Family Reunion Portraits.

Family Reunion Portraits. · 08:35 AM

I took a few shots at our family reunion last weekend. Any suggestions on cropping, PP, etc? I'm trying to figure out how to crop the 3rd shot of my aunt but I really like the look as is.

Nice series. I like very much the first one. The expression of joy is fantastic.I would just crop a bit above his head, like i post. For me, the #3 woks like an stranger's pic, someone you shot in a park or a street. The situation makes me feel she isn't your relative. But the expression is great.

Good observation. He'd about worn off the makeup but he was having a ball. Some folks in another forum thought it was a girl playing in dirt.

I like it but I guess I sortof like the 'stranger on the street' look of the original more. Maybe that is why I can't find a crop that pleases me. I've got a few closer shots that look similar to the crop that I don't like as much as this one.
