| The pictures are fun, and you look pretty, but it looks like you met some dudes at a bar and are hanging out. Not a band pic!

Chris 
...*side-note*... do you ever check your Yahoo-Mail account?
I mailed several times now... but no response (to my hotmail-account)? I'm OFF or what?  
If you want to have a semi-professional advice regarding the BANDphoto...
....the guys actually are hard to photograph. I would say it is hard to get you all on ONE pic in a way, which would represent what people expect when hearing the name THINKING OUT LOUD.
When I hear the band-name I see some serious guys looking in the desert or such..... or in front of a skyline... but not too "real" if you know what I mean.
Well.... knowing that you have BEAUTIFUL spots and locations in Hongkong..... go somewhere in front of the sea where you also catch some modern buildings.... do that in the morning 2 hours after sunrise or in the evening 1 hour before sunset (best light for photos). Use a real Camera with 400 or more DIN-Asa and of course let the pictures be taken by a experienced person, who knows how to photograph.
Take a series of pictures of the location only without people.....
All you people should be either photographed in a studio, or in front of a unique colored wall (white, blue, green).
Make 50 pics of everybody WITHOUT drinks and cigarettes, while maintining the exact aspect ratio (no zooming
, photographer changing it's place)... if you change the aspect ratio, record the settings (your photographer should do that) and repeat the settings with everybody.
Later choose the best shots of everybody and compose with Adobe Photoshop for example, a multilayered picture....
....the good background shot... place every single character one by one on the pic.
If you are not familiar with photo-editing software.... I'm sure here are some people on the board who would help you out 
I think you will have a very good result afterwards, if somebody with taste choses the single shots and does the multi-layer-composition 
If this is all too much for you..... not wanted....
USE a live-shot of the band with instruments, that's in any way much better than the drink/cigarette-picture option.... but of all versions... I would say "C" (but with headaches  )
MIKE
