She would have helped me with this in a heartbeat... perhaps not so much of it... But... *rolleyes*
This was probably my most frustrating shoot ever. I should have put the model on a bed or something higher than the floor. *sigh* As it was, my arm was shaking from holding myself up so long, and I couldn't hold still enough for even this DOF... had the model click the remote shutter while I focused on holding the camera steady.
If I'd put her up higher, I could have used a tripod instead of handholding... and I could have had deeper DOF with all in focus.
Oh well... live and learn.

Post: @ DomD, thanks for your comment. I did try the books thing... but couldn't get the downward angle right. I need a beanbag, I suppose.
