Hello everyone!

I took this image during a photoshoot with my boss (Michael, Bambi's business partner). I actually captured this when Michael handed me the camera so he could set up another shot with this boy's brother and mom. The only shot I was able to take during the session, but I really like it.

I have two versions of the image because I couldn't make up my mind about which mood I like better. It's funny, I make decisions all day long about what to do with my boss's images, but when it comes to mine, it's not that easy. Perhaps it's because I'm not sure what direction I want to take this particular image. I like the moodiness of the low-contrast image, but not sure if it's what my clients will be into.

I'd love to hear what you all think!

Thanks for posting!

Personally I like the first one better, maybe with a bit more saturation and do some eye enhancements to make them pop.

Cute image.

I've got a shot of your boss, Bambi working on an image at a WPPI class published.

See this blog post and the pdf link there. She's on page 30

Wait, you work with Bambi? (I'm jealous)

I like number one. The skin looks cleaner and clearer...more angelic. I'm not sure if I think the moodiness works for his sweet expression.

Miss Tammee,

Glad to see you got a post up. Keep up the good work kid! I think i prefer the first one better; only cause i would like to see the second one a little more desaturated. Other then that....for only gettin one shot, its a great one to get.

Matt

P.S. heard bout the clothing deal (i.e. Jeanie) Just let that stuff roll off....Bambi can be full of herself! =P
