Hello! Been a long time since I've posted here. Been slowly moving into shooting more portraits in the interim and am looking to get your thoughts on two of my most recent images. C&C is greatly appreciated!
1)
2)
My thoughts:
1)
While I like the lighting, I'm not too keen on the pose. In hindsight, I should have asked her to turn slight more away from me.
Also, having downloaded the images I noticed that the focus point was slightly in-front of her eyes, but not too far that it made the image unusable.
Again, only afterwards noticed she had a hairband on her wrist. Next time will make a note to check outfit before shooting.
The leaves in the bottom left of the image are also slightly distracting - but cant really be helped. Cropping would cut the hand.
2)
This is by far my favorite image of the two. Struggling to find anything that bugs me with this one. What do you guys think?
