The teeth are hilarious in #6! That one may be my favorite of these. I also like #5, but find the foreground distracting- crop it. I think I like #3 a lot, but the vignette is too heavy for my taste. It looks as though these could use a bump in exposure and contrast. I would have liked to have seen her eyes more, which would have required a reflector or flash.

Congratulations on surviving the first year! And happy birthday to your little one.

Thanks! Shortly after shooting these, she had SIX other teeth come in, these were the last that had just those two. She now has her four on top and two more on the bottom.

I still haven't decided which one I want to hang on my wall.

On bumping contrast, I never know how much to bump it. I am always afraid to go too far and end up with them looking fake.

On the eyes/flash...I did use some fill flash on most of them. I would love to get eyes that are more obvious like so many other posts I see here.
