1




2

For me shot 1 is the better photograph but the family will likely prefer shot 2.

*LOL* DARN IT !!! That is why I come here !!! Maybe to confirm what I think I already know...

The second images was taken first.

The first images is showing the true love and connection between a father and his daughter as the mother smiles.

I am going to present the family with a 16X20 so I was really torn between an image that tells a story or one with happy faces *L*

Thanks for taking time to comment

No prob.
at 16x20 shot 2 is a better choice as the baby is quite soft in shot 1. family should be very happy with this.

I have to agree. Shot #2 to show their faces and smiles. Very cute family! Lovely colors through out the photo!

[JAS_Photo]

I agree! And boy don't you wish you could do more photos with the whole family dressed up like this?

Shot 2 is my choice

I'd print both. Give them shot one first, if they frown, whip out shot two I''m with Marko on both points.

I think the better exposure and the smiling faces in shot 2 will win them over. If shot 1 was brighter around the fathers head I'd have gone for that one also but for me shot 2 is the better shot exposure wise at least. The look on the baby's face is better also in shot 2 imo.

Good critical eye there MA, Both valid points.
