The Housekeeper

My preference is the photo below but the shutter speed
was too slow (I did use a tripod) and she turned her head slightly.
Next time a higher ISO.

Very nice lighting and great expression. Watch the background. Good to avoid lines growing out of people's heads, move a little to your right or left, whichever.

Expression is priceless.

Bothe are good although I would pick the second one if I had to pick. Just a better pose in it.

Wonderful pensive expression and beautiful portrait. I saw a Colonial reenactment and found out the leading cause of death among woman was burning due to their clothing and the open hearth fires.

nice depth of field. those wide sleeves look a bit impractical for a housekeeper.

she looks sad

Wow, great lighting on both shots!

These are terrific Cliff. The actors are well suited for their characters.
Have you tried a b/w conversion on the second? It might offset some of the shake???

Beautiful portrait.

Great shots, nice light. Maybe bump the iso to get a faster shutter speed?

Wonderful shots. Remind me of Anna Yu's photos from Skansen in Stockholm.

Great lighting on both, very soft.

Her posture suits her role perfectly.
