Allyson and Dustin, very cute couple

[LeesaB]

two more

[LeesaB]

and two more

[bcap]

Hey Lees!

1. Interesting angle. It sort of makes me dizzy though.
2. I like this one a lot. But, like I said in the chat thread, I am a sucker for flare.
3. Not bad, looks OOF though.
4. Very nice shot. I like it. Looks a little underexposed though.
5. Nice. I don't like the angle though, I would have probably gotten more on top of them. I don't like the PP either, it's very unflatering to her skin and her hair looks like a really weird color.
6. OOF.

Lisa - nice job :)

I really like the one with them holding hands (numbers please!) and walking away.

I also love the one of them on the grass with him kissing her, though the PP isn't my favourite ever.

On my screen the skin looks too saturated/red/orange on the last shot by the fence, otherwise a nice shot (wish he had his hand on her hip or something, but that's him).

[Kathy H]

I like them a lot!

I think you did a great job!

[Cujo_34]

I really like #2 with the blue but thinking if they share their engagement photo with others for whatever reasons that #4 fits the purpose pretty good -- great invitation type pictures I think.

[MrsOpie]

I like #4 and #5. I would have liked #1 if the crop wasn't as tight and if the flash wasn't as harsh.

[drogos]

pretty much what bcap said and i have to add one more thing:
#2 what's the point of silhoute picture if they look into camera ...you know that they look at you but you can't see the faces .... i would love to see it with them looking at each other

Thanks Bryan, you know I appreciate your CC. I still have work to do, but I'm learning!

yes, I do agree, it did show up on here really red/orange, I can change that, I'm not so sure it's OOF, but just not adjusted correctly.

I like them a lot!

I think you did a great job!

Thank you Kathy!:D

Thanks Mrs. Opie, Do you think it's the flash or just my adjustments on the BW?

Very true, It was not planned, so it just kinda happened as they sat their, I will remember that for sure next time!

[jessiper]

You're trying new things, and that's great! I can't comment on the editing because I'm on my laptop...#4 & 5 are good, and #2 is interesting! Keep working at it, you're getting better!

[LeesaB]

Thanks Jess, I've been trying to watch the threads and pay attention to what others are doing...learn from what they do, practice on images I've had here, and keep learnng..

[notapro]

Lisa, I think these are great! Same thoughts as Bryan & drogos, except that #1 doesn't make me dizzy. I love that pose and angle. 1 and 4 are my favourites.

[LeesaB]

Thanks Amanda..

It proves there is hope for anyone out there trying, LOL.

NIce job

[JJacula]

#1, very unique angle, really shows off his eyes.
#2, wow, that flare is blinding! Cool experiment ... wish her sweater wasn't white!
#3, cute, but the focus fell on their sweaters rather than on their faces.
#4, LOVE it!
#5, really like it!
#6, they look OOF, looks like focus fell on the gate/sidewalk - but might be compression issues.

[restech]

Agree on drogos' comment on the silhoutte picture.
Also the others' comment on the oof.

I don't like # 6, not only because of oof, but the composition also is not pop.

I like # 1, it's a really different angle. Like it.

[Toogy]

Lisa, I think you've shown great improvement with this series, I pretty much agree with what everyone else is saying for the CC, so there is no point repeating it. Good Job overall!!

[LeesaB]

Thank you Sir Jeff!

Thank you, and yes, I am tending to agree on that image

[arch1tect]

Good Job Lisa, I agree with all the CC as well.

[LeesaB]

Thanks Michael!:D

[sblais]

#2 reminds me of the movie Platoon, for some reason!

Great job in general!

In #3, I wish the hand would take more of the frame than that. I see what you are trying to do, but I find it's not quite there yet.

Thanks Seb, now I have to watch another movie, LOL Platoon?

Thanks for the C&C I appreciate it.

[sblais]

Oups, I actually meant the movie Cocoon, not Platoon... Here's the poster that your picture reminds me of:

[LeesaB]

OOO now, I can see how that does...interesting.

[gheesom]

I like these, still work needs to be done...esp on the OOF ones, they look very relaxed with you ahooting them

[LeesaB]

Thanks Gareth,

OOO I have few that went right to the delete can, so stiff, and she even said, "this is so hard with people watching you" LOL..but they did finally warm up. they were a fun couple

[david888lee]

good composition

i just had an interesting idea haha. what if for the third picture (the one with the groom putting his hand in front of the camera), you focused on the hand, and the groom and bridge were blurry.

[LeesaB]

Interesting idea, but I think the subject would be the hand then..not the couple...but generally, that's how mine come out. This one I purposed (cuz I saw it somewhere else) to do it that way,
