Some things to consider: 1. Too much hot spots. 2. Missed focus (specially the last one) 3. Lighting is far to harsh 4. WB seems off. Too warm? 5. Looks oversaturated Hope this helps! -d

I like everything about this - color, light, mood, pose, and PP! -d

It's not popular here - as you can see in the comments - as it is not the traditional headshot portrait. I have to admit that for my bread and butter work, 105-135mm is still my preferred focal ...

I like the photo and love that camera. You look very different from your profile picture too! -d

Thank you and good points. This was my challenge as well. If I show more of LA, then I get people in the shot. This makes it "messy" in different ways: (1) it will look like those tourist shots ...

CUTE!! GJ. I like it. -d

This is the point of the post. I do not and is reflected on my contracts. But, as is evidenced by this thread, not everyone shares this practice. I find it informative to learn about the practices ...

I actually agree with this. However, I am not sure if there is already precedent on its application to social media. We see our laws and their interpretation change as the technology so I am ...

Wow. Double-whammy being your daughter in law! I agree. Usually, I am (or my business account) is tagged. They can see the original there. This is something I need to look at. I am pretty vague in ...

Interesting analogy. I was thinking along the lines of my uncles and parents (this was before the internet/social media age) where they would crop and "frame" their wedding photos in weird shell ...
