Photo Shoot

I shot these just for a test shoot. What do you think about the basic ideas?

There are several styles to look at. Thanks

You are asking a lot of people. Better to post a few examples and ask what people think.
I didn't see anything that really appealed to me.....sorry.
My strongest impression is that they have no pop. I hope I haven't hurt your feelings, but I want to be honest....
Portrait style photos should not be displayed in landscape orientation.
Cropping should not be done at a joint.
Try posting a few and let the folks here critique them for you. It will save you a ton of work.

I love the set but you really need to add something to the shots to make them jump. Looking through the first few little fill flash would have worked wonderfully. Even the toned images do nothing for me. Not sure how the sunlight was but even getting someone to hold a reflector would have added the right amount of light if it was available, imo.

To be brutally honest these come up a a little short of being good. Even trying to make them better in photoshop, although it would help, would not still make them to the point to where i think they could have been. I didn't go through your whole gallery and you are much better off picking a few to get critique on.

I agree, you should post a few. Usually when a post has not many or no responses its because people don't want to take the time to follow a link and wait for pictures to load.

I got through maybe the first 10 before I got tired of looking, sorry.

Most of the images I saw were too dark and not totally in focus or sharp. They could really benefit from some PP to brighten them up and make them pop.

While I agree than many of the ones I look over were sorta flat (try a hair light maybe?), the thing that nagged at me more was the models. I know you can only work with what you got, and all 3 are attractive, I just didn't feel "connected" to them at all. There was a certain lack of energy. Luckily, this could be as easy to fix as just playing music while you shoot, or getting someone to play the clown over your shoulder... Solid effort though, and you do have some keepers in there!

I think the greatest errors are in posing, lighting and post processing.

I'm definitely not a pro, but IMHO just in looking through a few of the images in the gallery I kept thinking to myself I wish they were brighter.
The location for the photos is very suitable and with a bit more light in the photos and you would have some really good shots.
