Seems like the subject's inserting eye drops of light for contact lenses.
I think the half circle ufo, at the top could be removed, or it might lead to the other ufo's of light landing in the eye. An interesting profile with good shadows.

Could be just for me..
Kind of unusual to not see a dividing wall between the studio and reception area.

More lareger prints are easier to see on the walls then those that appear to be like thumbnail size. just my opinion, tryig to be helpful.

ADDED: For the best tips, visit other highly successful studios that shoot the type of pictures you do. I checked out Kent Smith Photography last year. He shoots H.S. Seniors and built up amazing outdoor/indoor studio near Columbus-OH. I took pictures of it.

I really think this is excellent, combining the colorful grafitti with a silhouette against the sky. Riminds me of the ET movie riding a bicycle silhouetted against the sky, But combined with the color, makes it even better. Our Lakewood skatepark has no grafitti at all.

I'd like to see the camera angle just a little more to the right and lower. To get body from waist up against the sky, and just a slight touch of spotlight on his skateboard-only by an assistent. A Lower angle would make him higher in the air, too. Yes flash, but only to emphasize the skateboard.

I agree with the square crop suggestion below. If you crop out just to the right of the umbrella, it would bring her all important, eyes into the "thirds".

I'd love to see it with some clip-on LED flashlight or a strobe at very low-intensity, lighting the inside of the umbrella. This would add an interesting effect and bring her hair out from the similar dark colors of the umbrella. Just an idea.

Must've been a bright day for 1/4000th, 1/125 or 1/60th with a remote fill-flash from the top-right and bouced off a reflector on the left, may have helped. I like the Red-on-black and background is okay as long as the water horizon is level.

Wow, "Photographically speaking", you've become quite a relentless bug killer since I first emailed you a few years ago. You shoot them with digital kindness. I assume none are harmed unless they become a real pest, like compete for your dinner.
