Hi everyone! Please critique and comment on these few pictures. Hope I did a good job, but I want to learn so please let me know what I could have done to make it better.

Nice pictures, the background is not really my thing. But that is a matter of personal taste.

Hard to comment on the shots in the context of the collage, as they're pretty small. Any chance of posting the ones you want comment on as individual shots?

I like 2 and 5 best.

I think they came out nice. Most of the them (but 1, 5 & 6 in particular) have too much scenery in them for my taste -- I'd close in on my subjects since the park really has nothing to do with the photo except to provide some color behind them. Also be careful with the lying down shots. In 4, mom's head looks awkward and the angle isn't very flattering to her chin. In 6 the hair is mess.

Thanks Brett....funny you should say something about the too much seniary...The lady's sister said that their is not enough seniary and I shouldn't have blurred the background too much because you can't tell where these pictures were taken. I guess to each its own... Do you think cropping some of the background would be better. I did make a note of the chin and also f the messy hair after I processed them...I guess I have to pay more attention that stuff also...I have a tendency to realize that after the shoot. This was my first maternity photoshoot....
