Kudos

You have the technical side down as you see the light. Now you fine tune the expressions, poses and things to have the model fall into the light.

Image 1 - Lose the chair arm. Model could have arched her back and leaned into the camera more. Watch how the light falls into a particular subject. Notice the light falling on the shadow side, mouth area.

Image 2. What if she tilted her forehead into the hands....that would have gave it an awwwwwww feeling. The light would have also directed into the model. Facial lines would have been minimized.

Image 3. Clone the chair handle out to give a pleasing negative space. You are a little top heavy with space and forehead of model is paid attention to more this way. If you show the whole head, don't cut off her neck per say.

Proud of you!!!!!!!!
