Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
I'm sure past my first year of photography so might be just edged past the beginner stage but still eager for any kind of feedback i can get. Yesterday i ended up doing my first studio photo-session with a class i'm taking. Would love to get some constructive feedback before i bring them in to class next week.

#2 and #5 need to be rotated for the verticals to be straight.

#2's a cool idea, but it look a little too warm. It should be a little warm, but not that much.

I think #3's a little underexposed.

I'd really like to see some eye contact, unless you're going for a specific look or something.

I like the first one a lot. I did an (extreme) edit on it, hope you don't mind.

IMO:
#1: very cool
#2: like it
#3: a little too dark for me on the right side
#4: something about seeing all that white in his eye is distracting for me
#5: like it

Overall, I'd say they are very good. :thumbup:

nice edit. did you use ps? care to walk us through the post?
 
i'd love to know the post steps as well. reznap?
 
Sorry late reply.

Yes photoshop.
I embarrassed to say I ran this through a Topaz Adjust (something I never do) set for 'clarity.' I used the burn tool to darken the left side of the frame (more shadow on wall). I smoothed the skin a little bit with the blur tool, set for luminosity, think it was at like 20% strength, did a pass or two.

It's a messy edit, artifacts and stuff.. but I was bored from editing my own photos and I thought that one was really interesting. The biggest problem with the original is the lack of sharpness.
