@cameraclicker, not actually shadows projected on the background, but the background is more in shadow on yours than the hired photog’s. I think it makes it appear as though the flash was a bit too intense. Really, either image works, it could be a matter of personal preference. I do prefer the shallower DOF, partly because it’s my style. I think the WB is more uniform in their image which is why I noticed it seemed more correct. I just don’t like to see blues in whites at all (I do get them sometimes, but it’s easy to lower the blue saturation in Lightroom which is what I usually do). Not that your image has much for blue though.
