My first family portrait session

Not new to photography, but new to portraits. All were taken with my 5D classic and 85mm 1.8. Edited in LR5, some have a little photoshop. Let me know what you think!

Like all of them but the third. The only issue with the third is you have neither of the subjects faces in the image. While it is a great candid shot, it does not really qualify as a portrait for the subject. While I am sure the family will like the image, because neither of them is actually fully in the image, they wont "Love" it.
On the first image, you might work on diminishing the wrinkles around mom's eyes. Don't take them away completely, but maybe do a 50% opacity spot removal, so they are still there, but not quite as obvious.

Thanks for the feedback. Good call on the wrinkles, I will def work on that one just a bit more.

While I never completely remove naturally occuring "flaws" like wrinkles and birth marks. I will in most cases at leat diminish them somewhat.
And if they happen to have a break out, bug bite, small cut or the like that is not normally there, I remove them as these are not things that you would normally expect to see on them. I had one young lady who wanted to cancel an already scheduled shoot due to "The Mother Of All Zits", her words not mine. I had her take a quick selfie and send it to me so I could see what we were talking about and it was in a great spot on her cheek. I told her that it wouldn't be a problem and I easily removed it in post. If it had been right on her lip or some place that might be a little more difficult to edit out, I may have rescheduled, but being right in the middle of her cheek, there was plenty of room to edit it out.

I always use fill flash outdoors so the faces do not have so much shadow in them.

Ron, good advice on the wrinkles. I to do not like to take out the "flaws", and I like your idea of make it not so obvious. Would you mind showing us kinda what you are talking about? Maybe show a before and after? What are your steps in photoshop to do that?

When I get home this evening, I will see what I have that will demonstrate, but here is a basic walk through.
I actually use Lightroom for a majority of my editing. When I find an item I want to diminish, I use the spot removal tool and I typically use heal instead of clone since it does a better job of blending. I then lower the opacity of the tool to anywhere between 50-100%. You can reduce the imperfection at the 50% range, or remove it at 100% range. It is all about keeping the change subtle. Blemishes get 100% to remove them, beauty marks get the 50% or so to lighten them, but not remove them.
I will post later with a few examples.

Good job. Youdefinitely get it. Are #2 and 4 a little out of focus?

Thanks! No they are both tack sharp, but I am using blogspot to host and it isn't the best quality. Flickr is blocked at work otherwise I would use that...

Good photo set, the last one of the little girl is great and her eyes shine in it. My fist thing I notice is removing some of the red of dads face in 1.

Thanks! I was def a fan of her bright blue eyes. Yes, I went back and made that change and I agree, it is a little distracting.
