I was hoping to get opinions on which photo I should use for my commercial HS, as well as what age range I would play. I hope these post ok. This is my first time posting photos, and I just got a new photobucket account- not sure what I'm really doing yet.

The blue hoodie can work for more athletic shots.

I'm not too keen with the second batches of the argyle sweater. Your hair covers it up in both of those second batch pics, defeating the purpose of the argyle.

The black shirt one is gorgeous too but I wish you weren't wearing the black.

Can I ask which one is your favorite? I'm trying to pick one to print and go do drop-offs with.

I know! I wish it weren't black too! It would probably be my first choice if it were in a happier color.

It's hard for me to accurately choose your main one because I don't know you. Minus the black shirt one, you have four different looks that suggest different things. Of those four, which one best typifies you both with regards to the roles you usually play and how you normally dress?

Based on solely looking at you and perceived age range, I think the pink one (#3 of the first batch) would be a good choice.

I too love the black shirt one, if the shirt wasn't black. I have an idea though. I recall once that a photographer or someone posting on this board changed the color of a persons shirt in a headshot from red to blue. I am not familiar with photoshop at all, but maybe this is a possibility? Perhaps you could use the black shirt one and make the shirt a different color? idk

Just because it's "rule" that black is a no-no, doesn't mean you can't break it.

It's the best photo of the bunch. You look great! Use it!

Good luck.

Thanks for the comments, I think I will use the last one. I'll check and see if it's difficult to get the shirt color changed.

My friend help me try to change the shirt color, she said it's difficult to change black. Does this look any better?
