Great shot! Beautiful model and the backgound suits the bikini. (It always seems a little strange to see a girl in a bikini and posed nowhere near water or even a water theme.)

I Like The model,I Like The Shot,However Everyone Seems To Be Doing That Same ,Lets Face The camera And Pull Down On The Suite Shot.I"m Just As Guilty Some Times.
I'd Like to see Some Variations.Lets See Her Having Fun, Splashing,In Three Demention.Laughing,Etc.

I agree...but since I haven't got the experience many on this site has, I would have to guess that the action shots would occur after these still shots? I am also tired of models pulling on bikini straps. Some action would be great to see...but much more difficult to pull off.

I have read that a trend in wedding photography is that after the formal photos are completed, the bride wants to put her white dress through all sorts of distress and have great photos of it. IE: jumping into pools, wading streams, etc. By waiting ater the formal shots, the action shots can be taken.

The overall Silver theme is great. Very rich looking in appeal.
As with the pose..(since a few others have brought it up), I agree that the "Pulling" thing is old, but as you may know, Plenty of Media heads what traditional stuff that will sell the product...It does take time to change the what "Traditional" means. It took Wedding Photography a good 10 years to where the PJ type of photography is now very popular..But, there are still many many Weddings shot very traditionally.

It always a good idea to shoot what is popular, and to shoot your own ideas and offer both..

I am enjoying all these bikini photos,

After You Have Done The Regular Poses And Are Happy With Them,That is When You Get The Model Wet.And Of Course You Want her to Know That In Advance of the Shoot.No Doubt Certin Poses Always Sell.However Being An Inovator,Always Showing Additional Ideas,Will Keep You In The Market.Dont Let The Competition Be the One To Do It.Again I can Remind You go to petergowland.com He Is in His 80s And still in Demand.look At His Work History,The Reason?Inovation.Still The Greatest Pin up Photographer that Ever Lived!
