I am doing some work for a porn company, these are some of the fetish images. They are less hardcore than what the company is using, just want some feedback from this first set. There will be a second set up some time on Monday,

Hmm - don't know what the company's looking for... And especially what the pics are used for (magazine, DVD-Cover, etc.).
I like the Eros1 most - the others look kind of taken for a photostory...

Are there any more Details available?

yeah, the more "converntional" images I took for them are more likely to be used. I snuck some artsy shots in, I haven't done enough fetish yes so I grabbed the chance to do some. They provided the model of course, the  photographer who subcontracted with me said he wanted "pretty" shots, so I think he wants a more artsy look. I will know more once he tells me what sells well.
It is nice cause I get paid a small amount, but can still use the images for myself too.
I will be putting up a differant, more normal? if you can use that word, set of shots on Sunday or Monday.
Any suggestions on the shots already up, I just pointed my strobe at the ceiling and hoped no one wanted to use the back staircase.

Fetish as I understand it (in a commercial way) is always a little dark, full of shadows and dark corners where ANYTHING can happen (I know it's not always that way - just an opinion of a boring regular guy ;o) ). So I would use some different light.
A staircase in the bach or cellar or simoly a stone wall might be useful to...
Dramatic light can be added in post production as well (lol - I do it all the time since I'm too bad in lighting right in the first place).
