Got a call from a Matron of Honor at a recent wedding. She asked if I would mind taking some family photographs. Olive skin, gorgeous eyes....the whole family! Does it get any better? :D

As always, C & C to your heart's content. As I start to post more and more, most of you will begin to recognize a bit of a darker (literally) style with me. That's fine really.....because it's me. :thumb The people that hire me know this going in, as they all get to see past work before EVER agreeing to any type of monetary exchange. Just a brief background bio on me, I suppose.

Anyway, on to the drop-dead gorgeous children.

Dontcha just hate 'em?! :rofl

1. (Mom, Amanda and Dad, John watch patiently. Staged shot of course.)

    Wow....good stuff! clap.gif (and I suppose it doesn't hurt that the family is darn good look'n).

    #1 I wish Aubrey was looking at the camera
    #2 not a huge fan of the leg shot, but that is a personal preference
    #3 adorable, though I tend to think her skin looks much darker (more yellow/olive here), it looks like there are some spots on her leg that I might clone/heal
    #4 thumb.gif
    #5 love the processing, composition clap.gif
    #6 fantastic, though I wonder what it would look like processed as in #5
    #7 So precious! :D
    #8 very good, but I LOVE #9 :ivar
    #10 I like, but much prefer #12
    #11 is beautiful!

    Such good stuff....love your style! bowdown.gif

    Just wonderful! Very nice portraits, I love your rustic backgrounds, the kiddos are too adorable for words and your processing is spot on!! clap.gifiloveyou.gif

    The only comments I would have are for
    - # 3 & 4, I think (and that might be just my opinion), it would have been nicer, were the chair angled a bit more (and if her one shoe sole wasn't pointing directly towards you) / the chair is too much of a side view for me, but then again, the pics are beautiful.
    - and #5 (especially next to #6), it looks too blue-ish to me ...
