Rob,
You don't say how you are metering, or what you are shooting.
Your gear and your basic settings sound correct, but proper exposure is often best achieved with a high quality meter, used well and often, especially shooting with a model.
Your placement of your subject in relation to primary light source is also critical.
Another thought might be the quality of your photo finishing.
Overcompensating more than you are could just lead to underexposure.
This image of Vancouver model was shot in the bathroom of my hotel room, with a single Vivitar 283 bounced. Seat of the pants guerrilla photography, based entirely on the good will of the Vivitar's sensor.
Just lucky...;o)
