She's very pretty, and that comes through. I wish she had left her Monroe in! A few of these have some framing issues, like #2...she's placed just a little bit too far to the short side of the frame, and #1 has a lot of extra top space, but #3 the sepia is gorgeous use of the natural sky-light and having her eyes directed toward the sky-lighting is marvelous--so marvelous that the Dutch tilt does not bother me in the least; the following one, #4 is good, and even though her hair is a bit too dark and featureless, her sexiness comes though. In general, your focal length choices are excellent, and your background control is good, and the degree of background defocus is very much to my liking in the closer-in shots.

I like the close up better. Did you try to soften the skin texture in photoshop?
I'm not usually picky about technical stuff but do watch that chromatic aberration.

They seem a bit dark as her hair has lost most of the detail. Lighting is pretty flat, a little fill flash would make for a few shadows on her face. They look a bit over saturated too.

Overall good job. They are not too dark but maybe the contrast needs a little tweak so the blacks are not as crushed. I would say take it easy on skin smoothing as it can end up looking too airbrushed. Beautiful model and I like the variety of framing. Well done.

Notice the face compared to the hand in the first one particularly, too much difference and too much processing doesn't look real. Someone viewing the photo should not be able to first thing see where you processed (or overprocessed) the image. Get good exposures and more subtle editing might get better results.

I'd check hair and clothing arrangement before taking the photos. Even going for a tousled look I'd think about the wispy strands that are noticeable, especially with dark hair against that warm golden background. Next time notice when a subject is wrapped in fabric especially with a strong design, in some places it created an odd shape that makes for a distraction (and iron it first if it's been folded). Too in the pose where she's scrunched down I would have thought about the positioning of the foot so you don't just see a couple of toes or an edge of a leg, etc. Watch with tank tops that the edge of a bra isn't showing. I do actually think the tilt works with her in that pose, but not so much with the background at that much of an angle, maybe with less showing? not sure.

The devil as the saying goes is in the details, try noticing all that before you take the picture. You seem to have good ideas and ability to pose and engage subjects, the technical aspects and details I think can make or break a potentially good photo.

Don't soften face in Photoshop. Remove the blemishes and then use frequency separation to keep skin texture.
