    Love, Florabella. That woman is incredible. I follow her on Facebook. I love her updates.

    I know exactly what you mean, I Hate Fauxtography. I didn’t mean that as a snarky defense. I was more referring to any time that I see a “fauxtographer” on this site attempt anything vintage and then fail miserably and get eaten alive in the comments.

    Stef, very valuable indeed! I see what you mean. Perhaps I was using my “daughter goggles” because that is my beautiful mother. 😉

    Since reading your replies, I went to calibrate my monitor and everything is in check. The “yellow” tint or “jaundice” mentioned earlier is a vintage inspired filter. Most of the people I shoot for ask for that “vintage” or “aged look” and so that’s what I used. These people were pleased with their photos but I see the “aged look” is sort of taboo here, lol. In fact, everyone I’ve shot for has never had a complaint and has always been more than satisfied with the final product. I know I’ve just thrown myself into the lion’s den for saying that. Of course I know I still have A LOT to learn. Again, I never claimed to be a professional. This is mostly fun for me. Like I said, I will apply what I have been told here to my future endeavors and I will never stop asking questions. Thanks again.

    You didn’t lose me. I am simply reading everyone’s feedback and taking it all in. I want to thank everyone for taking the time to skim through my albums and give me a thorough and honest critique. I will take all of your advice and apply it accordingly.

    I only wanted to point out a couple things. Archy, the shot you used to give an example of my outdoor lighting was taken inside. It was hung in front of a glass door. If you could give me another example so I could see what you mean, I would appreciate it.

    Stef, your response was very thorough and I thank you for it. Although, I’m not sure what you’re talking about when you say you’re looking at my “portfolio” album as none of them are named “portfolio”. All of my albums are named for the subjects. I can only assume that you misread “profile pictures”.  Thank you for your detailed descriptions of how each shot could be improved.

    I will keep studying.
