p.1 #1 · First paid gig? Need some feedback on portraits?


Hey All,

Just shot my first paid photo shoot. It was a family gathering and I thin it went great. Anyways, I wanted some feedback on two black and white portraits. Let me know what you think!

Shot on Canon 5D Mark III with Canon 50mm 1.2L

I really like these.

1 might be cropped to a portrait orientation and a bit of a shame the child's right arm was cut off in 2 but a great capture nonetheless.

1 is a very nice shot with a bad crop IMHO
2 I like the subject to "lead" into the picture. If she was on the other side of the frame I think it would work better. As is I am led to her eyes then to the right arm then out of the frame.

My 2 cents

Iron sharpens iron

Something like this would be my suggestion. Please let me know if you'd like me to take down the edit.

Best,

Chuck

Looks nice.....I bet you could kick up the curves and levels adj. a notch and make it pop a bit more. Ad a pioneer woman "quick edge burn" action with a low opacity and you'll have a winner
