Awwww... Do you have any selects where they are touching arms, and perhaps looking at the camera? I'm kind of a freak when it comes to having family members touch. I think it shows an intimate connection. I realize not all families are like that, so not criticizing at all. Just thought I'd ask.

I've always found looking down shots like this to be confusing or to busy for my eyeballs... Their hands & positioning are nice... I too would rather them looking into the camera & think that would have saved this shot for me... I'm also fairly certain the one on the bottom won't like her armpit... But hey... Nice exposure

Thanks for the comments

I do have quite a bit of other pictures of them touching/looking at the camera and just about every variation. Unfortunately it was a pretty big failure in my eyes. There were two other photos I was really hoping would turn out and on one the DoF is off enough that its bothersome. When out shooting and looking at the picture on my camera I didnt notice it other wise I would have changed some setting around. The other picture the exposure is quite harsh. Possible third shot but didnt like the hand placement.

Ill post them up when I get off of work this evening

Overall I like the picture. They both look happy and pretty, and the lighting and colors are very nice. That being said, there's something about that pose that feels more romantic than sisterly to me, and the bottom girl's hand on her forehead looks odd to me.

Thank you! I'm still learning. Shooting people was always the most difficult thing for me to do so I've been trying to push myself outside of my comfort zone. I never would have guessed it would end up being my favorite thing to photograph haha
