Can you post the alternate photos at full size?

The first one seems a bit stiffly posed and I'm not sure what she's looking at just above our heads to the left. This gaze gives the subject an aloof distance from the viewer. Not sure if that's what you want.

Most portraits I see have a definite reason for the subject to be looking where they are: either at the viewer, or distinctly "off camera" in order to show a strong profile or thoughtful contemplative pose.
