One of these is to be used on a billboard as a corporate image.
Which do you like best?

#3 but it would have been a bit better with the curtians not so "in-focus"

I'd pick #1 :D

Number 1 reminds of a news desk style, and being so central is a little distracting.

Number 2 gives a friendly image but the lines in the background take your eye away from the model - they're all different directions.

Number 3 has a professional, helpful style but I would re-take it without the mobile phone and possibly blur the curtains a little - digitally if not possible when taking the photo.

#2.

I think #1 is the best portrait of Mehgan, but it doesn't highlight the corporate background. She's doing something maybe job-related in #3 but I agree the curtain is distracting. In #2, the background while blurred still makes a statement that she's part of an office environment.

just my view....

In that case, let's see #4?

Seriously, number 3 for my taste. Simple background that doesn't really distract at all, but then it would depend on the business. If the idea is to show business then 1 or 2 would be better. She is a cute girl and photographs well. I like the red blouse, but the background in 2 is distracting, especially with the red panels.

Number 2, she has a friendly face, but the background doesn't convince me. The other 2 pics are ok, but her face is not as friendly, IMO.

I wasn't going to say anything at first, but now that the esteemed Fer has chimed in :-) ...the tight looking smile in this post and the other post suggests she is a little too aware of the camera.

Tell me, was she relaxed as you took these photos?

Sorry, but I don't like any of them, and especially not for a billboard. They backgrounds make the images way too busy for me, and the lighting too flat?

What kind of image are you trying to project? Those just doesn't come across as professional to me.
