- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
I saw these photos before, but failed to comment on them....A couple of things I'll say, the first being that I agree that a vertical frame would look much nicer on most of these shots.
The other is that the background is kind of dull. I know you didn't have a lot to work with - I know the feeling! If you're serious about portrait photography, invest in a cheap lighting system. If you want a 'pure' white background, you can point one of your lights at a white(ish) backdrop and let the flash fire as bright as it can. It'll essentially overexpose the background making it as white as bowronfam3's edit. 'course it won't quite make your model as nice as his edit, but you'd be surprised how far it'd go.
Keep at it...these look great.
