 My first paid portait session.
I love the eye contact in this shot, to me she is looking straight through the camera.
Taken with the trusty 50mm 1.8.

Can't wait to do more portaits.

Very good picture, the best part is in eye contact. Looking forward to see more portraits from you.

In principal, I hate baby photos. But this one is great. Excellent capture of the "eye contact"

Great shot, however, I don't think the border wqas necessary. In fact I think it is a bit distracting. Love the difference between the full on eyes and the cast away eyes and the in focus vs out of focus. Good job.

The "aspect ratio" crop is cool. It makes this seem like a movie. Really gets your mind to working. I am definitly going to learn from this shot.

That's good, looking at the camera, wide screen is something I am comming to terms with...
