Like the 2nd pic. catchy eyes & 5th pic nice bokeh.
1st pic something is not right with her hair?
3rd pic is tad overexposed.
4th pic crop a little off on left side of pic.

Beautiful subject you’ve… Thanks for sharing.
:-P :P

Beautiful girl! I love portrait photography. I would have her lift her chin just a smidgen in fourth picture. My favorite one by the way.

Hi,
I think the first picture is the best. It is hard though to shoot almost into direct sunlight. I think you could use a UV filter on your lens. You lose a lot of detail of her hair in the shadow. You may try using your fill-flash or similar option on your camera to compensate.

Lovely shots,
rs

Thanks!
I have a UV filter on-- I wonder if a polarized filter would help- i have 1 to fit my 50mm 1.8.

The last and 1st pic are shot with an old 50/ 1.4 "Pentax/takumar" lens with a skylight filter.

Love the first and last.

Ist. picture: Cropped ... Selected highlight area with Lasso Tool and put on separate layer ... "Command U" to darken and saturate highlight area.

On a profile shot a good rule is to not let the nose extend beyond the cheek. A slight adjustment in head or body would have accomplished this idea.

You do very good portraiture posing.

Thanks-- there is something weird with her hair in my first shot- I think it was the combo of that old Pentax lens and the lighting --
I will have to try to get one with her face/nose positioned as you suggest :)
