no not at all.. I always give my honest opinion about photos because I expect the same in return and how hypocritical of me if I didn't speak honestly


sure, miss 7.5/10.

I do think your photo is a 1/10, after rating 7.5/10, since apparently even award-winning photos can't get a 10/10 from you.

Omar, I'm being honest. just because a photo wins an award it doesn't mean it has to get a 10/10 from everyone... I honestly like the one you posted previously more than this one because I think you could've taken advantage of the reflection more. I'm a huge fan of reflections you know. perhaps I could give you an 8 but I don't think it gets a 10/10

remember my "award-winning photo" I'm sure you wouldn't have given it a 10/10

just kidding. It's mine. Won a contest in the FredMiranda forums. trololol.

6/10. Cute baby, lovely expression, dislike the softness and b&w conversion (which just looks like a desaturation).

as I recall, you helped me edit that one.. I had a totally different conversion, thank you ^_^ I remember you messing with the curve in this and everything, shall I post my older version to see if it's any better?

now this photo is absolutely lovely... wow I love this, there is so much love and they are balanced out with the light on the right... this one deserves that 10/10 in my book the only adjustment I would make is that light on the top. it's a little awkward perhaps crop it off? idk

hmmm let me see... I was debating between this one and my favorite from this wedding lol but perhaps my next photo will be my favorite

Colors: uncheck.
Focal point: uncheck.
Flash usage: uncheck.
Composition: uncheck.
Not cutting off vital parts of the image: uncheck.

Being told by Armando that this photo is good: check.

Nice snapshot. 1/10.



I'm just posting shit as I edit it.

I agree with onepage about the concept, its way too overdone. Plus not to be mean, but its not done very well imo. The whole picture looks crooked to me, and whatever is behind their heads is totally distracting.



This is completely out of focus..it just looks like a generic snapshot ._. Although it is pretty rare to see a guy make the duckface.

Do I really need to rate? I hate trying to figure out some random number, it seems really pointless. Id rather get cnc than a number.

Fuckin BEAUTIFUL kid photo. 9/10 in my book. It's so hard to get a sharp baby of a photo doing something like this. If only you'd be a little more towards the right in order to get a 3/4th's face and to avoid his hand blocking too much from the face.

woah... first off he didn't even say anything about this one. I don't even think he saw it. and what vital parts of the image? will you kindly explain why this really got a one? I feel like I'm the only one being honest here. I love your work you know that and that has to be the coolest ring shot I've seen because of the glow! I feel the depth of field is a tad bit too shallow and the composition is odd but I think this one gets 8/10. LOVE LOVE the idea of the names <3

sigh, shall I ever post something you actually give a decent rating to? I am better at capturing personality and happiness.. I'm almost afraid of posting this one but here goes! I feel inferior now... last wedding shot

simple yet emotional imo...

I disagree with your last comment. The composition is what makes this photo, along with the DOF shallowness to create contrast names w/ rest of photo. Not only that, but it looks like fuckin Lord of the Rings. My precious........
You. have. christmas lights. Why would you not put this in color?
Your b&w conversions are so boring. The couple doesn't stick out enough, like a year 95' wedding photo.
The photo is so conservatively taken :\ I see soo much Armando in this.
Did you by any chance use the glowy effect on the dress? It's 0/10 if you did, due to tackyness.

Good stuff:
lovely capture/moment
10/10 on the exposure settings
composition is excellent (but boring as fuck)

7/10 today, 10/10 in 1995.

This is the last feedback I give you with wedding photos.


For any one who wishes to shoot a wedding: it's ezpz to get good photos in the morning as the bride is getting ready, ezpz to shoot the venue, ezpz to shoot the 'happy moments' after a ceremony, ezpz to shoot the first kiss, and ezpz to shoot portraits/formals. But fuuuuck, church entry photos are hard. Just think how fast you must fix your settings to get proper exposure outside and 3 seconds later get the isle walk @ usually iso 6400, a mix of green hallus and tugsten light + sunlight coming from outside and some colored from tainted windows. all manual.
Bring me a photographer that can get a GOOD church entry photo, which includes all the nerviousness and crying, and you will have brought me a very very very talented or extremely lucky photographer (not walking down the isle, which is a different criteria, and the bride usually fakes a smile to hide her nerviousness/crying or is amazed at looking at her groom). I belong to the second group. Most photographers will simply skip the entry.




I'm done trolling/being an ass but being extremely helpful for tonight. Edited 200 photos :\

Thanks m8 ^^ Yeah I know, Ive really got to learn to move around more, I was noticing that as I was going through all the photos (but I did end up having 198 keepers out of the 450-ish that I took :D.)

Pssh, bullshit, its only easy to do all that if you have a happy looking couple for those happy moments...lmao. Its like wedding fever in here o_o

This shot is awesome though, you always manage to get those great emotive shots. The dad looks like he doesnt want to let go, the bride looks like shes about to pass out, and the mom is like "Its ok, get in there!" It might be a total pain, but you could try cloning out that guy in the background. Maybe put some of that great bokeh thats on the right over on the left. But thats me, Im a freak about stuff in the background xD

I guess Ill post a wedding shot, thank god for when the brides dad showed up, now theres a guy that could emote. Waiting for the elevator right before the ceremony.
