It's good that you moved in close, but it would have been better if you'd included all of Joann's fingers.
Except for her missing fingers, Joann looks perfect :-) Loosening up her scarf was a good idea.
Photoshop: Your colorcast correction for shade is just right, all the colors look just like they should. And I like how smooth my skin looks. Thanks!
Something looks weird about Dusty's eyes though—either they're over sharpened or too bright in the whites, making him stick out. It would be better to balance the eye contrast of the four instead. A stronger contrast just where our eyelashes and eyebrows should be (with Curves and a mask) on the two white-haired ones would help bring our eyes out. Tell us not to squint! Actually, as your groups get larger, take multiple shots to increase your chances of getting one with everyone's eyes wide-open.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
