Reminded me of things mentioned in Galen Rowell's book 'Inner Game of Outdoor Photography', where he writes about Edwin Land's experiments and demonstrations regarding the way we percieve colour. Very good book if you can find it, worth getting from the library.

I like the compositions.
his works well.
hers...I'd try short lighting to narrow her face and a slightly higher angle to hide the chin more , and get some fill into the far eye, as well as get her to look at a different spot to keep the whole retina in the closest eye.
you know the old saying about cracking a few eggs to make an omlette?
I'd say this is definately better than broken eggs, not quite an omlette, perhaps a really good denver? very good!

well that is about as "wrap around" and "diffused" light as you'll likely find for a portrait subject...would do wonders for the "beauty challenged" people...
