I like how natural these feel, your best are the first 3, your worst are 5 (harsh lighting) and 9 (not enough light) both of which seem over saturated and likely over processed. 7 is way blown out.

Otherwise some of the editing choices are still questionable but not necessarily bad. Composition is good all around.

I like #5. I think think the processing technique is cool. Cartoonish almost.

I agree that 1-4 are the best, with numbers 1 and 4 being my favorites.

The branch cutting across the forehead above the eyes (#6) drives me crazy, but I could ALMOST tolerate it if the leaf wasn't also cutting into her eye. :/

I'd reprocess #8, it looks like a cool location with lots of color, but for some reason you sucked all the life out of the picture.

Overall, good pictures.

Shots 4,5,and 8 are my faves. I like the cartoon-like look of the young man with the blue shirt--that looks very cool. You have some nice stuff mixed in here with a couple that don't work very well (6 and 9). SHot #3 seems to have too much top space and an awkward crop at the knee zone, which looks unsettling. Overall though, your work seems to indicate that you have some potential as a people photographer. Your processing seems good. You have good, attractive subjects.

On 8 the green for me was very distracting i always was comfortable to look in front of the subject even if it were pulled down so i chosen that process also the jeans were blue and shirt red, on 9 i was aiming for low key so i guess i didn't process it very well for that.
On 6 yes that branch isn't that good at all but for me it was a spot on moment and yes i wished it was more up so that her eyes would be more clear and also wished that i didn't cut her arm in that way but i like the feel of it so i will keep it a little longer.
Thank you, more thoughts on those i would be glad.
