Need C&C. Do you think these pics are trashy.

[furfangos]

Not trashy but definately not sensual either. I'd stay away from the special effects and show off the models body in a way that makes ones mind wonder while you leave just the right areas exposed. The audiance that you are aiming to please has a lot to do with what a picture will be considered as....trashy or not. Do you like the pictures? Take a time out and look at them again...see if you would change something.

Not sure about the trashy part, but less overt approach may be more effective. Are the 2nd and 3rd pictures the same or very similar? Anyway, what is the PP done to get the effect? Finally, the last picture seems a little busy to me.

The two pictures are the same.
I ended up posting the same picture twice on accident.

The PP effect is a motion blur accomplished by using Photoshop.

After reading again all the posts, I have one more thought that is not really C&C on the images as such, but that you might find useful.

Once you are familiar with all the technical aspects of doing a shoot, the images you'll create will either be a reflection of what you want to achieve, or you have been paid to achieve. In either case you'll need to wonder if the resulting product is what you aim for. If it is, good for you; if it isn't, you need to change direction because at the end of the day, it does not matter what others think if you are not happy with yourself first. Sorry to get philosophical on you

I like the second shot except for the crotch. A more seductive post and this could be a slick ad for wheels.

... note that i am not "trashing" your photos (pun intended). and for the calendar you describe, the subject matter is probably on the mark. i can see now how your shots fit into the context of the product and the market for the product.

... hope you get a photo credit on the calendar, and some $$ would also be nice, eh.

Looking at these I can hear 60 cents latest pounding out the car stereo.

My candid opinion: trashy.
