Without even looking at the blog, you've got it all in these 3. Leading lines, framing, symmetry....Oh my!

Much intimacy in the blog set. Incredible work...

Hey Gabe,
I think their natural facial expressions don't lend themselves to some of these poses. What I mean by this is that I kind of think they look sad in these... I'd prefer smiles and laughter.

I checked out the blog and there's some better expressions there, but overall I get more sadness than romance in this set I think.

#2 seems over processed with too much sharpening in the hair.

On 3, I see that concept often on fm, with the couple standing facing the camera, but it may be good to see them interact, even if it is limited (due to the visual wall between them).

I also think 1 may be interesting if you make the composition more extreme by cropping some from the left and top.

Homeless? Did they loose everything - bar each other - in the 'credit crunch'?
Or was it a grieving photography shoot?

Nice aesthetic, but the message is a little dark - Tagg line; 'in a cold heartless world, we have each other'.

Hellish nice processing though. Thanks for sharing.

thanks everyone....

i find it interesting that some see love and connection and others see sadness and loss....but that is what's great about "art"...we all see things differently.

thanks again everyone.

Hahaha!
I know Chris. I met him on a plane and have been running into him constantly ever since! Small world.

I can see the photographer in him shying away from the lens. Too bad!

Yea, I'm with Tony...

I get "we just lost our crib in a flood" more than "our biggest day is coming up soon" in the feeling of these.

My thoughts.

Technically they are nice, as usual, but there is too much isolated sadness for me enjoy this set.

I for one don't think they look sad. Serious and sad are very different animals.

Those are certainly nice pictures, but the feeling I got was loss. loss of a mother/father.

I love the shots, but agree that they look more sullen than in love.

These are pretty good. I'm going to jump on the sad wagon here though, doesn't mean they're bad pictures though. I'd ditch the t/s in the holding hands shot in your blog. Really isn't needed IMO. My favorite is #1.

The shots are definitely technically great!
Their version of serious is very grievous looking to me too though. I actually got the feeling of losing a child by the way it looks like she's sad/angry and he's trying to comfort her.
I love the texture in the location of 3b and 1!

i guess it really depends on their personalities and how they interact, which you would know best. i think i see them as more "quiet" than "sad." have they seen any of them yet? do they like them?

but they're definitely interesting to look at. different from your typical e-sesh for sure!
