I really like the adult entry

Donna said...

These are both so pretty! I love the backdrop for the photos. They're uncluttered (inlike most of my photos) and you can really concentrate on the faces!

I love love love the lighting on the adult entry! Excellent!

Karyn said...

Both entries are wonderful, great lighting, focus, subjects, color. Your adult image is my favorite so far, I think it's really hard to get an adult to laugh and look great, she is just lovely, and the backdrop, the texture, is beautiful. Nice work!

Nice work like always.
