pool shoot

This was naturally lit, from the ceiling. I wanted to catch the light in her face.

Similar to what I said in one of your other posts...the crop/composition is too loose. The model takes up 10-15% of the image. If you are trying to shoot an ad for the pool/hotel, that's great. But if the model is the subject, get closer, zoom in or crop more.

I agree, the life saving thingy is the first thing I notice in #1.
I like the one where she's looking up the best but a tighter crop or getting close would have made a world of difference. It could be my cheapo monitor at work but they look a bit cool too. Very sharp otherwise

Get in tight, up close. Show the subject, not the surroundings unless that is the subject.

I think you have to improve you composition. Start builiding your portrait from looking at the background frist.

Get closer. Good looking girl.

I like the idea of the photo's but like earlier said, get in closer and have the subject fill in more of the photo.
