Artist's Comments

I have posted a series of portraits I took of my sister. These pictures are my first real portrait attempts, and I'm pretty proud of them.


I'm angry at myself for not focusing perfectly on her eye. arrgh.

Thank you! I haven't even posted the second one yet haha! I actually don't want to flood my gallery with portraits, but I don't know much about the art so I'm posting my favorites (5-8 of them) to see which ones are liked the most.

I don't do much portrait myself but, I would say you have good reason to be proud. They look very well done. Keep it up.

Your welcome. My compliments to your sister as well. I'm sure it helps having a subject whose comfortable in front of the camera.

The brick background is nice and the pose is typical. probably because of the background. Maybe its because its your first picture (Not sure if you took it first though) but her shoulder needs to relax a little more, she needs to bring her chin down and towards you a little more and the hair in front of her eye bothers me but that just might be personal preference. Its not my favourite. but overall they turned out really nice for someone whose never had portrait experience. I mean you should see the pictures people take when they first start working at sears! I must say that I am impressed. (and a little jealous) but I'll be taking my sisters pictures soon!

She does look a bit tense now that I look at it. Yeah, this was towards the beginning. It was our second location. I didn't post any from the first as they weren't too fabulous. Thank you for all the compliments =)

Your welcome!
I understand what you mean by crowding your gallery. I always just try and only put by best up. Helps things alot and always makes you strive to be better. You do a nice job though! Keep it up!

No problem. Sorry I didn't have too much criticism. They turned out really nice. And it helps that you had a good model.
