On a couple shots (i.e. wood panel background) the sepia makes it look period (from that time). But the others need color, without the flesh tones and pastels of the garb it doesn't do your shots justice.

The first shot would have been fine in B&W.

Considering the modern achitecture of the setting, color may have been better for the others.

Sepia works best when you are trying to give something a very old feel, like 50-100 years old.

The subject matter itself has to support that suspension of disbelief if you are going to use an effect lilke sepia.

I agree with you for the most part, but I wonder if it wouldn't be best to give the entire set the same treatment.

I could probably go for that.

No, I mean a "choose one and stick with it" type of approach. To do otherwise kind of feels like the "artist" putting his "craft" before the needs of the "client."

Wow, that was way too many "quotation marks" for one post. whew! Sorry - good wine at dinner tonight.

I wouldn't "worry" about it.
