Im not a big fan of the lighting. Good compisition. But in portrait or model shooting, the light should make the model stand right out. She seems to just blend in in these pictures. Big reflectors and extra lighting are almost a neccesity in portrait or model shooting.

edit: The first one is great (for some reason just loaded on me) Excellent lighting and composition.

Love the first one, the lighting is not as good in the others. Try using reflectors and existing light, especially at sunset, because the light from the flash is so much colder.

a few of these are really quite beautiful. i'm not a fan of #2, #4, or #9(the photoshop collage)

#2 is not as good as it could've been mainly because the lighting on her face. having the majority of her face in the shadow (especially with that catty look, which is nice were it lit up) gives off a weird vibe, somewhat creepy to me.

#4 is a big no. never have the subject(the model) out of focus. it's just not right. i don't know what caught your eye about that little sprig of tree, but it's definitely not more important than the model.

# 9 doesn't do it for me mainly because i don't like how the texture of the chipping paint meshed with her face. it ruins the effect of soft, supple skin, which you want to accentuate with female models, even if it is a mesh of different photos.

hope this helped :teeth:

First off she's a babe!, and I think these are great portrait shots, but you definitly need more practice. Its great that your using natural lighting, but natural light isn't always going to work with you or the model very well. The natural light makes her skin look great in the first shot, but as the sun sets or clouds etc interfere with the lighting it doesn't flatter her skin tone. I happen to disagree with injection223 about the tree shot with the modeling being out of focus. I think its a good artistic shot, but if this were a professional modeling job it would be a bad idea. You've got a good handle on these modeling shots, but I suggest you practice and challenge yourself with an indoor shoot.

thank you all for your comments, it helped alot.. actually I forgot to tell this was my second try on model shots, and it not made for professional usage. It was made for me and my girl (she's my model) .. I'll try to take care more on the next photos..

I ADORE the third one. The facial expression is perfect.
I love the eyes, and to tell you the truth, I love the lighting.

Great work.
