4. Holly Steen (WPD Member & Contestant) - (8/4/2008 12:13:30 PM) I love the idea. The floral accents drawn in are a perfect elegance. The fun and color brings out the couples personality even without faces. Thank you for sharing a unique take on portraiture. I appreciate the thought being outside the box. I am sure your clients know that your work will be unique and fun. Yay!
3. Anna Lee - (7/28/2008 8:43:33 PM) I like the concept - green socks/shoes! - but I don't like the crop. Somehow, the photo without their heads looks incomplete! Shot might have worked if it was cropped closer to the feet.
2. Caroline Ghetes (WPD Member & Contestant) - (7/28/2008 6:11:00 PM) I LOVE the lime green in this photo and how you accentuated it! I think this is a photograph that the bride and groom will surely appreciate. I also like the color effects you used on this to give it a more antique feel, and it compliments the photo well. Not really sure if I like the floral accent borders. In my opinion, it's a little bit distracting since the photo on its own would have been more than enough. BEAUTIFUL shot!
1. ButterCake - (7/27/2008 12:36:40 AM) I love the flower pattern around the frame, however the photoshop is a bit inconsistent, as you can see some of the "art branches" don't follow the contour of the stairs perfectly.
