked that and chose to wander around
naked instead.)

I will say that, honestly, I didn't expect as many usable shots --
keepers even -- as I have seen from this shoot. It was her first time
posing nude and my first time shooting same, so I expected (and got) a
lot of awkward, fumbling, and throw-away shots. Many of the
it-seemed-like-a-good-idea-at-the-time variety. ;-)

But it was entirely necessary of course to build upon. Next shoot
should go much better.

I agree with Attila. The pose looks really natural -- which was the only nit
I could pick with the last shot you posted of her. She seems just a tad less
rigid in this one.

The lighting, of course, is predictably nice. :)

Thank you very much, Attila.

Cup was a happy accident! Until your comment I hadn't noticed the
compositional symmetry of that. Thanks for pointing it out.

Posting inspired by Frank's French Pressed, this morning coffee image

Comments welcome.

Very nice soft light. I also like her pose. The form of the coffee cup
works well, good choice!
