I like the series, but I'd get rid of the fake heart you added in the 5th image. The hands do that shape already.

I concur. Maybe a tad too dark as well. I like the pose in the first one, but the pattern on the dress is very busy/distracting, best to go with solid colors, pastels and the like.

Thanks for removing the heart...lol Could you post that image without the heart for our view? I'm also going to comment on the selective colouring of the dumbbells... Why?? Technique is good, but I'd make it a total b & w shot. Some very nice shots here. Three and four are my faves. I think 5 is nice, but I'd like a little more fill on their faces...

Fixed and now to answer your question about the selective coloring.........I am trying to push the edge of my work and yes it needs more fill. I am trying to evolve my "style" to something no one else is doing, yes it may look stupid but it's only stupid till everyone is copying you :-p.

Here's another that you guys probably won't like

#5 is really my favorite from these. Gives meaning to the look of love.

Now without the heart, that image is wonderful... finding your style and pushing the edge is all very well, but the blue dumbbells just have no meaning to me... Oh well... I'm not your client, and if they like it, that's all that matters. Thanks for sharing

Thank you mr. bottoms. The blue dumbbells was to match her blue eyes and her son coming in 15 or so days will be a boy and blue=boy. Yes she also thought that heart pic I overdid was the jewel from the shoot. They are going to take that one to get a poster made. Thank you for your comments.
