Portraits are a new thing for me, it is something I haven't had much practice with. But I decided to try and do the best I could. The first picture is of my youngest niece and my sister (her mom). She is about 5 months old and so cute. I wanted to get a picture that focuses on her eyes. To edit the picture, I added a small vinette, and warmed up the picture. The next couple of pictures I just wanted to capture them being happy and enjoying life. They were taken in Island Park while we were enjoying the weekend as a family. The Big T one I didn't edit but I consider it an environmental picture because that little boy(my nephew) has been riding on the four-wheeler for most of his life, and he loves it. The one called Melissa was edited by changing the levels, the contrast, and a photo filter to warm it up. Also I added my favorite... a vinette. The Happy girl picture, I was really trying the fix the poor quailty of the light and make her eye color better. So to edit it I fixed the curve, the levels, exposure, brightness, and exposure. Also I added a photo filter to warm it up. The last picture, I wanted to get a group shot. The only thing I did to edit it was desaturate it to get the lighting to look better, and add pops of color!!

I Absolutely love the face she is giving you in the first picture... such a personality. You also used great space in the photo, using the 1/3 2/3 rules.
i really like your pseudo black and white on the last image. and the portrait with the leading lines from the cabin. Looks like you had a fun weekend!
The first photo has a really good focus. You directly look at the ig eyes, and then look at the person holding the baby. The picture makes you want to know what the baby was thinking about you taking the picture. Good job!
I really like the angle on the third picture, of the boy on the four wheeler. Then the one right after that, I love the personality that you captured!
I like all of these shots. But my favorite is the one of the baby! It is classic baby face captured! Great job!
