Nice set Kristal; my only thoughts are: (1) I don't like the wooden ??? behind her head in #1; it really seems to mess up the background, and (2) I think a vertial orientation and pose where either the tattoo is more visible or not visible. As-is, it's somewhat of a distraction.

Just my $00.02 worth - your mileage may vary.

Of this set, imo, #5 is the best and really terrific. - great composition, natural pose and smile, good color. She has the problem that in a full-on, straight-on smile (in #1), her chin looks full. In other poses, see 3 & 5, she looks older elegant and quite lovely.

#2 is quite nice but the framing is off. Too much space at the top and her skin areas are much too bright.
I would burn those down, crop it, and make the logo MUCH smaller.

Thanks for the comments.

tirediron: I know what you mena about the background in 1 - I dont know how I didn't see that while framing my shot. I couldnt decide if it was passable or not after the fact...


The_Traveler: Yes, she is a bit bright in 2. These were quick edits on my laptop, and the skin will be recoverable. Thanks for the heads up ;)
 
Don't care for any of these... I'll mainly comment on #1, but in general, I'd recommend a good book on posing. #1 looks kinda soft to me on my monitor, and the composition is very square and static. The processing is lacking pop, etc.
 
The one overall think that I noticed was the posing. #1 is too straight on, #2 has her body straight on and she'd looking off frame.
The last one is much better IMO. That slight head tilt gives her a much more feminine pose, although that pose causes her shoulders to look bigger than necessary.
 
i never got into grad photography. is there okay money in them? what's the price range in them? i do weddings mostly.

Have you considered starting a new thread with this question rather than asking a complex question at the bottom of a days old thread and perhaps derailing it from the OP's purpose?
 
I like them, but my only critique is that you seemed to focus on the nails and not the eyes in one, which really detracts from the photo. Granted, i am not qualified to give comments on posing and such, but aesthetically i like them.

Regards,
Jake
