You guys are funny....don't sugarcoat it...but you know Pfiltz you can dish it out pretty good sometimes to.
For me, I think the shots are ok and very pretty girls, not feeling the hat in two though.
I prefer more contrast in the lighting with a little more shadow for adding depth to the features.
*Edit - now I see the first two. I quite like #2, but maybe that is just because I am not sophisticated enough to see how cliche it is. #1 is very well lit, so it seems to me mission accomplished.
Nice framing of the face with the hat and hair in #2.
Still, it seems a little incomplete when you cut at the elbow, don't show the bottom of the blouse and show a tiny slice of the belt. A portrait crop comes to mind - show less of the wall, more of the top of the hat.

I guess #1 shows decent control of lighting, but damn that's a lot of work for such a boring shot.
Think that covers image #1.
Image #2 is a nice face shot but maybe some more dramatic lighting or something? I could see this one being the strongest.
Image #3 looks like a cliche senior portrait
Gorgeous girl. She could use some more dynamic fashion and some crazy lighting/posing. Really spice her up. Feel these bore me and don't go out of the box for something as diverse and fast-pace as fashion.
