[QUOTE="Will V|Photography, post: 36992, member: 7177"] Yes, I'm very new to this and I appreciate your thoughts and input. Anything and everything helps in my journey to be the best photographer I can be. The shots were more-or-less choreographed at the beginning but I'll elaborate more on that below. I'll also agree that #3 is my favorite, if not tied with #2 for the spot. 1) Yeah, I get that. I saw the field with bales and thought it would make a nice impromptu spot to stop. The power grid does kill it a bit, though. I tried keeping it out as much as I could. 2) I know. I didn't realize until after I got home and got them loaded up. Definite mental note for next time. 3) Agreed. He's a close friend and I could tell he was a little uncomfortable. It was also on the side of the road so he might've been a little embarrassed as well. More discrete location with better backdrop in the works. I did give some direction but after a few of my "posed" shots (the kissing shot was one) they started playing around with each other and I kind of stepped back and let it roll. She's super comfortable in front of the camera and I thought she might loosen him up a bit. Going to have to add some beers to the mix before the next shoot :p Hey, at least I got the "technical" aspects of the shots right. I'm glad there wasn't any negative comments on the PP either :D **Edit: Also, I forgot to bring my flash along as I was shooting something else that day and wasn't planning on a portrait session. These were all backlit with natural light and brought around a good amount in PP. [/QUOTE]
