Well this is my best friend I got the idea to take a shot of her with the 50mm during sunset near a window. First time to try this out with a white wall as background.

I'm on an ipad right now but they're pretty small (as far as I can tell). Repost at the forum maximum size of 1024 on the long side. You'll get more response that way.

I like #2. #1 looks like it could use some highlight recovery.

#2 looks to be a more flattering angle to me.

Nice work!

One thing I would have done is edit away or comb down the fly away hairs a little more. Just my opinion though.

Ninja edit:
I like your logo.

#1 looks a bit over exposed.

#2 looks much better and the pose looks better.
