The light background allows for your black hair to stand out better. I think you took the comments from the Glamour section and used them to the best. Nice job. I like the third shot here and the last two in the glamour section. The blown white in the last causes a unique affect that gives a softness to the image. Keep posting!

Finally I can comment directly to you. Number 2 is my personal favorite for all the reasons I have PM'd you. You are made to do closeups for the camera. So much personality in those eyes. Just outstanding young lady. More please.

Funny, I didn't think the smile was forced. Looked to me like you heard a really good joke and had a nice laugh... Go figure... Sometimes we can be to self-critical.

Nice shots. I prefer #2, although #3 is cute.

You are a pretty woman, and the photos attest to that. However, one of the photos of you at your Web site is just stunningly beautiful and second to none.

I dont like number one because it is exactly what you said it was a forced smile for the pourpose of letting us see that you saw the comments before. Number two is great, relaxed, emotive your eyes speak volumes. Number three is an attempt to be coy and a bit devilish, just to keep us honest.

Great pictures, I agree that you are very lovely and that you are very brave, keep them coming they are terrific.

I think I would have liked a slightly lower crop on #3, desaturation of the teeth on #1&3, and a little softer lighting on all. Thanks for posting, it's always a pleasure.

I learned a new cheap lighting trick from a pro last night. He had two sets of 2-4x8 foam core binded together like a book into which he shot his lights. $10 per sheet from the distributor. It acted like a 12x8 light box that he could direct. He could also move around without adjusting his lights since it was such a big diffused source. With the U bank reflector (4-4x8s) and a small gold reflector under the face to catch the eyes he had some amazing results.
