The "so close yet so far away" session
Here is a family session that has me going through a rollercoaster of emotions. I was elated to feel like I got a good connection with them so that the portraits feel less posed and a bit more genuine. However, I took a risk by opening up my ap too much and didn't get as good of focus as I would have liked. They should be sharper. Many of them are, but a handful fall short. I also had to compromise on some quality since the sun was setting fast and it was getting dark in the woods. This meant upping my ISO to a level that it a bit hard for my camera and I had to edit a lot of noise out of the photos. Finally, it was so yellow back in the woods that getting the color right was quite tough. So I'm very happy with the "moments" I captured, I just wish that I had done better with the quality of the image. So this is a live & learn...they aren't practice sessions for nothing....but the perfectionist side of me is quite deflated. Like I said before, very mixed emotions.
No, this isn't a photoshop miracle....the dad is ACTUALLY hanging from a tree like a flag. He's super strong and this is his cool human trick!
