Nice work overall.

I think the lighting boarders on too dark, but you have made it work. I'm not sure the pose the model is in is very flattering for her. I would be interested to see more work with this model in varying poses. The garage wall you used makes this feel very organic and spontaneous. Maybe that's why I'm not a fan of the pose. It feels casual, but the pose destroys any illusion of spontaneity.

Post Production: I'm not a fan of the boarders, but that's my own hang up.

I like the moody lighting, the colours and the plywood background.

I agree that the pose seems a little forced. If you're determined to use the window frame (it is an interesting element) you might try putting the model behind it.

I would lose the window frame completely and explore the possibilities of just posing the model.

I like the setting and the lighting. The frame is kind of interesting....if I were you i would try different poses with it. Being a female myself, I never want a picture where my body is directly facing the camera. In the first pose she is straight ahead. See how this position makes her appear wider? She has a great figure, but this pose is not flattering to her. In the next pose, her body is turned just a little and that looks much better, but her arms look funny. Almost a painful pose. She looks very uncomfortable. I think that the clothes are cute, but I would x the shoes. Either go barefoot or get a higher heal that shows more of the foot.
