I still need to remember to put these in practice in my sessions too.

I should have added that I do like my color treatment, I am always interested in how it looks to others though on different monitors-especially photographers. I assumed you might say as such about the background. I am mostly a lifestyle shooter, so I leave a lot of that kind of stuff in, but I agree with what you said about it not adding anything…[Read more]

It’s really a beautiful image… but… it could be improved. Her nose appears wider than it needs to. Bringing her nose just a bit to the right towards the light source could have sculpted it a bit more and defined the shadows more.

Grouchy mood are in no short supply with this 3 year old!

She has such beautiful blue eyes and they are really set off by the blue in her shirt. The bright yellow green in the grass really distracts me from her face. Cropping that out might be useful to improving the shot.There also seem to be more shadows than I would like to see in a “beauty” shot such as this. A reflector may have helped fill in the…[Read more]
