Well my soon-to-be Aunt wanted some shots of her for the newspaper, but my uncle wouldn't get in the shots with her...camera shy I guess? Anyways for the fact I couldn't get him in...how do these portraits look?

I know he can be a party pooper when it comes to pictures! But thanks guys!
I know it's too late now, but one thing that may have worked would've been if they were hugging and you could see her front and his back... I had to do that once with "mr sqinty"... there was a lot of sun and a lot of snow to reflect it, no matter where we stood, (we were in the shade) and he could not open his eyes... so I took several of his profile and the back of him, incorporting his fiancé into the shots forward-facing.
I like your photos, but not really appropriate for an engagement listing in the paper. I think people may think she is a little "full of herself"... not that I think she is, since I know the story behind it, but not everyone will know the story too.

There is NO way he would get in the photo no matter if it was just his pinky toe. haha! I tried!!!!!!
Heather I think your focus and composition looks pretty good overall but personally I am seeing a very strong blue and/or green cast in all of the images.
I noticed the color cast as well.

I noticed it too but I couldn't get it to go away, it was either too warm or this.
Is the color cast fixed now?
Heather I think they look much improved. 10 of 47 still looks pretty green but it seems like she was standing under a tree, so I don't know if it's easily fixable. Good job.

Yah I kept trying on that one, but it went either too magenta or too green, this was the in between.QUOTE(Brandi Thompson @ July 12 2008, 04:36 PM)

By the way thanks for the help, I was so confused why those photos looked weird to me, but I had never played with WB before...I know terrible, still a lot to learn. Now I can pinpoint a lot of problems with my photos. THANKS!!
Those are very nice Heather! Too bad your uncle wouldn't get in... I wonder what he's going to be like on his wedding day?!
