 April,
 
 Because I cannot leave well enough alone, a second example:
 
 
 https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Ca4gKTlu72k/VGDwQNFC2bI/SOU/_3YxRElY7t8/s0/april-2.jpg
 
 This time it's basically some simple color toning, a vignette, and
 lifting
 the blacks again (with some slight split-toning).

April,

The particular part of G'MIC I'm referring to is Film Emulations.  There
are quite a few different emulations for various film stocks that may get
you what you are looking for color-wise.

Bear in mind that the 'darkness' to the images in your first post are due
to a combination of processing as well as the exposure conditions at the
time.  Your sample images have quite a bit of direct sunlight in them,
which makes it a bit harder to impart a sense of 'darkness' in them.

Here's a quick (5min) edit to show what I mean:

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_BBemcslfSU/VGDsLkisGxI/SOI/qDOQTfGc6RA/s0/april-1.jpg

I used one of the film emulations (I don't remember now).  Masked her to
and raised the curves to lighten her slightly.  Added a vignette.  Then
crushed the shadows a bit and lifted the black point (in the levels dialog
- bring the input black level up, then raise the black output level to
taste).

 April,
 
 The process to emulate those looks will be dependent on what her
 images
 look like to start with.  If you can post/send a few sample images I
 can
 probably point you in the right direction to get started.
 
 If I had to guess I might lean towards VSCO film presets (you can get
 similar presets from the G'MIC plugin as well).
