Hi there. Nice shots Very playful ... and gorgeous model!! The only thing I don't agree with too much are the colors of the fabrics, in my opition they don't match the model / mood.

I like it...however it seems like it needs a soft filter of sorts. The first image expression seems forced. Tell your subject to close her eyes and softly open them. May I work on one?

Thank you, Agnieszka!
Colors - we were going for eclectic. The whole thing was improptu, and yes, maybe I overdid it.

Actually, the 1st one is very much how she is.. And since it was for her portfolio...
But that's a good advice, I'll use it on my next victims this weekend

I like the light in 1 and 2.
I'm not crazy about the brighter light coming from above in #4. I think it works for other pictures in the set, but not for #4.

Yeah, I agree on #4. I do need to soften the hairlight .
I'm planing on making a small DIY softbox (and maybe a grid, too) tomorrow, so hopefully I'll be able to use it Sunday...
