Cheesy, but cute! Even without all the hearts, it's a nice portrait with a pretty smile.

Very clever use of bokeh. I'm not sure exactly how you got the different colours, but I'm assuming there's at least one pane of glass between the camera and her face. Nice creative shot.

hard job to set up all theses lights

Nice idea (I assume it cardboard cutouts in front of the lens)... I like the 2 colours but the whites are a bit too strong and the fringing is distracting.

I don't really see bokeh in this photo, I think the overall composition is well done, however there isn't much blur as I was expecting.

Nice execution.Beautiful lighting. A more depth with foreground a little more OOF may have worked even better.

Bokeh technique or clever effect? I like the photo and the composition. 7

Not bad for this challenge, I don't know if I'd ever do that for any other reason though. A smoother cutting job would improve the edges of the bokeh.

Foreground yes - bokeh I don't think so

I don't really see much bokeh here. Some of the hearts look a bit blurry, but not really in a bokeh fashion. They also look pasted on. I expect they are on a mirror, but it looks like they could be drop-ins, which is a no-no for Basic Editing...
