High key - Need advice for first attempt!

[totalbeginner]

I've been reviewing some old RAW files and thought it would be nice to do something different rather than just a bog standard conversion.

I thought these images were quite fun so I tried to get a kind of high-key effect. It's kind of worked, but to be honest, I didnt' have a clue what I was doing. Any advice or C&C would be gratefully received! :)

I think they almost look more "Lomo" than High key but thats just my opinion. Saying that I like them and it looks like lots of fun was had in the process.......... just a shame that depth of field let you down in the first and the Blonde is oof.

As for high key I haven't done any of that yet so I'll be interested to see what others say and what pointers they have.
