NICE!
Do you mind a few picky thoughts? Very picky.
1. Her hair poking out from under her arm (camera left)
2. That expression is so wonderful - now get rid of the hair over her right eye :P
3. I almost have nothing to say - but the boot lace and funny belly shadow
4. I got less here other than the peek of her leg at the bottom - adjust the crop?
5. She has such beautiful eyes and skin - why is there a bag under her left eye?
6. I got nothing!
Thank you for posting these, I am torn between tossing my kit in the trash and being inspired.
Cheers
Tobin

Lovely, lovely series. My fav? I would say #5. care to share some pp tips?
Thanks. With #5, it's quite simple, the shot already have a very colorful background and outfit as the base to work on. So in photoshop, I lift up the mid tone in the curve, then I duplicate the layer, then set layer blend mode to "Soft Light" then bring back opacity of the blend layer to taste Hope that helps.

Beautiful shots.
Did you use any strobes or available light?
If it is obvious in the photos, I don't see it or lack the experience to notice it.
Thanks. I did use a speedlight on camera. If the subject is facing the sun, then I don't use it, but if the subject is facing away from the sun then I do. Also, use flash as fill light when I placed the subject in shade areas. Hope the helps.
Excellent series - the only two I don't like are
#2 - the "claws" really bother me
#5 - simply don't like her expression.
The rest are very well posed and composed - having a hard time picking a favorite.
