New to portraits
Here are a couple of portraits from my latest shoot.
I've been doing photography for about a year and started doing people photography, seriously, about 6 months ago.
I'm asking for honest feedback on my images.
Thanks!!

On the road
It looked like a pursuit, but in reality, it was a peaceful movement.

Needs Work!
I see these comments on many photos - BTW - those who are putting comments like "Needs Work" should elaborate to say what is needed according to them.

Mia is a natural in front of the camera. She knows where the light is and plays to it in a soft, knowing way.

Keep up the good work. I like them all...though the frog seems more in focus than the model in one. The tricky pic behind glass works well. Good job.
Thank you for taking the time to look and comment!
For my personal taste... 1st image (leaning on wall), I would have moved the DOF a little further back to center her in the in focus part and not have the attention drawn to the bricks at the left/front of the image. 2nd image, I like to overall shot, composition and posing but I would like to have the face not be so bright, I might have stopped down a half (or full) stop to get the face correct and not worried about the background darkening. 3rd image, the focus is on the frog not the model. The 4th image, through the glass, is the best shot here - nailed it! I wouldn't change a thing (lighting, composition, clarity, all good). 5th shot - my eye is drawn to her sleeve. I like the shot of her, just find the sleeve distracting.
Overall though. Great series of images. Good lighting and posing. Keep it up.
