Given the nature of the forum, I'll just show the lensbaby shots (unless you guys just want to see the rest).

I haven't really done any portrait photography before now, so any input it most highly valued.

Hi there - I think you're off to a great start! I particularly like the 4th and 5th images. Looks like a really fun shoot! One thing I'd suggest for future portrait shoots is to use a reflector to help fill in some of the shadows on your subject's face. It's an easy and cheap way to really help make your image pop.

For some other ideas and tips, check out our portrait tips doc (http://assets.lensbaby.com/u/userguide/59/PortraitTips.pdf) and senior portrait video: (http://lensbaby.com/video.php?id=21).
