bearing my soul to my camera

This is ok. I like the idea of the reflection, but her back is taking up too much of the picture IMO. Also I don't like the diagonal line cutting through her head like that. There is a lot going on in this picture and my eyes are having a bit of trouble finding the main focal point. Sorry I sound so negative, but I do like the reflection idea. Maybe if it were just executed a bit differently.

I like the eye contact. There are too many blown out areas on her face, which I find a bit distrating.

This could be a nice portrait, but the man looks too uncontrasty against the very black background. Otherwise it's good.

I like the expression you caught. They look like they really love each other. I don't really care for the blown whites though. I think the lighting you used was maybe a bit too harsh. Because of the bright white background, they look like they were cut and pasted onto it. I think with softer lighting you could make a great portrait of these two people. They both have interesting faces.

I think this is a hard challenge to pull off. It seems a difficult subject to portray in a photograph, but you did it. Best of the challenge IMO. Good Luck.

I think a bit more light on his face would have improved this picture. It's a cute pose and he is an adorable model. His face just seems a bit dark, especially compared to the brightness of the background.

This is the kind of picture I was expecting to see in the challenge. It's well done, and a good subject. I particularly like the texture in her dress.

I like the contrast between the green grass and the blue sky. I think I would have liked to see the girl on the bike as a side profile going up the hill.

This is very good. I like the colors. Shame you cropped off her feet though.
