My favorites are 1 and 2. Love the background the light and in general the color pallette.

#1 is very nice. I like the sun lighting the side of her. Wish the crop at her waist was different maybe. Nice smile.

#2 Would be nice, but that tree looks like its trying to shove her out of the picture.

#3 Good job not letting any trees poke out of her head. So much whites of the eyes all on one side though.

#4 Not a very flattering shot. She could maybe lift her chin up a little and turn a gaze towards the camera some.

The bokeh is nice on all of them. 3 & 4 maybe under exposed slightly?

#1 is my fav of the bunch.

1. Great use of natural light here. This is my favorite shot.
2. Lighting could have been better if you'd walked more to the right (her left) to get some more of the sunlight on her face. Not a big fan of the composition of this shot, though.
3. Cute shot. I like the bokeh in this one and #4 a lot.
4. I agree that this is not a very flattering shot. I like this one better, although I wish the framing included her hands.

Nice shots!

I can only see the first one. Straight on pretty much never works for bigger people.

I cannot see the photo..looks like one was posted but says "This photo is currently unavaible. -Flickr"

There's been some modifications and take downs so they may no longer show on your end.

I would tell her not to slouch it creates a bad curvature in its not really pleasing.

Great Lighting, sharp!

I'd try some shots of her not looking directly at the camera since she looks a little nervous staring at the camera. Then an occasional flash of her eyes at the camera when she is ready...

I can only see the first two images. I am not a big fan of blown out skies. I like the soft pastel feel of the trees but the blown sky and blown water or road behind her is very distracting. I would have used a longer focal length (this is when a 200mm - 300mm lens is handy) and stepped back to recompose. This would allow you to compress and isolate the background which would remove the blown out sky and alot of the blown out water or road (whatever that is in the lower part of the frame).

Number one is your best composition but the pose seems a little awkward like she is pushing herself away from the tree. Moving her closer to the tree while moving her hand up the tree placing it at shoulder height or a little higher would put more bend in her arm and make the pose look more relaxed.

The composition in two is not very good. The tree seems to be pushing her out of the frame and the branch, in the upper left of the frame, tends to take your eye right out of the picture. If you had placed her and the tree in the left 1/3 of the image it would be a much more pleasing composition.
