a note on the pose. It seems a little strange. At first, it looks like Girl2 is supporting Girl1 to do the arch backwards rather than an embrace per se. Then the eye goes to the hand. Now the hand could be doing either of a couple of things. 1 - copping a bit of feel, 2 - holding the bodice in place. Because the bodice appears in place on the left breast, but the bodice appears to be 'slipping' for the right breast, it does lend a bit of a feeling of 'keeping things in place' for the shot...
hence the after-thought of the picture loses the immersiveness of the moment and gets you thinking about the process/mechanics of the shot...
How to alter this?
option 1 - Same hand position - in the middle of the breasts.
option 2 - hand in the same place, but with the fingers not quite extended so much. it really does look like she is pressing down firmly to keep it in place like this.
other than that, the technicals are very good.
Additionally, I was looking a bit closer and decided that visually, the shoes look ok, but I think the shot overall could have used the removal of the shoes. it might have led to a bit more of an 'intimate' feel and the feet do look a bit awkward like that... Shoes do great things for legs when the person is in just about any other pose than this. here they look like they are in the way.
