Beatiful lady in a simple elegant pose, nicely light. Not much you can do to improve on this! The only thing I find distracting is the purplish object between her hair and rist in the center of the shot. Is it the color of her shirt? A shirt underneath?

A beautiful model in a nicely composed shot! My only complaints have to do with the lighting. You are a touch overexposed on the highlight side. This loses the detail in her hand/wrist/arm and around her nose. You also could use a touch more lighting on the hair as simple as a reflecter above and to the shadow side. THis actually would perhaps even out the overall lighting making it easier to expose properly!

Another nearly flawless techincal shot. You obviously used natural light which is a nice touch that hardly anyone used. The only complaint I have is the colors seem just a touch dull.

Nicely posed/composed shot. I like the tone of your background. Compliments her skin tones nicely. A touch more lighting on her hair (as simple as a reflector above and to the side of her) would make this go from a good portrait to a great one!

A nearly flawless portrait shot IMHO. The only thing I could see to improve would be a slightly different background. You kind of lose her hair into the background because they are a little too close in color.

It is obvious that you put a little more thought into posing the subject in this shot. You did a pretty good job of lighting here including nice catch lights in the eyes. I think a bit of reflected fill light to fill in under the back of the chair would be benificial. Nice shot

Lovely young lady in nicely composed shot. Your lighting is a bit flat though detracting from her lovely face and making it appear flat. Very tough exposure to get with the darker skin tones and very light colored garb. Nice job of capturing the textures in the cloth.

THis shot makes me think of Chrissy Hines of the Pretenders. Very eighties feel to it. Love the matching lolipop/lipstick. I do think that your lighting is a little harsh and takes away from the shot some though.

A lovely model! Nearly flawless lighting, and classic pose make this a technically superior shot, but it is somehow lacking in something. I think a more creative pose would take this one step beyond. I do think the soft focus is a touch much here.

Nice candid looking shot with very subtle yet adequate lighting. The only thing I think would improve it greatly would be to see her beautiful eyes!
