My second maternity shot

[tropico]

I had my second maternity session yesterday, and it was really hard to get the photos I wanted.
Wanted to get some really nice outdoor photos, but by the time we got out it was allready too dark.

Oh well, I learned. I will never schedule a session that late again. I was hoping for a beautiful sunset, that is why I wanted it late. Instead I got rain and dark clouds.

Ok, here is my attempts.

C&C welcome!!

I like the concept you were working with in #2. I also like the how you handled the weather conditions with that image. The tighter shot works better than the wide angle in #1.

I would have like to see her chin raised so she was looking out, or to the side instead of down.

Overall, I much prefer the outdoor, clothed maternity portraits to the typical ones we see all the time. You're definitely on to something there. Keep going at it.

I enjoy 2 & 3 the most. I Would have cloned out that orange light though in 3.
#1 is a bit too much, would have preferred a tighter shot.
#5 I am not too fond of the crop right at the necks, I tend to try and keep them away from necks/joints.
#4 I like the pose, and crop. Treatment isn't bad either, helps with the skin tones.
