Hi All,
This is Mara. Attached is my latest portrait. I finished it this week for a client. I'm so excited to post my work for you to critique. I really value your opinions and feedback. It's one of the most important things I need to get better. So, don't hold anything back... please be honest and let me have it.
This portrait was commissioned by a woman who wanted to give her husband a father's day gift. The trickiest part about this whole project was that I had to come up with a concept and a layout using only the few photos she had laying around the house. We couldn't do a photo session with him because it would ruin the surpise. So, we came up with the idea and took a bunch of photos of her and the kids at a park. In his pose, he's actually in his living room playing with his baby daughter on the floor. Thank God for Photoshop.
