First time: Senior portraits

StueveShots

I had to remove the pictures...my apologies. But I do appreciate the comments that you both made and I will keep working on it! I am not a professional, nor will I ever be...but it is always good to keep working at improving!

Bryce Wilson

Seven is my favorite. It evoke emotion within me.

One is too harsh for my personal taste. Doesn't mean it's bad, just a personal taste thing with me.

Two is a nicely done flare shot. I bet she loves it. As a side, I know this (flare shots) is the new "thing", but I'm an old fuddy duddy and to me it's not new, it was done a lot in 70's porn.

Three I like a lot. Just wiSh that sunflower just to the right of her head didn't compete with her face.

Four, Having just worked with the "chair thing", I think the back of this chair overpowers the girl due to it's size. The lighting and colors are quite nice...like a sunset.

Five, again too harsh for my particular taste.

Six, I really like this.

Seven.... WINNER, WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER!!!!

Hackbone

#1 looks a tad over exposed and she is broad lit which makes her face broad. You are looking down her blouse.

I really like #2 but the pose is stagnant, turn her a tad and that will slim her down.

3 is cute but pose is stagnant again. Also in 2 & 3 girls have shape so bring the elbows out from the body to show the shape and this also slims the body if they're not large gals.

4 is a nice photo of the chair.....where's the girl.......It would be nice cropped for a head and shoulders or turn the chair around and show the body in a pose.

5 broad lit again and a bit close.

6. is cute and fun.

7 was this a best out of 3 match? If you had a purpose that is ok but its lost on me.

Not trying to be mean but helpful....Got to know the rules then they can be broken with a purpose. There is a lot to think about when photographing a client.
