So... after the attempt at non-traditional portraits, here is my most recent work with a future model. All suggestions and comments are welcome. Thank you in advance for looking.

Julie, I've been to your website and like your work. Here are some strictly layman observations on these three.
#1 and #3: I don't favor a lot of touchup, but these would benefit from slight skin smoothing, especially her forehead.
#1: I like the pose. Whatever is behind the top of her head is a little distracting.
#2: Would have been better in shade or during golden hours, maybe with some fill flash. The bright sun on her forearm and jacket distract from a pretty face. The foot looks unnatural and the flip flop cheapens the shot. I like it better cropped above her foot.
#3: My favorite. Very pretty girl, but I've been married too many times already. ;)

Ok...to start with...these are pretty good so don't think that I'm dumping on you...but here is what I see:
Image #1:
The background is SLIGHTLY distracting with the dark/light line running through her head. It would have been better to pick one single color to blur.
Her head is tilted too much for me...not sure if that's a personal thing.
Her jawline...nice and tight...very good. :)
Image #2:
Her face is less exposed than just about everything else in the shot...the background, her arm, her clothes. Better to use a reflector to get more exposure into her face.
Also, her eye sockets...same thing..they are dark.
Catchlights...there are none. Same thing...needs fill or a reflector.
Image #3:
Nice....but her eye sockets are a slight bit "racooned"...a bit of fill card or fill flash would have improved this. Also...that would have helped to create catchlights (or better ones)
The reason I'm being so critical is that these are very good and they just need a few small things...so I'm being critical and noticing everything.
