Just added 4 new photos of my most recent shoot. I am working on rebuilding my port after a very long hiatus. Let me know what's a keeper or what is trash (or all  of them are one or the other).

I may edit the one with the flower critique so it is a bit less saturated and change the look a little to be more idk editorial ish?

the focus of the flowers and the face do not agree, the flowers are kinda out of focus.

the first two, the face and lipstick seem cool compared to the warm colors of the flowers.

I don't like the logo on the photos.

Thanks!

Sorry the logo is so large, I have been playing around with it, I haven't found one I like yet.

I would suggest cropping the bottom of the photo off to get rid of the fence rail in the bottom right corner of photo.
What this will do is make the rider and horse pop more and will also move the horse to the bottom of the photo from the center

A more natural look is to have the eyes looking more where the nose is pointed, this will give you white on both sides of the iris. The eyes should really be in sharp focus. Something to try with your portraits is a diffusion filter that you screw on to the front of the lens as a filter


Wish you well
