Title: 1st assgmt - my style
Post by: Evie on February 26, 2011, 08:50:02 PM
mish mash :) I think I didn't figure out what's my style. I like when pictures tell the story. I don't like pictures "sit and smile to the camera", I like when something is going on. I have tons of ideas but not enough technical skills :( I hope I'll learn from you guys! :)
Few of pictures which show (?) who I am

elaine, JFlash thank you!
I hope to learn from you guys! I didn't know there is a special name "candid photos" for what I like :) Good to know! :) I think it's easier to take this "candid shots" with the little ones (younger), they don't really care if I have camera.
I was wonder how is it for you guys? What age is the best to photograph?
When my son was few months old I couldn't wait till he get older, I thought it will be easier, nope :) Now I think it was such a great oportunity and I kind of missed it.

P.S. English (probably you noticed) isn't my native language, so if you have problem with understaning let me know :))

I think you vertainly have the technical skills - your photos are very lovely and I really like the 1st one. Such a normal, everyday moment that has captured such feeling. Good job and can't wait to see more!

They are all very well done.  I too like the first one best.

I also love the 1st picture of the child peaking out of the window. The window lighting in this picture is great. I agree with the others that your style is more the "candid shot" then a sit down portrait pose.
