Love all of them :) <br />You'll hate me for this suggestion, but I'll make it anyway: try to get another bunch, with the camera in such a way the shot will be from down up (all your current ones are from up-down).

These are ALL great. First of all, you are beautiful and so photogenic! You can't go wrong with any of them. My favorite is the final photo though - it has it all...a great smile, a natural pose, and framed by your incredible studio. And wow, that studio!!!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16954185877461502547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2235517612628723574.post-71169508492247506102013-09-30T11:07:08.964-04:002013-09-30T11:07:08.964-04:00You're right, it is nice to see what our onlin...You're right, it is nice to see what our online friends actually look like. You are so pretty, friendly, and young!!! It's really, really hard to get good self-portraits. I've done many of them for a daily project I did for a few years. It's funny how the image we have of ourselves in our minds doesn't match what others see when they view our picture. Your fresh, friendly pictures got me thinking that I need to revisit my profile pics.

I like the last one because it does show off all your work 'things' (not junk at all!) and you look very happy and content. But my fav is the side one,...the one you called 'candid'. You look like you're working or teaching while telling someone about what you do - there's a certain sparkle in your eye in that one as well!
