Hey Lizandro,

Nice little project you have there. I have some small fast ways to improve it. First, remove shots that are very similar to each other. It is almost as watching duplicates. By removing these excess shots the viewer will have a better experience going through you're pictures. I'm sure they don't want to see the same thing twice.
Second, do you crop your pictures? Some pictures have some negative space one side of the group or individual. I've noticed some plants creeping into the negative space and this pulls in the viewers eye, something you don't want. You would like to have the viewer lock in unto the individuals, that's the point of interest after all ain't it friend?
In closing, your project is a success, you conveyed what the event is, and there are some lovely expressions of the people. You sure know how to get your people in front of the camera comfortable. Kudos!
