I wanted to discuss a few photographs that I've seen online that I can't help but say are "terrible"
This pic is so odd to me. I don't understand why the boy is naked AND Russell is behind her. Remove the Lil Future and this pic is exponentially better. Remove Russell and once you put some clothes on the child it has potential. But all together it's something that I'd try to convince my client to change their mind.

Maternity pictures in general are pretty odd to me.... especially this one.
But im a guy
SOOOOOOOOOOO many women think shots like this are beautiful/amazing/artistic/ **insert adjective**

When I searched for the pic this morning I searched her maternity pics and the ones she had for her son and those were so much better but this one just comes off as odd
Maternity pictures can be so cliché with hands on the stomach, kissing the stomach, etc

I'm glad my wife didn't take maternity pics or any of those Anne Geddes-type new-born photos. Always creeped me out.

oh I totally could have.
The reason why I didnt this example is because of the depth of field plane was very horizontal so it made for easier cleanup to use the graduated filter.

Has anyone done or messed around with this type of editing/style?
I'm getting into surf photography and wondering what software is used to edit a still photo to animate the wave like that? Maybe After Effects?

IMHO the picture is just off because Russ is behind her, kneeling down and the head hidden behind her. Like whoever let that **** slide needs to give up his photography license. Trust me, I have argue with clients that want a particular photo that I took to be retouched and published or handed to them ... If I personally feel the picture is horrible like this .. Then is no ... Period.I wanted to discuss a few photographs that I've seen online that I can't help but say are "terrible"

The joint is just weird man. That could be anyone behind her in all honesty. If Russ was standing behind her embracing both or just the belly, it would make this picture at the very least viable.
The nudity or maternity picture aren't bad and does not bother me. If properly done they are timeless work of art. Nothing wrong with making a pregnant woman feel sexy/special or photographing them as they came into this world.
Nudity is still somewhat consider taboo and that thinking it's plain stupid.

anyone ever used a Savage 500w LED light kit? I was recommended by the local camera store that the savage kit was a good beginner kit. I'll be using it probably to shoot baby pictures, maybe some videos, and shooting my shoes.
if anyone else has any other recommendation let me know! thanks!
