Don't shoot till you can see the whites (and colors) of their eyes!

I was messing around with my girlfriend....no! taking photos at a park with her.

She's kind of my test subject and after a photoshoot a few days ago she brought up an interesting point. She said:

I really only like images where you can see the whites and color in my eyes.

I thought about it, looked over our images, and understood what she was getting at. Although she was at a proper exposure and all detail could be see, a stop or so could have brought out more color and brighter whites in her eyes.

I started searching other 'model photoshoots' and found that in a lot of other models, you can clearly see their eye color (as opposed to gray or black)

My question is...is this a good strategy when doing photoshoots? Although I may be a stop lower, is this how others take photographs or is this just a simple coincidence? Do YOU take your photos thinking about this? :) Thanks guys!
