Here are some of my favs from an engagement shoot this weekend, I would love to hear some feedback on these images, good bad, processing, etc. Your comments are always appreciated!!

Most of these were taken in the Presidio in San Fran and a couple down at Baker Beach.

Almost all were shot with the 50 1.4

#2 was a 580exII to camera left at 1/4 power triggered via Elinchrom Skyport.

This may be terribly inappropriate and I'm sure that I'm going to get educated about how special and spectacular this "thing" is so it can't be cropped out without ruining the essence of the photo... but whatever is coming up under the railing in #3... it looks like a giant pair of breasts or a rather large backside. I feel really stupid saying that... but I think that photo would be great cropped under the railing.

I like them all but #2. It just looks hard and angry and not very flattering on their faces, IMO. #1 is really nice. #3 I like the framing, and I could tell the shape was a heart.. It looks a hair on the cool side thou. Love the ring shot. Nice work.


I am super cool n' stuff.

I thought the same thing when I saw that photo :confused:
