While it may be an overused concept, it's those concepts that people always ask for. You just gotta shoot em lol. When doing shoots like these, bridals or e-sessions, it's VERY hard to do a whole shoot w/o relying on cliche shots for some of them. It's just the nature of the beast lol.
CC per images
#1 did you purposely add a softening filter the image? It looks fairly soft around his face and arms.
#2 yeah, yucky nail ruins it for me too lol.
#3 cliche' but cute idea (especially if the client asks for it), but the white balance is REALLY off on this one. Yellows everywhere.
WB is off on #'s 2 and 3. Agree #1 is soft. For me, a tighter crop on #1 would work better, baby's face kinda gets lost in the vastness. Nice to see you back, btw. :thumbup:
