Very nice portrait - I like the highlight lighting on her hair.

What a beautiful model, and what a beautiful smile.
She will be very proud of this fine portraitm, I am sure.
I also love the lighting very much.

The portrait is pleasing, but the wide, white border with the thin brown border around it is very distracting. Also, the merger of the model's sleeve with the frame on our left should really have been avoided.

This is a great portrait. Your control of light is very good and your model is beautiful. Frame/crop is nic, and the vignette is a nice touch. 8

PLeasant portrait. Maybe a bit soft in focus but not bad. The cropped top of the head is a bit odd and the outer border really isnt good for this image. 7

Great pose for this lovely young girl, I love the hair and the lighting, only complaint, and its just a small one is that perhaps you lightened her teeth to much, they don't look quite natural while the rest of her is so naturally pretty. 8

i like how your border looks like it is in a picture frame. imo the hair in front of her eye takes a little bit away from her portrait.

Cute photo - I like her smile. The white border detracts a bit and makes the photo to look "squished" in to me.

Good portrait, I think the light from the right is a bot too harsh compared to the fill light on the left. And the whites of the eyes are overprocessed.
Focus is good and a natural looking capture.

Nice side lighting on this. It might be even stronger if her teeth weren't so white (they draw the attention away from the eyes).

Nice honest portrait. I wish her hair wasn't covering the eye to our right. Not loving the frame. I'd remove the brown border. She's lovely.

Lovely well done portrait. Has nice light from the side, nothing blown, clean whites of the eye (I've accepted that people prefer them that way, but I still like "normal" eyes), nice natural smile. About the only thing I might suggest you'd have done differently is not have a top with a design on it. Nice work.
