    All three of these are very nice, but they could be nicer with a little very easy post processing. I did this and here are the results:

    The flesh tones are too magenta vs yellow and this gives her a sunburned look which isn't working for her in these shots. This is easy to fix in photoshop: user RGB curves and pull the midtones of the blue curve a little toward darkness. There is an old thread that describes the nuts and bolts of this here.
    If not now, when?

    Nice photos of a pretty woman but she needs to go easier on the white eye shadow on the inner corner of the eye. Grabs the attention away from the rest of her face...

    Agree with rutt the skin tones have magenta cast. However, everything else bar some areas of skin must be saved the treatment rutt did, or similar, because otherwise that everything else loses impact, and these shots rely on the very sparse backgrounds for drama, so they can't lack.

    There is something strange, like a halo, at the top edge of the shoulder R in #2.

    She is a little heavy of limb to make #1 good. She looks like, and her look is like, a gladiator with an arm that could do plenty damage if attached to an ax.

    The posing ideas are fresh, however.
