p.1 #1 · I am out of clever titles. Just look, gosh darn it!


Nother' e-sesh

Shot her sister's wedding in 2008. Good people. Good times. The usual. Used the Lastolite Ezbox a bit on this one. Liking it. CC welcome. Off to play some COD, peeps.

TIA

Just realized that said softbox is obstructing the far most region of this one. No need to tell me.

Nice set. Only a couple nit picks, just my non-pro opinion so take it for what it's worth

#1 crop feels a little bit off, maybe just crop from the left to get the couple further from the center.

#8 not too "flashy" but maybe you can bring up the shadows a little bit if it doesn't bring out too much grain. There is cut off fingers on bottom of the frame.

BTW I see you're in metro detroit, I'm over on the east side.

4 & 9 are great Adam!

I say yes to your ? on #8.

I started using the same softbox a couple weeks ago due to the wind eating my umbrellas. I prefer the umbrellas actually but the portability of the softbox is a win.

Thanks, Aron. I find the light out of the soft box to be a little nicer, but it is sort of intangible. I just like that it has less spill. Portability helps, too.

Stillresonance, Royal Oak here, dude. I guess there are a few Detroit FMers still around?

Cute shots, some of them seem a little soft, maybe compression.

I grew up in Detroit, but I've been in Charlotte for 10 years.

9 FTW. Some of them look a little soft-- web resizing w/o sharpening probably. Or could be my crappy work monitor.

Lots of good emotional connection with this set. #4 and 5 is my favorite. Yes, I think #8 is too "flashy". I think more ambient light would have improved that image.

Yes, it is becoming apparent to me that I am perhaps loosing a hair too much quality on my web downsizing. Thanks for the comments, all.

I've been so slow to comment!

2, 4, 6, 9 are my faves!

1 is really nice - I'm not a huge fan of flashed at sunset photos (no matter who does them - including Ed's or Tony's). I still take these shots because people want them...
I love 2, but I might like it a bit more if it was exposed about 1 stop lower. Nice use of light and composition

3 has some really nice expressions - I have a hard time shooting with the sun - I usually don't like the results - I think maybe these could be warmed up a tad?

4 is a really sweet shot - no crits!
5 has cute expressions and interactions ,but I can't get over that tree!
6 I love their expressions and the light -even if it was flashed. Not my style, but you pulled it off really well
7 is a tad too flashy for my taste. With this shot I think you would be better off either snooting your flash and only lighting them up, or lighting everything up equally. I also think it would pop a tad more with a slight increase in warmth. Great concept! They will LOOOOVE it
8 I like the concept - it's a tad too flashy and I think you need to warm it up a tad. Maybe that's a thing with me... Awesome shot though - I wish I came up with these concepts!
9 is really nice. I need to use ambient light more often in my night shots I guess the way you can add this to your next set is to bring the couple a tiny way away from the wall, then get their shadows in focus. That may be a nice way to build on this shot!
10 - nice ring shot! Very cute!
