p.1 #1 · K + B: Engagement

The couple identified the strobe-over-sun look as something they liked and wanted to incorporate into their session, so this set deviates from my recent trend of mainly natural-light, and the posing is also adjusted to reflect the couple's particular tastes. The couple had wanted some autumn leaves in their session, and despite most of those leaves being gone by now, we found the very last of the fall colors on a row of trees near LP Field (home of the TN Titans). The couple have very different skin coloration, (olive Persian vs. ruddy Anglo), and I've tried to even that out a bit, but feel free to ding me there if I've drifted off course.

The skin color is a tough one but these are wonderful. Great looking couple and she is really something. Bet there is some spark and life to that personality.

Very nice set sir!

My quibble: I want 4a to have 4b's sky. You know it's do-able. You taught me how to do it. Why have you forsaken the sky smacking power of the 3200? Paul Buff is sad right now.

Really dig #6 and #8.

#9 - I can see your note about skin tone at work. I still think it looks good. Perhaps warm his skin up a tad more?

Haven't left a comment for a while and I won't be doing much of it for a bit due to a lot of weddings and albums.

It's a good set,but she's a walking orange. I just want to take a bite and eat it. That's how orangy she looks.
If you are using LR why not take that adjustment brush and set it to -30....yes -30. That will make her look tanned and not fruity.
For the groom go to hues,make a face selection,sample the skin and move the slider 3 points to the right. You can also try it in LR but that may not work

Only nit is that if you look closely on #1 you can't see any white in her eyes. Maybe you can pull it out with the adjustment brush.

Good work as usual.

I love them, especially #1! I sympathize with the skin tone issue. On my screen he looks a little on the pink/red side. But my screen is probably not 100% spot on.

Great shots, great poses, shows enough of the couple but still incorporates the surroundings.
Great looking couple
They will be very pleased.

Awesome set man. I really like the lighting in these. The leaves in number 11 are amazing - we have no color left here in NC.

Evan ....did you wait for 12:00am - straight up?

nice set. tough with skin tone difference. You handled it nicely.
I can see the Florida orange growers might get jealous of #7.

The wife gave a an, "OMG what a nice set".

There - a 2-for-1 post.....

Later,

1, 5 (pretty expression) and 11 are great, and 8 is my favorite. Can't comment on color as I'm on a horribly uncalibrated monitor. Mixed feelings about the bridge / red thingy growing out of his head in 7, could be a leading line, could be a distraction... can't say. A little surprised they hired you for the strobe-over-the-sun look when all your stuff in the last year and a half has headed towards classically styled portraiture.
