Note to John... "The AO image was created by adding an ao node to the face and body texture of aiko, and turning ao for the main white light." As mentioned by others above, you should use an IBL light and also, there's no need to add AO nodes to the materials. Just enable it on the light and it's calculated for the entire scene.
