I really like the concept of all the poses, but the subject looks a little stiff. I've started taking portraits, and I scour the internet (and the homepages of all the great people on this site!) and look at professional portraits. More often than not, a slight tilt of the head, chin turned toward the shoulder, make all the difference in the world. (There's even a few links on this site on taking portraits). The main problem I see with the photo you've posted is the shadow over half of his face. #4 and #8 are my favorites; he looks relaxed and the color/lightin seems more natural.

Yeah, we took these on the last minute and my hubby was kind enough to deal with my "directions" :-P
I've been wanting to get comfortable posing people I know before I deal with strangers.
Thanks a lot!
