I'm not a portraitist; but I think these would have much more impact if the model were looking directly into the lens. Other than that, I like the light and the model is very pretty. I like them.

Really nice. Maybe use a reflector next time to brighten and warm up her face a bit.

I think they are good the way they are, except #3 is a little
out of focus.

Number one is very nice.
a reflector as Monnsey noted, also would have possibly provided catch light for her eyes. Head angle looks a little to acute.
Very good effort.You have a nice model . Google single flash outdoor portraits . Many neat set ups for portraits and ideas.
Keep shooting but watch the sunburn.

I like the easy expression and the light is quite nice, but with a small movement you could have eliminated the hotspot blow-out on the hair. A faster shutter speed or lower ISO would have allowed a larger l aperture, which would have more nicely blurred the background.
As mentioned the angle of the head is a little extreme , , but not bad.
The crop is too tight and there should be room left for the subject to face into the frame rather than out of the frame.
I have done a quick and dirty adjustment or two to give you an idea of what I am suggesting.
I love the fact that you have taken your subject to the light . . . a very nice effort and with a few minor adjustments you could have a wonderful location for more natural light sessions.

Keep on shootin' . . . love to see more! :thumbup:

Sorry . . the last two images just didn't do it for me.

A few adjustements

I like #1 the best... a little off center to the right but still a very nice shot - good work.
