What was the reasoning for these shots? I like the second shot, but IMO her facial expression doesn't match the mood of the photo, they are bright and happy photos and her face is not bright and happy lol

I like the first one.

I'm not a fan of crotch shots and having her hand positioned to hide it even more only adds to its obviousness. I would have moved a few feet further away from the path to remove it from view.

I like the lines on #2, but the blown corner are not my cup of tea. It acts as a magnet for me.

Did you think of shooting so you could see farther down the road behind her? This would eliminate the distracting bushes directly behind her. Depending on the road, a shot of her farther back with the road leading the eye into the frame to where she would be sitting could have made a nice composition.

There is a severe problem with the lighting on this, in the first you have not overpowered the sun enough to get rid of the shadow that comes down over her face to just below her eyes giving her an angry mask. More light is needed which would also add a bit of color back into the sky but would still keep the highlihgt on the right side (an effect I suspect you wanted in the shot). It takes a powerful light source to get that kind of light during the day. It's also tough to really see the focus when shooting into the light like this, but it looks like her eyes are just out of focus in these. Something to be aware of on the next shoot.

these shots were taken because I was bored and wanted to play with my new flash. These were my first pictures with it. i told my gf to grab an old prom dress and we were going to take pics. the highlighted corner was done on purpose because that was the look i wanted.

i would of loved to have more room on the road, But both sides were swamp so i didnt have much space to move. lol

I have to say, I'm not a fan of your chair either lol.
