Strong shadows like these?

This is a photo I took in my portrait class of our model. Nice strong shadows, but again, she's pretty red. I just took this snapshot so I could finish the portrait at home, used my Canon PoswerShot S30. I don't know what kind of lighting is used in the studio where I take classes, I don't think the bulbs are anything fancy.

Are these the kind of strong shadows necessary to get good form?

thanks again,

Joan
