18:59:46 From Tabs The Creative to Everyone : Yes please mute ureselves thanks!

19:07:22 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : i think even with commercial works that you need to find intention or story. even with people who just wants their portraits taken that you can instill a story in there.

19:07:30 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : @alejandro ^

19:08:22 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : Thank you for the critique / advice Jonah

19:12:40 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : @alejandro https://cargo.site/Photo for some inspo. Main thing is to have your navigation to be always present. Users don’t really want to scroll all the way up to go to another page.

19:15:45 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : Thank you Jonah, for the Inspo site and ill get to changing the navigation soom

19:15:49 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : soon*

19:19:22 From Sam Eppel to Everyone : awesome thank you!

19:19:30 From Dorian (he/him) to Everyone : You're welcome!

19:22:03 From Dorian (he/him) to Everyone : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1GgYXooO0Fn8r8Ee91H0EMTM0f_4gycvx

19:22:37 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : @tab I enjoy the frontal lighting on the upper left and the burst of colors. i notice the use of HDR on some of the daylight photos. is that intentional?

19:22:52 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : *upper left portrait.

19:22:59 From Austin Scotty to Everyone : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12DNjo2sq_pMtCfcrzILjHC7QLKXKdf-C?usp=sharing

19:24:58 From Tabs The Creative to Everyone : @Jonah..I think the HDR is just a product of how I edit in photoshop..thank u!

19:26:12 From Tabs The Creative to Everyone : I love your portiats dorian

19:26:34 From Nicole Reese to Everyone : same your indoor dark-lit portraits are bomb

19:26:38 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : I like your use of depth of field Dorian

19:27:53 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : Fantastic use of leading lines in your landscapes @Dorian

19:28:40 From Rosie Rivas to Everyone : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1nnznvyX1Tf6mWGPRC_Xk3iVD1NzDpxkM?usp=sharing

19:33:34 From Alejandro Gonzalez to Everyone : I liked your use of the foreground and background of that first hunting shot @Jackson

19:35:31 From Dorian (he/him) to Everyone : I like your commercial shots!

19:38:07 From Jonah Coloma to Everyone : @austin i am curious what your mindset is behind the subject being blurred out. i am drawn to have both the background and the landscape being reflected on the mirror being on focus that somehow creates a visual tension on the photo. nice.

19:39:53 From Sam Eppel to Everyone : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-6jI6dinYwYEoD1Cg4X_A4k7NE0tshNp

19:39:54 From Austin Scotty to Everyone : It gives it a different vibe, I don’t like being a normal photographer I want to be different from everyone else.
