Amanda: Uh, no. It's time for Amanda to get picky again. I don't like how gray this is, and it seems to have some sort of Photoshopping done by whoever took it - your skin looks strange and the already-dull background makes it even duller. There's also that little logo in the corner, which is a distraction - it's easy to Photoshop out of there. You're also showing a little skin, which makes the pose sort of awkward. As for your smile, it's okay, but in a photo this gray, you want your smile to breathe color into it. It doesn't do that. It's sort of blended into the rest of the photograph, thus it isn't vibrant, either. We wanted three things here: Vibrancy, setting, and a commercial presentation. This really isn't any of those. It's too drab to be vibrant, there is no setting, and I could see this on a subway station ad that I wouldn't remember after leaving the place. I do like your hair, but... that's about it. Sorry :/

Joan: I think you nailed the “smile” part of the photo, you have a beautiful smile, good pose and I love the hair being blown back. However, I agree with Amanda that the gray drags this photo down. I think this has a lot of potential to be commercial, but it doesn’t have a great setting or vibrant. Even though your smile is big and bright this photo is still forgettable.

Beth: As far as for the smile, I think you did good. I love the smile. I think it's natural. But in term of the other elements, like styling & setting, I didn't think you nailed it. I agree with Amanda regards to the Vibrant. This photo really needs that. This photo reminds me of a bad version for Cosmopolitan Magazine cover. But at least you smile.

Anna: You have an absolutely gorgeous smile here, Katie. It really does help to brighten up the mood of the whole image, but unfortunately, it still isn't nearly enough to wipe away the dreary blandness of it all. The wind in your hair and the simplicity of your outfit helps to bring out the idea of freshness, but your top is in desperate need of a color injection. You've obviously failed in the setting and background aspect of this photo shoot, but you should still be very proud of that smile.
