    9 is killer!
    Harsh shadows on 8 though.

    IMHO nice set of pictures:
    • Good location
    • nice sky in #1
    • your subject has confident body language
    • natural looking post processing.

    Maybe consider:
    • different angle or time on location, might be less cars which are somewhat distracting.
    • showing various expressions or working with your model to get varied expressions.
    • #4 has some blown highlights on the left.
    • #9- slight crop would remove satellite dish on right which is a light color that draws the eye when you look through the picture.

    Thanks for sharing.

    something funky going on her left inner thigh on 4, looks like a post error. Beautiful eyes!

    Thanks!

    On 4, I decided to blow out the highlights in pp to bring her out of the shadows more. I'm just lazy to spend too much more time on it. rolleyes1.gif

    We spent about 3 hrs and she had 4 outfits so we have different looks around the area, although not on the balcony. I agree on the cars to an extent and you can see I blew them out in some of the shots where I wanted her to be the feature. I was also going for environmental shots, warts and all in regards to the background.

    It's just a shadow. It is in all the pics from this angle.

    Thanks, and I agree on 8. I liked it though when I was first going through the pics. Her eyes seemed brighter than in other pictures.
