Okay, I'm not positive how much help I will be, but I figured I would try to critique some of your stuff, since your critique you gave me was extremely helpful and sincere.

I like the one on the left the most, I love how you put the bed frame in front of her and focused on her, blurring out the background. I also love the way the eyes and lips shine and pop, probably due to the lighting of the image. The hair is also fits well into the subject/idea you were trying to capture. I also love the positioning of the necklace. However, I feel like there are too many creams and whites in this picture. It works well with making people look at the lips of the model, but it also helps grab attention to the even bigger, redder, blurred box in the background. I wonder what the picture would have looked like if the girl wore a different color, instead of a color very much like the background. Following that same statement, the girls skin also doesn't pop out very well, but I'm not sure it's meant to. I do like the vintage feel of this photo though, and I think it was mainly well composed.

The picture on the right isn't a very strong piece compared to the left one. I feel as if the model is slightly blurred, and the way the light hits her skin, her chin almost blends in with her neck. While the make-up is beautiful, I feel as if it lacks the wow factor the left one has. This picture is also very light, with the only "darks" being her hair and eyes. In this picture, I feel as if I have seen this similar pose by many other artists, and this picture doesn't really interest me that much. The necklace distracts my eye from the girls face, but even if I don't like the position it is in, I do think it makes the posed model feel a bit more natural. I think the way you cropped this picture was very beautiful though, and I love how the pictures aren't the same size.

While the model is supposed to be blank-faced, and is in both pictures, I feel as if these were two separate pictures, I would skip the right one but would automatically favorite the right. While I don't know much about putting photos in sets, I do know that they look better with one smaller than the other, usually because it adds interest to a piece. In both pictures, I love the faint coloring, but think the cream colors sort of overtake the image. Overall, the composition for both pictures as one piece is great.

Final statement: Pretty strong composition with a lovely vintage feel.

Hope I helped!
