    Favorite is #3. Coloring, background and cute little smile would totally make me want to check out the rest of your site.

    I like photo number 10. I like that it shows an older person on a swing having fun - laughing and seems like is just having fun during this photo shoot. The lighting and the angle are great - Alexandra Vargas

    I loved #3...beautiful color, composition and captured the beauty of this baby! I also thought #17 was artistically beautiful...color, composition, clarity and again captured a reflective side of this handsome guy! Both of these project quality and an 'eye' for people.

    3, 10, or 14. It depends on the target market. Are you targeting kids, families, or anyone at-large? If you're targeting kids and/or families, then #3 gets my vote!

    Photo #6 - Adorable kid with an interesting and colorful background.

    (#9 & #10 were close runner-ups)

    #17 is my favorite - beautiful lighting and you captured a wonderfully thoughtful expression on your model
    #3 is my second favorite - love the brick backdrop and you could not have found a cuter kid :)

    Those are my two-cents ;)

    #8 is perfect.

    #8. Absolutely. The perspective, angle, and out-of-focus background paired with a precious expression on her face make it a flawless photo. Great front-page shot!

    #3 runs a VERY CLOSE second. Would have chosen it instead had the background been more distant and out-of-focus.

    Casey picks #3.

    I like #3 best. There's something about the juxtaposition of a cherubic, round face with the hard, rectangular cobbles ... It brings out the beauty in each by contrast. They're all lovely, Melonie, and I'm really happy that you've found this passion!

    Great Photos Mel! I loved #8. Great perspective, the subject takes up most of the photo, background bricks give an interesting background without distracting from the subject, that girls expression is terrific, and it is a very sharp photo. Best of luck with your new business! Bernie

    I vote for #3. #10 is my second place.

    Love the brick background and the simplicity of #3, and the subtle smile of the little girl.

    As for #10—It looks great, and it's so rare to see any kind of art that respects and honors older people. It's a great photo in its own right, but I also love that it features an older man.

    Hope you are well, Melonie!!!

    Felicity's photo is still the one that sticks out to me, over and over. Also, I do love the one of us for a family sense. But I would vote Felicity, then Sydney's, then us. All are so good. Sorry it took so long to respond.

    Absolute favorite- #3! Although #10 was a close second. I just can't stop looking at #3- her expression, the simple but interesting/textured background, the angle- it's just a great shot. As for #10- it feels like you captured that sweet man's personality, which is rare.

    All are beautiful though, Mel!! I still wish you could do some belly/newborn shots with me way out here in Portland. (Ok, I'll stop. Promise. ;)
