Wow this is perfect! Well if it were't for the piercing that is. Why the hell do kids these days feel the need to mutilate themselves? Hello? you're beautiful! Stop messing with perfection!

This one also looks very good. I personally like the processing, even though her hair is a little blown out. I really don't like that eyebrow thing however...

I really like this one. Yes, it is a bit overprocessed, but I think it works. I agree with the annasense about the eyebrow thing. It really doesn't work with the rest of the shot. If it were me, I would also clone out the blemishes on her right arm.

This is a great shot, and your model is beautiful. The smile is perfect, and I really like the eye brow ring. The lighting works well for this bright picture.

My only problem is the back eye is out of focus.

i really like this one best. from a parent's point of view it would be the one to hang on the wall because it shows her as just a happy beautiful girl.

This is a very fun shot, but I think the high key aspect has put the focus on your photography rather than on the subject's appearance and character. This wouldn't be a problem, but in your request for comments you stated that these are senior portraits. When I look at this particular image I want to see the models eyes and I want to see the dress.

Hope you don't mind me picking on this a bit, but you did ask for advice.

First I picked this images because I think the lighting is very well done. Nice catch lights in her eyes. The hairlight is not overpowering. There is a decent depth to the shadows.

I do think there are a couple of things you could do to help with the pose:
- the right arm reaching back widens her where she does not need to be wider.
- the top of her right arm being so far forward hides her neck and the top of her chest. A little more open here would have added depth to the image.
- i believe her left arm was up and positioned behind her head. Her arm showing in front of her neck widens her again and leaves we wondering what happened to her arm.

These aren't major problem, but once you reach this level the details really start to count.
