Amazing, everything is perfect except the contrast. If you did something as simple as raising the contrast about 15-20 points, it would have had a lot more impact. But I dunno, 10 anyway. :-D

I like the concept, but it feels too "posed". Could use a little more light in front of the girls.

I can help but smile when I see this wonderful photograph. I wish the girl on the right had also been looking into the camera. Nice point of view too.

First of all....great interactivity with the models. Whatever you said to get them laugh in such a natural manner, worked splendidly. Backdrop is great. Though I think the use of flash could've been better, I realize how difficult flash photography in the day can be, and I couldn't do it better myself.

Fun portrait. I like the "rounded" look of the image. Good lighting and nice bg. Superb expressions.

Fabulous really fun shot of your daughters. I love everything here, the even exposure, the real yet beautiful colours, the position of the camera to get your models from a low placed, and the composition. Great idea for the challenge as well, impossible to deny that.

Oh how cute. Love the blue sky - it surrounds them and all of their attire goes with it. Did you plan that? Their expressions are awesome. Kind of snapshot-ish, but it's so cute, I don't even care!!!!
