3rd and last shots work best for me. In those, she occupies a large portion of the frame. Last is actually my fave--dof is nice and the white/brick bg of the others isn't really working for me. Find too much negative space in most of the others. Thanks for sharing

I like the last one as well... Some of the white ones need a run through photoshop, but they're still amazing.

Thanks Jeremy Any specific tips as to how I can improve them in Photoshop?

very sharp, excellent pics

durr.. sorry I forgot to mention that.

Umm well in #3 the background ends... and so that can be cloned to make it look normal. I also would try softening her shadows, at least on the one with her arm up, because it looks odd, at first I thought it was you trying to cover something up with white at the bottom, but then realized it was a shadow.

Thanks man, very helpful.

I really like the colors in the last one. Nice set.

Thanks a lot, PhotoTails

I think these are pretty good. I love the clarity. I would watch the cropping. There are a lot of crooked crops there and they don't look far enough out to be on purpose?

Thanks a lot, mate, for the comments. Could you give me a few tips as to what I could crop these specifically? These are basically straight out of camera as far as cropping, so if it's something I should have done with framing during the shoot - tips for that would be helpful too.

Should I crop in closer for #1 and 2? I rather like #2 for her eyes.
#3's an easy fix as far as that black bit.
I know #4 is a bit of a near nip on her elbow.

The brick one's could've been framed better probably.
