Hey guys! This is my first engagement session, but I have done plenty of other family type portraits. Thought I would share what I got. There's plenty that I can already see that needs to be improved. I need to work on my posing to offer some more variety, but they were super happy with these :).

I think you did a great job on these!

To me, the two photos with the couple looking at you, the guy doesn't seem to be making eye contact with the camera. Easily something that wouldn't be noticeable until after the session...and not really even your fault...some people are just camera shy like that. Perhaps you even did get some with him looking, just not in the set you shared.

Regardless...nice job!

Thanks for the response! He actually has a "lazy eye" in his right eye, so his left is looking to the camera, right is a little off...I guess it's something I could have corrected in post for "best results", but would probably be insulting to him, so I left it.

Gotcha. And looking closer, it does look like his left is on camera.

I wouldn't change it if it's him...and like I said before, the photos are great!
