Recropped this one, increased contrast slightly, applied touch of color, and dreamy filter in PS.

  What a beautiful vision, Brianne! I love both, but for some reason I'm more drawn to the second one. I like more color in it, I guess. But it's beautiful either way!

  I like #1 too, it looks more dreamlike to me. I love the perspective on this. She looks so wonderfully girly.

  Thanks so much, April! I originally had her centered in the frame, but felt this was much more dramatic.

  I love this! The composition is perfect use of negative space. The motion captured in this little girl's twirling dress is PERFECT. This image is perfect.

  Thanks Brianne for your recent comments on some of my photos. I see we share the same passion. I am just opening my own studio in Northeast Iowa in the next month. I am so anxious! I love the composition and angle that this was shot at. It does remind of a dream. Awesome job!

  Thanks for commenting on so many of my pics, Emily. I just recently moved from Sioux Falls, SD to the Chicago area. I am sure you will do quite well where you are at -- there is a need for our style of photography in that area.

  Oh- I was hoping that you were still in Sioux Falls. That is where all my extended family lives and I will be there next weekend. I could have given you tons of referrals. I grew up in Marshall, Mn which is 90 minutes from Sioux Falls. I looked at your website and love it. My site is www.gigglesngrinsphotography.com. It is pretty basic for now. I also have many of my pictures at www.photo.net/photos/giggles. It is a site similar to BP where you get ratings and feedback. If you have time, take a look.
