Congratulations to Lisa_Holloway for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 2 votes - View Previous Winners
I hope I'm not boring you all to death with these! I loved my fall clients this year and have been excited to share a few. As I'm sure I'll get another predictable 'backlit kid in a field' comment, let it be known that this is a look that clients hire me for, and I am not about to turn down a good paycheck that will feed my kids doing something that I love doing - no matter who doesn't like it. Period.
That said, this is a long one and thanks for looking. I loved the joy and happiness that emanated from these beautiful people.
IMO, you have an absolute MASTERY of light, Lisa. And obviously, your post-processing skills are equally amazing. Great moments and poses here. Top notch session! Voted :-)
as an aside, these images make me long for living somewhere other than Florida. There's just no color here aside from green, dull yellow, and brown. BLEH
One either likes Lisa's style (processing and posing) and engagement with her subjects or dislikes. I am a fan. Bravo, Lisa. I would love for people to walk into a room and say, "Hey, that's a GoodEgg!" when they see one of my portraits.

You've established your brand and have absolutely perfected it. You'll never please everyone. I wouldn't even bother paying any mind to it.

Thank you!! @Jonathan@, I lived in Florida for a few years way back when I was in the military. I remember it being very humid and very flat. lol
Your memory serves you well :-) A highway overpass = Florida Mountain.
These are glorious, Lisa! #7 slays me. Hard to pick an absolute favorite, but the last few with the southwest mountains in the background are jaw-dropping!
Haha... "backlit in a field"... I resemble that remark. I think I am becoming famous.
FWIW, I never said that they weren't nice. In fact, in a recent thread I stated that you have, in fact, mastered this technique.
It is just that I like it when you get out of your comfort zone (as you seem to have with most recent posts). Example here are the candid kids playing with leaves.
Keep trying new stuff, it is what pushes us to new heights.
