really random you did this sunglass thing….the photos i just took have sunglasses, because she doesn’t like her eyes in pictures…she refused to take them off…but I completely agree with you……

Mmm. 12. I like the background: interesting, without overwhelming her. 6 would be my second choice, can’t really say why.

However, I can’t help thinking of the waste. From memory of your past pictures, this woman has gorgeous eyes. It should be a crime for her to wear sunglasses, never mind be photographed in them.

The set without the sunnies would be fun, but I don’t think you should put her in front of the noisy/loud backgrounds because her appeal (subjective, of course!) is in her understated beauty: the delicate kind, not the bold sort.

After another look at them, I think the reason I like #6 is the head angle. It has less of the mug shot quality (no, um, intention to cast derision on the others!) and the angle gives more interest. Combined with the plainer background, it makes a better showcase for your processing.

Now, see, I can be as loquacious as blog etiquette will allow, because I’m sure Therese will be retaining you as her photographer regardless of public reaction to her pics.
