Gorgeous young lady....crazy beautiful eyes...She's a former gymnast, now is only about 2 seconds away from beating the school record for cross country. Super, super nice...






Technically not a senior portrait....cause her little sister is included...but one of my favorites anyway:

Really like the 3rd one. The rather busy bg works well for some reason. : )

I really like the second one. The only thing is I think those boots compete with her face for looks! I look at her face, I look at her boots....:)

Her eyes are the same color as the boots just about. Do you think blurring them out a bit might help? Or I could desaturate them a bit?

I think maybe a bit of both? Just my opinion. It's a gorgeous picture nonetheless!

Great shots.
I agree about the boots. They make the visual hierarchy really challenging. They definitely need to be less prominent.

On #1, the reflection in her eyes is really detailed. Is that you reflected in her eyes, and were you wearing a red shirt? Even if not, she has a strange red eye thing happening. Maybe blur the catch lights a little, and take out any red that might be there.

Good photos. 2 seems a bit cool but it doesnt ruin anything. Kinda compliments her eyes.
