Took a few SPs in hopes of getting something good enough to send out to family and friends for the Holidays.

This was the best shot. I think I may look a little too serious but I was getting really annoyed with the photog!! :dunno

Is this really "Sears Portrait Looking" to you guys:

    More depth, more shadows than a Sears shot. It's a cute studio picture, and your family and friends will love it. I think you've accomplished your goal. Is it your best art work? Probably not, but that's not what usually goes out on a holiday card.

    Looks really good to me. thumb.gif Although, if you could crop the dude out of the shot, it would be even better. rolleyes1.gif

    Could just be my monitor (on a laptop) but it looks alittle cold to me... Could also be the blue shirts.

    It's definitely not on the warm side, but it could work for me.

    What did you do to the skin in this photo? I'm not sure I'm liking it, tbh. It almost looks over sharpened if you look at it at 100%. I've seen much nicer processing from you thumb.gif
