Couple new shots

[12sndsgood]

So I got these a couple weeks ago. was working with the heavy sun in the background hazy effect for the family shot and then going for more of an old time feel for the second shot. I know I still have work to do on the two but let me here your guys opinion.

I think they are both great! The only nit I have on the second is how close the frame is to the bottom of her foot. I'd like to see another 1/4 inch below her shoe!

Thanks. One of the big things I noticed with this set and the one earlier in the day I did was going in too tight. Trying to get in close to cut my cropping time down but noticed I was getting to tight and losing some shots. So I walked away from this day with a new goal of going a little looser with my framing.

Is there any way you could have shot with the sun at your back? The haze really detracts from the photo. Also, I've found that placed my hand infront of my lens (well, above and infront) to cast a shadow on the lens is a quick and dirty way to significantly cut down on the haze when shooting into the sun. Not the most convenient, but it works.

Haze is the new trend with clients!!

You can keep the haze and make it appear a little sharper if drop the blacks a little.

Thanks gh. I will give that a try and see how that works out.

Well, mission accomplished.

These photos do nothing for me. I can see potential in the second shot, but the first shot? Not so much.

Haze is fine, I suppose. Like anything else, though, it can be overdone...

im with steve on this one.
pose wise, I like these. im just not personally a fan of the hazy/desaturated look.
if the haze was to the degree that YOU wanted it, then i would say these pictures were a success.
