Chaos of Outdoors

I've decided to forgo a studio and embrace the chaos and serendipity of outdoor portraiture.
Here are some unretouched images from my last shoot.

Nicely done lighting & exposure. These feel to me like they should be square crops; the landscape seems a bit too much empty space.

Very well done. The landscape does leave it a little empty, but it still works.

my clients usually print them 8x10 for casting purposes. a slightly more squarish than 8x10 but not quite 1x1 might work as it would leave space for the name and agency below.
I'm honestly gonna get my mitts on a 105mm f/1.4 as soon as Nikon lets me have one.

It's probably unnecessary to say or even inappropriate but she is a totally beautiful woman.

I think the overhead light doesn't do her justice and her skin tones are different from picture to picture but #3 is totally over the top great.
