Neal,

I think that the cropping of the right arm on jen3a1.jpg and the leaning 
pose is not doing your model justice - she is no doubt a beautifull 
young woman but some how you make her look bulgy and again on the 
jen4a.jpg you enlarge her double chin instead og makeing it invisible - 
you may wonder why because they in a way are great poses but the ones 
you see in fashion magazines they are done with models that are on the  
edge to die from anorexia - so what I am saying is that I do find people 
beautiful  what ever size, age or gender they have,  but  young women 
are sensitive to  have anything rendered  in a way that  looks  like 
they gained just a fraction of a gram (metric) - besides that shooting 
in snow outside gives a very cold light giving skincolours a blueish red 
tone  that sholud be edited in photoshop  just a litle bit more on your 
pictures  - regards Ruben
