Nice pose and wonderful soft natural light. Feels a bit too abruptly cut off at the neckline and hands. A bit more breathing space would make this pic even better I think.

I love the framing/silhouette of this one. The strong deep browns of her hair/eye are a good contrast to the subtle pinks of the skin and lips.

I keep wondering if she is upside down, but I guess that is the kind of person Hannah is.
Arresting.

When someone is laying down or is upside down, you still have to light them right. In this photo, the light is coming from "below" her face, which is called "monster lighting" because it's not terribly flattering. It's not very strong monster lighting here, but still, light coming from "above" her would have worked better because the unusual pose of the model already makes the photo look a bit strange to the viewer, who is used to seeing people the right side up.
