I liked 1, 2, and 3 the best of all of the photos. Color headshots are kind of a new thing these days - they no longer have to be blk/wt only. I prefer 1 or 3, because for dance, these photos show your shoulders and arms. The last 2 photos seem amateurish; I wouldn't use them.
Good luck!

Number two or number three.

number two because it is just a wonderful shot of you. You are very beautiful and that particular shot shows so much of what you are. It also places you in a set like scene. I would probably crop some of the right side of the pic some and maybe some of the bottom too.

Number three because again you are so very beautiful and your smile is contagious. Also the natural lighting is very nice. Good luck. Here they are in black and white with my own little touches.

Focus more on how "professional" the photo looks, not how good YOU look in the photo. The most professional photo is the second one with the wall on the left. You and your art as a dancer are not what is being judged in an audition photograph. It is the art of the PHOTOGRAPHER that matters. An amateurish photograph will make the viewer file not only the photograph but YOU as well under "amateur" in their mental files. You also happen to appear your most feminine and mature in that photo.

I'll have to agree with Ai...most headshots are in black and white and the third, (Headshots2120.jpg), is your best bet of the lot.
I will tell you that none is perfect. The third was taken too close to the camera. A zoom lens at at least 70mm is preferable, because whatever is closest to the camera appears larger. You are a very attractive woman, and this picture actually shows your left eye is bigger than your right. (which worked out for Christy Turlington, but she knows how to downplay it, as does her photographer).
Good luck and I hope this helps!

The first three are very nice and interchangeable. In the forth, you forgot to smile. In the last two, I cannot tell where you end and the shadows begin due to the black. Since you are a dancer, you might want one that shows the whole body, with color, and with the smile. Did I mention the smile?

I think the light is best on you in the second pic. The third one is also nice because of your smile. You look cute in the last two but the shadows on your face don't let your beauty come ou as much as the others. I say you go with number two. Your smiling but not too much. The light looks good and you look symmetrical.

With out a question #2. It is the best photograph of them all. #3 is framed the best for a headshot. But #2 is by far the best photograph in there, it is pretty much perfect.

The third one...that is the only one that is really framed the way a heashot should be. The last two show way too much of your body. It is a HEADshot. I hope you get whatever you are auditioning for!
(Also I would suggest that you convert it to b/w as is standard practice. )

I like the third one. The casting director and the director can get a good look at your face. Plus, you're smiling. No one wants to work with a sour-puss. Headshots are supposed to be black and white, but I suppose these will do.
