I think Brent had it. A little flash fill is all that is needed here. The poses and setting are very nice. Try and get a PS crash course from Alison and you are good to go. The lighting is a little harsh on her forehead and shoulder on #3, but I see you getting better with every post.

These are great Tyson. Showing some great improvement. Keep up the good work :)

I can offer no advice but thanks for sharing and asking as when I break down and try some portraits I'll know what to look for.

these are definitely getting better tyson, the poses and expressions are improving enormously. If you don't mind, I'd like to see one of your original images, straight out of camera. I just want to see what they look like before you process them. It's entirely up to you, but if you would like to, and see what I would do with it, send it to me at livin4lax09 (@) comcast.net

Looking good.
