Well, my mind is very confuse about portraits. And I think my camera don't help me on them, because being a fixed lense don't allow-me to manipulate the DOF has I would like. Bu stop complaining... And present pictures :)
The first one is a litle girl that I saw in a wedding cerimoni (of the two other shots). I ask her to take a picture and she posed for me. The other two are from the weddig itself. My best friend marrige. I didn't try much portraits till know. Is it acceptable in a portrait to have a centered subject? Is it acceptable to don't have a very blurred background? So give me your oppinion about the portraits and elucidate me if you can. Tanks a million.

You really captured some special moments at the wedding. I love the portrait of the child...wonder how it might look if you cropped in closer on the sides? The middle shot is beautiful...you might crop out the boy on the left side, and some on the top to bring us closer to them. The last one...you can see the joy in her face. It's unfortunate that the white veil is so blown out. That one would be great for their wedding album. Have you adjusted it much in post processing? Overall, those are very nice. :o)

The original photo was even brighter. I have ajust the curves to reduce the brightness and excess of whitness.

I think that wedding photos -- or any event for that matter -- should be candid. So I can see how the term "false looking" can is applicable. That said, I think your second and third photos are certainly candid, and effective.
I know you've asked for specific feedback on these photos, but let me just suggest something that am sure many of us: leaf through Vougue or any other source with great portraits.
