Default First try at Headshots

My friend's daughter needed some headshots for a pageant. After the original photographer flaked on them she called me. I am in no way a professional, nor do I want to be anytime soon. I just love to take pictures. Here are a few.

Thanks! I take pictures as a hobby. My son races go-karts and it seems that is all I usually get to take pictures of! I was so excited to shoot a person standing still! LOL

Both of these are very nice. I'm thinking next time your friend will call you first!

Absolutely Gorgeous! If I was to critique, I'd crop a little off the top of the first pic to get the eyes higher up in the composition.
