Hi everyone,

Wanted to share a recent shoot. I was really happy with these images, still working hard to improve. The two youngest kids did not want to touch each other for a shot with the two of them, hence the back-to-back pose lol. The older daughter was so amazing and had such wonderful connection with the camera! Mom was really happy with these.

I know they are balanced slightly differently in the different outfit sets; they organically ended up that way, and while my usual workflow would have me correcting to attempt to have them all match white-balance wise, I really liked the difference and let it be.

Your thoughts are always appreciated!

What's not to love about these images? Practically nothing. I will make sure not to mention the *hideous* nose ring that (IMO) destroys the images therein contained.

Petty? Probably. Just can't get past it. Sorry.

Otherwise, truly sublime.

Just fantastic compositions Dawn!!!
I too am not a "body art" person. Especially on so young a lady!
But it doesn't present a real problem for me!
The photography carries every image for me!

From my perspective (and I'm no expert:-)):

No issue at all with the nose ring, it represents her personality and looks good.

Your photographs have a consistent feel and a style that reminds me of oil paintings, fantastic lighting and composition.

I really like how you do both formal and also add informal (smiling) photography.

You clearly have mastered this style of photography and it would be great to see some of your other non-studio/informal work.

I'm a fan!

Most of them I like.

#1 and $5 come across as processed looking. #1 is pretty good though.

# 2, 3 and 4 seem better

Like the background a lot

The light and shadow on the daughter's face in #4 seems the best of any of the family out of all the images.

My only minor complaint is on #6 the older girl's sleeve is covering her left hand.

Otherwise, amazing work as always. I think your processing is spot on.

Every time you post, I think I'm going to just automatically vote for you for FTOW. I just can't help it.

Wonderful images, Dawn! They truly are images that people >50 years later would greatly appreciate they had that session done when they were little/young.
