So I got a buncha shots of the little girl (what a cutie - didn't cry once! Although she didn't smile either so hmm not sure what's better!) and her step-brother. Annoyingly and unbeknownst to me, the boy had a habit of biting on his inner lip so the shots I thought I got of him, in reality I didn't.

Anyway, the pics are at:

Prob is I dunno which to present to the gran (who arranged the shoot). The ones I have chosen look great (in my opinion anyway) but like I say, I am stuck as to which ones that will make the cut. Should I just present all?

Help and advice appreciated please, as well as the usual C&C.

Thanks in advance!

I love the little girl...all of them. The boy...well, his shirt stinks but even that being said the ones with the white backdrop are good especially teh one with his right dimple showing...he's a doll. I don't like the black ones at all just because there's no light on the top of their heads. If they had some light up top they would turn out much better. I'm all for the white backdrop and good job....what was the girl sitting on...it looks squooshy. Too cute. Oh, and I love your conversions.

Correction: I do love the black backdrop with teh little girl alone. I had to go look again. Do you see what I mean about his head fading off into nowhere?

Thank you both :).

The flooring was actually hardwood/laminate i.e. slippery and so I put down a soft rug for the week ones to sit on. In effect I had to PS/dodge out the wrinkles on the floor - boy was that fun...

The hair does look like it disappears but (and without sounding jerkish) on my monitor (x-rite pro calibrated) you can still make it out so it may be that it your screen is a little dark/web gamut not wide enough to cover.

As said, thank you for your words but you have not made my choices of which to dump any easier! :D
