Nice job, Deannda. I agree with the comments below both about the backdrop (for me, this is the only niggle) and the great lighting. Love how natural they both look. The colors of their shirts set off their faces - nice!!
Very fun...great lighting and composition...but I do have to mention the chopped-off arm and foot (I'm sure others have mentioned it so I won't go on). ;) Overall it's really cute and different from all the boring headshots. 7 if I could vote! :)
the girl underneath doesn't look very relaxed.
it looks like shes trying to get up.
she looks awkward.
the girl on top looks a lot more comfortable.
i think if they were both relaxed and comfortable then the picture would have been more effective.
There is a bit too much going on. The girls look nice and natural, but because of the busy pose and strong colors, they would have been better off on plain colored background.
I like the colors which go well with their playfulness. Also this looks and feels professional. My only issue is the pose of the girl on the bottom. Not really sure what is wrong perhaps it's because her arm and foot isn't in the shot? Maybe having her in a similar pose as the other one would work better?
Great poses and happy pretty kids...only distraction are the feet in the back of the shot that look uncofortable up against a wall (?) Also, the focus seems to be on the girl in pink...perhaps a smaller aperture would have had more of the shot in focus. Well done though, hope you do well with this...
Very sharp. The girl with the reddish hair does not look as natural as the other one in her pose. It looks like she is straining a little to stay in that position. Both of their faces are very natural tough and colors are excellent.
