I like these for the most part.
But, something doesn't seem right to me. I don't know if it's the saturation, exposure, or just the pp. (see #5 left shoulder)
Can't quite put my finger on what it is.

What did you use for the lighting?

Thanks for the feedback!
Lighting was actually all natural this round because I didn't have an assistant :( So it was probably the PP, but I really didn't do much to it. In the original it looks slightly blown out on that shoulder in #5, so that might be what you are seeing.

i like these. They are fun and colorful! my only nitpick i guess would be that the sunflare in #1 puts her nose outside the ring of the flare. not much to do there except have her lean just a hair back more! Did you see this flare while you were shooting?

:) Personally I'm happy that you can kinda see her nose because otherwise there would be no definition to her face. But I can see where personal preference plays a role there.

I imagined the flare being there, if that's what you mean. I had an idea of how it would turn out at least. :)

The problem with that is it would take a LOT of editing to do it. The aqua color of his shirt and her dress were actually rather vibrant. I'd have to go through and select each piece to tone it down.

Essentially the lesson learned is: Go with basic neutral or very low key colors from now on :lol:

#5 &6 are my favorites from the lot, the female model is perfect , the guy looks a little stiff which perhaps has a effect on the first few pics.

Yeah, I can't say that he was the most laid back. He wasn't easily to pose "naturally" So he has the same smile and pose in almost all the photos. Since I'll only be using a few of these for my portfolio I'm not really going to worry about it :)

Thank you for the feedback!

Would be a great set if you could tame the aqua saturation. Its just too much.
