For lighting it is a nice start I might probably add a little more light to highlight her face or some back light to highlight them a little more, though without an environment it is hard to determine if more or less light is needed, like are they in their bedroom or a sleazy hotel? are they an exhibitionist couple in the park at night or a alley behind the club?
As for the pose, what are you aiming for? realism or something else? realistically the guy wouldn't be able to do much, one pump and she would most likely fall backwards, maybe having his hands on her shoulders will stop that though you would have to change the angle of the shot, though it is porn so people are willing to suspend disbelief or make exceptions. Also his pinky finger on his right hand is clipping into her so just be careful with that.
Though I do like how her expression is, nice looking model.

What's your lighting setup. can we see a Screenshot
I love his beard. how did you do that. I could totally see him in some type of cyberpunk game. Also, nice clean render man.

I’ve tried several methods, including:
-Look at Me (which helps considerably in at least setting up a plenty accurate reference point)
-Or rigging a Cam (just outside) the surface of the pupil and lining it up with an Object (or another character eye opposite), well before ever implementing her in a scene. Then adjusting her view using neck/head/eyes within any scene.
Depending on the angle she might need, one of the eyes is often a little off. And I cannot for the life of me figure out why, nor a way around it. Only solution is to manually make the adjustment as you did above - which is a gigantic pain in the ass to even identify as accurate.
But the greater purpose of my post was to compliment your work - not question it ; )

Thanks! Much appreciated. His beard is just CC Beard Boss.
Trying to go for an amateur-ish face cropped out sort of thing because I've always liked those types of pics. Kinda undecided if I like it or not though.

Holly hell - 6h30?! I am also on a GTX 1060, tend to go with 500its. And I can generally get away with a 30min render (w/Denoiser). Some situations it goes 2hrs and the resulting quality is crap. Generally, there's a window involved when that happens.Here is a no postwork picture except a slight denoising, as it seems that I "just postworked, painting over a bad render" (I caricature a little) my last artwork which was intended to look like a movie poster btw (inspired by Kompromat) and to be the main screen of my maybecomingoneday game.

I feel your pain. I also have a GTX 1060 (3Gb) in my craptop. For the pic above, 1500 iterations - CPU only -> rendering time 6h30.
But i've been told that hardware doesn't matter....
Can any of the Pros here identify from that image above what may have cost him so much rendering time? Anything most obvious that would have? Or is it all just a problem, collectively? Any recommendations to help alleviate the strain?
-Beautiful shot, btw. She may have been worthy ; )

I would agree that's a very nice intentional crop. And that yes, sometimes that type of framing choice can actually enhance the image quite provocatively. It may be that we are then subconsciously led to feed on the rest of her body (without US being seen). Or it may be that we don't quite know what her face thinks of things... so that can be plenty fetching from a curiosity perspective. Yeah?

Cpu rendering is slow...Really fucking slow. i had a 3gb 1060 before i got the 12gb 3060 and getting any image to fit in that was pretty much impossible

Nice render, like you I'm not sure it's a 'keeper', but, 5stars & a bowl of Jelly & Icecream, for using a 'Flat Footed Pose'.

Several things can affect Render times, the size of 'Off-Screen Set', ie how big the set was, compared to how much was visible in the render. Levels of detail will also affect the Render Time, the more detail the longer the time. Also the Lighting can affect Render Times, the more lights, like details will slow things down, that also goes for the 'Cityscape Background'. Several 'Fixes' for that would be

, 'Camera Cutaway' removes everything outside of the camera view, but allows lighting to be unaffected, as long as you tell it to include them. Something like a 10MB image could come out as 4 or 5MB, using 'Camera Cutaway', & is quicker than going thru the Scene 'Hiding Objects' not in view, it's also good if you want to use the 'Set' for a series of renders, saves you 'forgetting to unhide objects'.
