cute, simple expression. I'd usually like to see a little more with children because they have such a wide range of expressions. Depth of field is nice.

Oh boy. These kind of shots really do nothing for me. It seems just there for the sake of attention as opposed to saying something about the model. So trying to put aside my bias, some places that could have been inproved... lighting. It seems brightest on her stomach and even blown out on her arm. I'd like to see more light and attention on her face. The pose is really unnatural. There are better ways to do implied nudity, like perhaps laying on her stomach. The lipstick print seems completely unnecessary unless this is some sort of commentary on lesbianism, in which case the person who put it there should be in the photo as well. If it's a tattoo... well then I would have cloned it out.

Interesting... like the Lady of Shallot or Ophelia kind of thing. This is really cool! I always wanted to do a shoot like this! I like the processing, like an old photo, adds to the whole theme. The only thing that might have added to this is perhaps some greenery like vines or lily pads or flowers. Might have done a little more to hide the bottom of the swimming pool too and give it more of a pond or lake feel.

hmmm... interesting profile. Seems a little too disconnected to me but perhaps that was the aim. The tones and contrast are great.

Mmm! Yum!

Very cute expression! Shame it's a bit dark on the face, perhaps you could have selectively brightened him a bit so as not to blow out the higlights too much in the back? Nice job on the eyes!

Portrait from the parlour

Eee! lol. Nice dof. It's hard to see this as a portrait though, perhaps I'm just in the "mammal box" or "macro box" on this one as far as it being a portrait is concerned. I like the composition and the choice of b/w.

The high key is way too much for me on this. The whole thing is just very washed out with the clearest part being least important, her top.

Good use of DOF for what could have been a clutered portrait. He seems a bit pouty but still very cute photo.

There is something really likeable about this portrait. The focus seems a bit off and the whole thing seems really orange but it is engaging. I wonder what it is framing the photo?

Ah! Adorable! lol. The expression is priceless. His lips are so red it looks like he was drinkin koolaid or something! lol. Might have brought the crop out a little further from his eye but other than that, great!
