I posted my first 2 professional paid portrait sessions on a private board that my friends (yeah, right) use, and this was the only reply:
the focus isn't sharp at all
the lighting isn't proper (too many shadows)
the colors are bland ...
looks like a basic school picture ... no wow factor
This was for these two sessions:

Yes, you've seen these before, but are they really that bad? This has shaken my confidence so much I can't even tell you how much I just want to chuck this whole business. I know, I know, if I can't take criticism, I shouldn't be in this business in the first place...
