I like the set. Fun couple. Good expressions. I like the style, and it's consistent.

#1 and #25 come out on top for me.

There's just way, way too much tilting action going on here for my taste.

Your exposures are great, your editing is good, your content of emotion, expression and feeling is phenomenal.

But the tilt just gets in the way and hurts of all of that. Based on your post history I think you might be new at this. I did a lot of tilting my first year shooting because I didn't understand how to compose a photo. The good news is you've got so much of the hard things right. Now you just slow down a little get the composition under control and fight that knee jerk reaction to twist your arms before clicking the shutter.

On a side note there may be a chance you can fix the tilt by enlarging the canvas in photoshop and then use content aware fill in the empty areas and then re crop to straighten. It might work.

Thanks for the reaction,
I will work on the tilting style. It is indeed sometimes to much. It will not be easy because it is sort of a habit. Sometimes i look through the lens like a graphic designer instead of a photographer.
Just follow the horizon and don t twist the arm, got it

I know what you mean when you say its a habit. That's why I said knee jerk reaction. I had to consciously stop doing it. What also helped me was really analyzing the work I was really impressed with and picking out things about the image that I liked, whether it was composition, lighting, posing etc. Then when I worked with my next subject I tried to remind myself at least 3 times during the shoot (or more) to try to pay closer attention to those elements and incorporate them into my shot.

What is really awesome though is you've got great light, editing, and energy in practically all of these. If all I had to work on was my composition at your stage I might be driving a nicer car right now.

Indeed the tilting is a very easy fix when everything else is good

Tilt was so 5 years ago... I got dizzy.
Exposure were nice. Good emotions.
If the clients booked you for your tilt, your golden.
