This shoot was alot of fun. We found a few places by accident and they turned out to be nice surprises. I used some fill flash in a few of the alley shots but the rest are all natural light. We also had to deal with a pretty stiff wind the entire afternoon. I still need improvement so any advice appreciated. I love photography!

4. I found this alley by accident and thought I could work with the blown out background.

6. I have a few without the guy but to tell the truth I kind of like the dynamics with him in it.

    Really nice stuff.
    1/3/4 seem a bit underexposed, perhaps.
    I like the setup for 8, but I think you needed to be a bit more centered to get the arch nesting.
    I really like 5,7,9,11!

    Great job! I'm sure she's thrilled with these. :) I wish there were more facial expressions in the set, though, but she has such a beautiful smile! I really like #7!

    Nice set. #12 is the only one with accurate skin color though, imo - the rest are very, very red. More info:

    I agree, on my monitor the first few are so red her face matches the color of the bricks.

    Love #5. Looking at #6 I would never thought of that pose / angle. Great eye.
