Some friends asked me to take some pics of their family.

I thought they came out quite well but would appreciate any C&C.

I like the expressions on their faces as well as the poses. [nice direction!]

You have used the available light well.

Is the WB correct? I can't tell on this work monitor though.

I think they are excellent! The colours are spot on and the images are technically sound and creative! Bloody good job!

Great effort with some creative ideas your running with so well done.

To me the last 3 are underexposed If I consider the skintones. This can be fixed in post easily enough.The 2nd one also with the bub losing his hand / feet in the rug makes him look slightly deformed. That said, they are some great photos which I'm sure they will cherish.

Some excellent images! I like 2 and 3 in particular. Naturally looking moments.

Thanks for the comments guys

Thanks - well noticed!

Very nice set, I'm sure they will love them.

image 2 and 4 do look a little cold to me... I'd rather err on the side of warm portraits than neutral but my monitor is balanced for working in the day so my colours might be off.
Also... the last image, there is a colour merger happening between the lady's jeans and the males shirt/jumper... possibly bring him to the front of her legs or move him up with her top end.

Thanks for the feedback snaga.

I might have a play with the RAW files and see if warming them up slightly makes a difference.

Good feedback re the jeans/jumper as well - thanks

I really like number three. The posed shots are all good shots but the one with the bub upside down has real impact and looks spontaneous- it tells a story. Don't know if I completely agree with the 'underexposed' comment as I think you would blow too much of your highlights if you went any lighter. The rim lighting on the left arm adds a bit of class.
