C & C please. Weekend shoot with friends.

It's been a little over a week since I had my camera and I am loving it. Here are a few from my weekend session with a friend and her family.

First of all, I'm a newbie, so this is purely newbie talk. Second, that little girl is adorable. I really the first shot, but it seems like it needs more "pop" to me...

back up. You are filling the frame, but if you friends want an 8x10 there is a problem with all but #3. You will lose 2 inches off the long side of these photos... That's a big chunk of people.

They are ORANGE. You need to calibrate your monitor.

Your exposures are very nice, your focus looks great. Your fill flash shows a little in some, but it's not bad!!!

The first one I got while photographing the parents in the back. The little one didn't want to take a picture so when she started picking dead flowers in front of her parents, I quickly adjusted my Aperture and Shutter Speed and that was the result. I am still trying to improve my editing.

 

[MrsLittle]

Should I be cropping under a certain ratio? I didn't even think about the printing adjustments. Now I'm a little worried they might not have a good photo to print.

About the orange...The sun here in Turkey is really red around sunset, so they came out an orangey/yellow tone in lots of pictures, except when their back was to the sun.

They have good photos to print, they just can't buy ready made frames at the convenient store to frame them. That's all.

This is why Jesus invented white balance.

 

[MrsLittle]

Thanks! I will definitely keep that in mind next time.

I think you just flipped the switch in my head, I should have took off cloudy.

Fix white balance problems in post processing. Why would you give someone photos where they're orange?

They look nice in my opinion. Good Job

 

[MrsLittle]

I guess I can get carried away, since I am more partial to the "warm" look and forget to incorporate the red sun into the equation, resulting in too warm of pictures.

Thank you Photo Guy. I liked before I posted them, now I find so much wrong with them.

I love Number one. Great capture and good job. Can you crop her hand back into the photo?

Thank you Flat. I wish I could, but this was SOOC, no cropping done to it.
