Hey I am new to the stock world so hoping to get some extra information on why these were rejected so I can avoid making the same mistakes next time. 

Thanks

Here are my observations:

Stock-1 - a bit underexposed, her eyes are not in sharp focus. Leaning verticals are distracting, and the composition could have been improved.

Stock-2 - also a bit underexposed, and leaning verticals

Stock-4 -  overexposed highlights and underexposed shadows. The composition is unbalanced, and you've cut off part of the model.

Stock-3 - again overexposed highlights and underexposed shadows. You should have cropped off that part of the window frame on the right side.

I assume you supplied a model release for the woman.

Thank you for your input. Yes, a model release was attached to the images.
