The technical part of these images is wonderful, lighting, movement, and so on. 
The sepia half light one is sneakily 
very good.

What needs to happen is for her to loosen up her face. Whether she's naturally 
tense, nervous in front of the camera, 
tense about creating/holding poses or whatever, her smiles look tight and 
forced, where they would be so much more 
appealing loose and natural.

Makes me understand at least one reason all the movie/TV portrayals of fashion 
photogs taking endless shots while 
getting the models moving endlessly. Maybe it's not about endless variations of 
pose, but about getting them to forget 
to 'pose', and get into their natural body postures and relaxed facial 
expressions.

Somewhere, I read, or maybe saw a video, about a famous portrait photographer 
who dry fired for the first couple of 
'rolls', because experience had shown him that there was never anything 
worthwhile on them anyway.

Sounds like she is comfortable with you, but perhaps not yet with the camera - 
or with her own body/self in 'public' in 
a way that's new to her?
