Image tags are wrong mate, and you dont have the file extension with it.

Example,

The first one looks like a nice snapshot, but the other 2 look really nice. A little hot on the hair light, but otherwise I like them a lot. She's very pretty and has great eyes, even though you went a little overboard in whitening them up in post processing ;)

I wouldn't say don't touch them at all, especially if they could use a little bump to help them pop a bit. Just make sure you don't push it to the point where it looks so pure white. plus, if you're going to edit the white of the eye, it'd probably help it look more natural to also adjust the iris a bit (give it a little saturation and lightness boost)

Steve dont take it so hard. We are all here to learn, But I do have to agree, the triangles of the whites of the eyes are noticeable to my eyes. It looks like a great photo. Just dont tweak it so much.

Thanks I really appreciate all the comments. I agree with you both, the eyes are a bit overdone. This is why I joined this forum because everyone has an eye for these things. Again I really do appreciate the help.

She is a natural. That first pose is not flattering to HER, but it is a good shot. Tell her to crack a bit of a smile once in a while. I love the contrast of the red on the black BG.

In the second one, the super close crop kinda fights with the hairlight. I like the hairlight, I would just show another inch or two of top... to put the peak of her head in there.

I belong to a photography club here in cincinnati. We pay $195 a year and we have access to lights and 3 studios. Its really nice and you can rent out any of the studios 3 times a month. It only cost $5 for 3 hours. Its a great deal. http://www.ccofc.net/ (external link) check it out. I think alot of bigger cities have these around. Thanks again everyone for the advice.
