These are nice pictures but i don't know if it is the wig, the makeup or the excessive retouching but these do not come close to showing the real you. In the first three you look 16-18. You look great in the scarf, but that would be for submitting for a very specific role. The last one is the only one that is anywhere close to usable for a 13 year old.
You might go back and try "unretouching" the area under your eyes. Having no creases at all is just not natural and anyone who looks at these will know right away.
Congrats on getting the braces off! Your teeth look great!

My favorites are the first one (the smiling one), and the one with short hair. (I'm guessing the long hair is the wig and the short hair is what your hair looks now? I'm glad it's grown out enough now to look like a chic, short haircut so you don't have to wear the wig all the time!) Both looks are very flattering on you!
I don't like the ones with the kerchief though. What was the purpose of those?

Morgin, you have a great smile and you make beautiful eye contact with the camera. The wig looks a little odd, but other than that they look very nice. Lots of energy.

I must agree, you have a great connection. The green shirt without the wig rocks if you ask me. Nice choice in character roles, alot of projects are casting for that look, (middle-eastern) from what I hear. Good luck.

i gotta go with brandondad on this one. just way over-retouched. unnatural skin and no lines around your eyes, despite those big grinny smiles. it's just unnatural.
but yes, you look great! my faves are the no wig green shirt and the wig green shirt.
great middle eastern shots too! obviously not headshots, but great for very specific character work.

Hi Morgin, My favorite is the green shirt NO wig. You have a pretty face and I don't think the wig does you any Justice. However if I was to choose one with a wig it would be the last one. I do like the character shots also and your mom is very pretty too! (you look alike!)

Brandondad and americangirl... 16-18? Wow. (I mean this in sincerity) Is it my face or just the picture? Because I AM only 4'8 and I way less than 80 pounds. I'll ask the photographer for the raw images so I can see. Thanks!
TRUTHTELLER...thanks! Which one do you think is better for a commercial shot?
TMR... Thanks so much! Oh, they were because I go on a lot of auditions for Middle Eastern/Muslim teen roles and I wanted to have a picture that showed it. It's a character-y kind of shot.
GJJ- Thanks! She said thanks, lol!
Paradice- Oh, thanks!
Jon_K: Thank you! Thanks to everyone!! And thanks for saying I look nice. Ironically, the braces were taken off prematurely (by me). LOL!
---------------- Just to endure is a triumph.
