Yep it's a challenge, all right. Good work here, natural colours and good sharpness. A much more diffuse light than in previous shots of your daughters, you must've done something to get that?
Keep experimenting with the position of your lights, here the light source seems to be almost directly in front of your subject's face; you can get more of the 3D effect by positioning it other ways.
Mind you, I'm back behind the tungsten lights this weekend if I can; plenty more to learn!

All I can say is that I think this is a really good attempt at studio. I was struggling the other day just using natural light! I can only imagine how difficult this setup would be.

Metering is good and there is good separation between the subject and backdrop. Next time try raising your main light directly overhead which will produce harder shadows under the nose and chin. I think this type of lighting effect would suit your subjects pose and props. Speaking of props, may be try a shot without the mouth guard.
Well done.
Regards, Kath
