Creative Edits vs Natural? You tell me

Hi Everyone..

So I did some creative edits (i.e. simple pre-set in lightroom) after giving my client her photos and my client loved them..

I normally hate heavily edited photos so I thought I would gain some perspective from you guys.. Is my client a sucker for photos that don't actually look like photos or do these actually look good?

I don't think they look bad at all, personally. #3 could maybe use a bit of contrast, but other than that I think they add a little mood to the pictures. I like the color cast.

I think that I'd like to see the originals and see why you would rather put that preset on them.
