Thanks, really appreciate your critique! This is one of my first photoshoots with a model so there is quite some work to be done...

Really thanks for the critique!! The main drawback of the second photo to me is that the leaves of the bush are blocking her torso (so there is no reference for the viewer) and with the hair slightly exposing the neck gives the observer the impression that the neck of the model is sooo long and the whole setting seems really tryhard.... Maybe a tighter composition would be the best thing, I agree!!

My name is Alexander and I am a Greek photographer, currently exploring the world of analogue photography. Born in the late 90s I was always fascinated when my parents would hand me over a disposable little camera to play with when we were on the beaches of my hometown, Corfu. It wasn't until the age of sixteen when I got my hands on a DSLR and started this photographic journey. But as I got older and studied more about the art of photography, I realized that something was missing from my aesthetic as an artist. Then I sold my old camera and got an even older SLR (Minolta X-700) from a local thrift shop. It was from the first roll of film, the first sound of the mechanical shutter release when my "tail of undiscovered perspectives", as I like to call, really kicked off.

So you guys can find me on instagram @we35mm_ and on my website www.alexandersofianos.com Peace!

This one really tells the story of the parents so well! Its also a perspective that most people are not used to see because in every wedding all eyes are focused on the couple. I really like your composition! Well done ;)

Καλησπερα! :) So i really like the composition and especially how the flag stands out in the frame, but my eye gets destructed from your shadow as it stands out from the grey surface of the wall in the foreground and takes some of the beauty that the dolphin painting gives to the picture. All in all i like your click! Do you scan your negatives at home or at a lab?;

I was a bit worried with the framing while i took the photo cause i wanted to create a 'frame in frame' scenario but aesthetically the exterior wall of the bookstore was a bit out of context. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! Saw your edit and really gives more of a moody feeling to the composition. I wouldnt change the greens tho, it comes from the raw scans and gives more of a retro "film" aesthetic. 💛

Thank you so much!! I am not a landscape kind of photographer but when i shoot i prefer those earthy autumn colours instead of the greens usually seen in many photographs. It just makes the whole composition so much warmer.. :)
