What a great shoot! This sure beats the typical boring images you typically see. I LOVE the first one where it shows how much personality she has. There are just too many great ones to comment on a specific one, but the one thing on #6 I'd point out is that tree growing out of her head. Just wondering if there was one where she was standing a little more to camera right, or if the background was a little more OOF. Just a nik pik.
What a fun shoot (no pun)!
GREAT work!

Thanks, I appreciate it. That first shot is really about who she is, and it wasn't really in line with the concept I was shooting -- but like you, I really liked it so I had to include it. Same with the one with her splashing the water. As for No. 6, that was a good point. We really goofed and didn't have bug spray and she was getting hammered by mosquitoes so I was really rushed in getting this shot and getting her out of this mud hole. I really would have preferred to have a darker background that would have provided a nice contrast to her, and I think I had it to her right (camera left) but I didn't take my time and work it. When the picture is a larger, I think the difference in the background being OOF becomes more apparent, and so that BG stuff didn't bother me when I was editing it. But I do agree with you.
You did a great job! I love 3,4,6,7 and 9. She has the kind of gaze which almost stops you in your tracks, in a kind of forget-what-you're-doing-drive-off-the-road kind of way.
