Close-Up Headshots C&C requested

[DGMPhotography]

Hello there:

So here are some close ups I did of Savannah. I like them, but I only want to use one or two, and would love to hear your thoughts on them.

My favorite is #3

1)
Not sure what I think.

2)
I like the composition here, but the hair in this case (the single strands) were a little distracting. I'll have to shop them out.

3)

Thanks!

Use one or two for what? Not sure the hair in the face works on any of them, but may depend on what you are using them for.

#2 is easy fav for me, #3 looks king of sad and #1 too much hair in the way for me

What is the intended use? None of them are suitable for portfolio or professional work.

The colours look muddy, her skin unnaturally matt and flat, the lighting is not very flattering and it seems as though your retouching needs to be pulled back a lot. In all honesty I agree with the chap above.

#3 looks like a Police mug shot IMO.I can't see that one used for anything.I think a reshoot would be better but fix the hair first.

I'm afraid I agree with everyone except funwitha7d.

She appears to be a pretty girl but you're just not doing her justice. The hair is covering the part of the photo we're supposed to be looking at.

Police mug shot? I dunno........I think the police would want a better picture where you can actually see her face.

Use one or two for what purpose?

It looks as if you'll have to NOT use one of them.

Because there are three of them.

I dunno D...these are on the margin, man.

First off.... I didn't do any retouching so idk how I would pull back on that??

Thanks for the feedback yall.. looks like these are going nowhere xD

But I still think they're interesting looking.

Ok, what were you thinking about using them for? I asked that long ago on a different post of yours and you did not answer. Now I'm just curious again.

I guess they can be used as Facebook photos to use as a snapshot kinda aesthetic to make it seem like you're having a ton of fun.

Most of the time I reply to constructive feedback. If I didn't respond to you, I either didn't see it, or your feedback was counterproductive. In either case, my bad.

Use, as in, put on my Facebook page. I probably wouldn't add this one to my site. It's nowhere near perfect enough.

No problem and thanks for the reply. It was the same thing. You had mentioned using the photos (I believe it was a model sitting in a hallway with her back against the wall) so I asked the same question.

Thanks again for following up.
