CC: Dyan Bridal @ the Cotton Mill, McKinney

Hi All,

My first critique on the forum so please play nice...but be honest. I always see something new to adjust or work on for the next shoot. I'd love some second opinions and additional help. Thanks in advance for your help.

#1 and #3 the lighting looks a little harsh, and in #1 it leads to some harsh shadows behind her. #2 I really like, but her left eye doesn't seem to be as sharp as her right, and maybe needs a little fill light to her right (left of the photo). Maybe more DOF with a higher aperture? Also, her arm seems really large. I'm not good with posing, but there I believe is a sticky somewhere on here with all sorts of tips on posing. Maybe if she was at a little bit more of an angle.

For a first post, I think these are really good. I really like the setting you chose for these photos.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, the Cotton Mill in McKinney is a gorgeous place to shoot.

Definitely agree with the setting. My fav of your set here goes to the 3rd one.

I feel that first one is a tad underexposed.

Nice photos.
