Here are some of the ones I have edited. Don't be shy on the comments to tell me how crappy I did.

I am no expert. :)

Nothing crappy about them, the posing is ok and the atmosphere is nice,
If I am to critique one thing, it would be the lighting,
The lighting is so flat that drags the picture to an average point and shoot,
Using some flashes off camera will add allot.
my 2 cents, keep up the good work,
Cheers,

I like them. My only thoughts were print sizes. I didn't "measure" them obviously, but I couldn't help but wonder if they want prints if they will be able to get them easily?

karmat - Are you talking about the crop?

AmeedEl-Ghoul - I wish I had any type of lighting gear. I am just a poor little college student with no money.

skip - Thanks! I worked hard on them! :)

what i typically do in situations like this is print them with at least a .75" border on the shortest side. it might leave a lot of white space on the long side, but they can deal with that using a custom mat, if it matters. oddly enough, i've been having that come up quite a bit lately, just due to compositions.

Oh and as of right now they did not want prints. They just wanted something that they can have on their online portfolio. (background for computer, Facebook, etc..)

However, I will if they want print have to make sure that they can make good prints.

Any suggestions on how to do that easily?

mbrutus2009 We all started like this buddy, no one had all the money needed from the beginning :)
You can Start low and build your gears up from there, I got my first professional flash after I started lighting by 2 years ;)
You can always start with a single used or new Vivitar 285HV for example, trigger it remotely with a chepo Ebay trigger, when you make some money out of your photography, add another one, you can drop in a reflector and use it as a third source of light and so on. If searched carefully, you can get couple of flashes, two tripods with umbrellas, and a chepo ebay wireless trigger for less than $150-$200. Then make your way up from there. You have the talent and the potentials. Keep up buddy. Cheers,
