I like where you put the light and their poses and looks are fine.
On a white background I would prefer lighter coloured clothing. The black shirts are IMO hard and distracting here. If you use light clothes on white and darker clothes on dark, the focus is more on the faces. It's also easier that way to get your exposure right and it brings more shape in the bodies.

Thank you! That's actually a really useful tip that I hadn't considered about the lighter colored shirts on white backgrounds.

Nice. I think you’re shooting a tad too high. For headshots I think they should be straight on. You can generally tell how high you are by how much much of the top of the shoulders you can see.

Thank you for that! I actually had that thought about shooting too high and have since corrected it. Hopefully, I'll get your thoughts on the next set I share!
