Ok, Bobby... here is my take on the set:
(1) Possibly the best of the set. May seem silly, but my favorite part of this is the fact that her forearm is in line with the light pattern in the background. Shows exceptional attention to detail. May have liked to see more space camera right rather than a square crop, but stands brilliantly as is.
(2) Possibly my least favorite of the set. Her hair is a mess as is her shirt. Cliche pose and dated background makes this look like an "outtake" that should have not been even shown here.
(3) Quite nice. My eyes are suggesting that the color balance is a bit off...perhaps too cyan or green. Again, a wider crop camera right may have helped - I suggest you get away from square crops from time to time as the image dictates.
(4) Really nice. Perhaps a bit too hot on the earring, but that is a nit-pic. I really like this one.
(5) Just meh. Close crop for no apparent reason. Dead eyes even though I see a hint of a catch-light. Not bad, not great...
(6) Not a fan of the pose (cliche hand position and cut off hand). Hair is a train wreck and background looks like a junior high school yearbook.
(7) Good. I like this one. I would play around with the crop, as it looks a bit awkward cut thru her upper arm. Nice as is, though.
(8) This one is *almost* epic. Perfect pose and crop. The pearls that separate as they approach her hair destroys this one for me. Also, her lipstick needs to be fresh and bright. Looks as if she has been wearing it all day (faded and cracks in her lips). Perhaps some PS could help.
(9) Exactly like (5). Background way too bright.
(10) I see what you were going for, but the pose is a bit too contrived for the lighting. Too hot on her left upper arm and that black mass is distracting. Could work with a much better lighting setup.
(11) Love this one. Light, exposure and PP is spot on. Brilliant colors.
(12) Just ok, probably wouldn't include in the set. Awkward hand position, lack of attention to detail (hair, bright spot on wood, etc) take away from the image. Also, she is looking *barely* off camera. Either in camera or more away would have saved this image.
(13) Great! Maybe even better than (11).
(14) ACK! Just no. Terribly contrived pose, cliche hand position and very unflattering lighting / outfit / background. She looks utterly bored out of her mind.
(15) Not feeling this one at all. Her expression kills it. Like she is thinking, "Smile? Like this?" Necklace off center, armpit folds, non-complimentary background color, etc.
(16) Just find no purpose in the pose, prop (eye-wear), background paper flames (?)
Anyway, sorry if a bit harsh. Some amazing images here that should have been shown without the others IMO.
