I like the concept of the BnW photo. The tones and the balance are right on, however I'm not a fan of the extremely shallow depth of field, the background is just a tad to out of focus. However, I feel that you are very close to getting it perfect. As far as the color photos...Overall there is a bit too much warmth (more specifically yellow) for me to truly appreciate them. The composition, however is nice.
The first photo is probably the weekest as it seems to have the worst retouch on the face. The final photo is definitely the best and the expression on the model's face is phenomnal. I love the set and use of bokeh throughout!
