Please please dont take this the wrong way, but I probably wouldnt describe you as sweet. Ever. Fun, precocious, energetic, witty...yes...sweet? no....which eliminates 16 completely (it seems like Im-smiling-for-a-picture-trying-to-look-sweet-Amy, instead of 17 which is much more genuine and true to the Amy I know and love).<br /><br />That being said my pics (in order of best to less) are:<br />3<br />15<br />13<br />17<br /><br />hope that helps. :) Alright….so the pictures are supposed to show your pesonality right?

Although Andrew did a great job overall, many are not appropriate for your needs. The first thing to remember is the USAGE of this picture. It's not to go on your Mom's mantle...or the one that makes Andrew's heart flutter...or a silly goofy one that your friends think captures you. It's a business selling tool. So start by ignoring Andrew's suggestions. :)<br /><br />If you use any of the ones where you're shoved way over to the right side of the frame, I think you need to crop them (just a tad). I understand the idea...but for "headshot" purposes - or to be used to show you on your website - <br />I think they read more "look how artsy I am, and I use the 'thirds rule' ", as opposed to just PRESENTING YOU. <br /><br />(I understand that your needs here are different from an actor's...but I will say that when I get that sort of shot from an actor, I toss it. It means they care more about taking an artistic picture than they do about presenting and selling their product.)<br /><br />So, that being said, I think the best possibilities are: 5, 7, and 10 (if you crop some of the top), and 16 - with 16 being my favorite.<br /><br />I REALLY like the "X-Men" photo too...but again, I think you're right that it's not for these purposes. You don't look at that and say, "I want a mutant to photograph my wedding!"<br /><br />Why do you ask for our opinions, when you know we'll all just disagree and throw you into further turmoil? I also like the green sweater look.

Andrew did a great job! If you some reason you decided that you wanted to use the first ones, I can easily fix the line across the picture. But the second set is really nice too, so probably not necessary. It was hard for me to decide, but I like # 1 - cute, creative, but serious about your work. <br />3 - you look like you'd be fun to work with.<br />5 - I like this expression!<br />16 - Sweet!
