2nd one is brilliant. 3rd one seems a bit dark though. Still great shots, especially for a first time.

thank you!

I agree I may need to do a bit more work on the one's we shot outside as they are just a tad on the dark side...

I'm hoping with a bit more experiance I'll get the exposure right the first time round :P

like those shots, a little bit dark for the 3rd, but still a great set of portrait

Thats right. Just keep practising.
I wondered if it might have been the desired effect. As if the 3rd was set seperate to the other two I think it would have a good effect. But when left in comparison to the others...

Beautiful shots of a beautiful girl. I am really struck by the first one...but really like them all a lot. Nice work.
