I took these last night just before going out and then played around in lightroom this morning. They were all took with a single off camera flash.

I just wanted to get some feedback on the pictures and maybe which one you like best.
It's probably more a review of the lightroom work as a lot of changes were made from the original shots.

It's my first attempt, hope you like them! Thanks!

Nice work for only using a single flash. I think I like the first and last shots best of them all. The second to the last lacks pop and just seems dull to me.

Oh, and beautiful wife btw. :)

First one for me. With 1 flash, very good work.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback.
I think the first is my favorite too.

First one is best by far.


"High Key" is NOT overexposed, and "Low Key" is NOT underexposed.

The 1st one is the best, don't think i understand the difference in skin tone in #3 though.
