In my "Models" album, there is an intentional style I'm trying to develop for my photography.

This "Style" is most prevalent in the following photos, but you'll see more on my portfolio:
The Caged Bird Doesn't Sing

Eyes Forward

Effort for the Profound

Invitation

Irresolute


I am curious what you think and if this "Style" is headed down the right path as far as editing technique?

I know personally I want to go a little "softer", and have tried to so do on some of my photos in my port.  Including "Irresolute".

I know I could use a refresher on ISO and have struggles with noise a little, but also think it adds some necessary character...Hopefully I use it appropriately where noticed. But I recently upgraded my camera (no shots posted yet with new rig), and hope this will help solve the problem.
