Family portrait

I took a family portrait of my cousin and her family several weeks ago. It was only the second family portrait I have attempted. I had a lot of help from some of the POTN members when I posted a question in "Talk About Photography" section about exposing for my cousins husband white Navy uniform. They gave me some good tips that helped me. You can see more here.


As always, C&C welcomed.

Great series of shots Arty thanks for sharing they are bound to be happy with those

Thank you Stevie. She has seen them and she was very happy with them. That was a big relief to me

Art

Very nice, where in SA did you take them?

Nice series again Art. Very nice job on these.

Thanks rescue951. These were taken at the McNay Art Museum. It is probably one of the best place to take portraits in San Antonio.

Art

Thank You Dooglla. I'm still looking forward to seeing some outdoor shots from you.

Art

Very nice series. Love outdoor light. The exposures are very nice. Keepers.

Thank you Suzy. I don't have studio set up so all my portraits will be taken outdoors. I will still need a lot of practice with exposure. I have learned a lot here, which helps.

Art

Nicely composed. The mom and daughter shot is really sweet!

Thank Jeff for those kind words.

These are all nice. I especially like the first two family portraits- great expression and poses. Lighting is very flattering. Well done- I'm sure they are very happy with these.

Thanks Alan. Yes, my cousin was very happy with them. To me, that is all the counts.

Art

Sorry to disagree....

Art, I've seen your other work and I truly believe that you are better than these show.
The shots are ...."okay"... but they don't "wow" me.

I thought they were too centered. Although they don't look like snapshots, if you would have taken a little more time with them I think you could have produce better shots.

That said, at least the clients liked them, which is what matters.
