For anyone who is looking, you will notice I am more of a people photographer, not really that interested in nature or inanimate objects.......and I do alot of portraits.....

westman, with that first picture, I was actually playing around with it in photoshop and just came out with that. That wasn't the intended result, so it wasn't something I was trying for. I just really liked the end result and saved it.

I know I am not as artsy and creative as alot of the people I have seen on here, I have seen such wonderful work, but I want to grow and be excellent.

I am really proud of this picture because it wasn't a posed shot, they were just interacting with one another and I took the shot.

really like the very last one you posted, i think it's the strongest of the bunch, and B/W helps it out too

I like the last one. It is very dynamic. My view lands on her eyes and it is transported to the object of her gaze and then on to the object of his gaze. And the object of his gaze occupies one of the rule-of-the-thirds sweet spots.

The horizontal is un level and while it causes me discomfort to a degree, I'm not sure how the shot would work if it were differrent.

I also like the 5th shot--the little girl. She is gorgeous. The fill light renders a gentle lighting ratio. I can imagine what this shot would have been had the camera angle been a more flattering eye-level-or-higher angle.

BTW, I've no doubt that your clients will be pleased with their wedding photos.

NytMair, thank you very much. I just really enjoyed watching the two of them interact with one another.

Thank you very much for your kind words. I agree with the image of the little girl, it was just very hard to even get a good shot of her, she is 2 and would not hold still to save her own life!!

Thank you very much for the comment about my clients and their wedding photos. I have never had a bride who didn't add more prints to her order. (as of yet) Cross my fingers on that one.
