Greeting from Critique Club

Hi, I think that is a good photograph. From compositional point of view I would more space on the right. The people on the background, on the right side, is a bit distracting but probably could be used as compositional element if the cropped girls on the right would be entire(with a bit of more blur on the background). I like the pose of the models and I would that be a candid photo. the sepia tone work well in this photo.

For any question about this comment please contact me.

I love the moment that you caught, but the bright white square in the background keeps distracting my eye

Very sweet, emotional picture. I think a little tighter crop might have made this shot even better.

Nice candid. The figure just clipped on the right is a bit offputting though.
