I may have landed my first "real" photo job with this little guy. I was walking around the park with my friend and girlfriend, and made an offhanded comment to mi lady about how cute he was. The dad heard me, saw all my camera equip, and asked if I wanted to take pictures of him for them. I snapped a few quick ones just as a preview, but I didn't have out the fill flash, which would have proved very useful.

These are what I sent to the couple to see if they want to hire me for a shoot with their son.

C&C appreciated, what could I do better next time? (besides fill flash?)

(#1 is my fav)

Good use of leading lines! Nice pics of the boy. Hopefully the parents will give you some business. Even if it's for some homemade cookies!

Good luck.

I love the first one but I think the 2nd one is a litte out of focus. Great job and cute kid too

I agree with the vignette as a bit distracting and agree that a B&W conversion would be nice. Cute little fellow.

I'll third that the vignette takes away from it. Maybe just a solid picture or a small solid border.

Very cute shots. I'm sure they'll love them.

great shots, but definately too much of the vignette, maybe it is was burned instead of dodged.
