Help me pick the best one…

in Personal Reflection, Uncategorized

My friend Tracy is an amazing photographer. She even taught me a thing or two not that I have had much chance lately to practice what I have learned but I still have the skills if you know what I’m sayin’. :)

Anyway, so I have this whole book thing coming up and I needed a really good photo for my proposal among other things and I just knew Tracy was the girl for the job. I went over to her studio with half my wardrobe, make-up in tow, and did as she instructed me to do. I have to say that she pretty much captured who I am. She may have replaced Gevan as my chief photographer but don’t tell him that. Shhhh!

Now I have a dilemma. Which one do I choose? I need one for my book proposal, one for my speaker packet, and one for a profile photo (here on my blog).

Help!!!!

btw… I have a running list of all those who want blog evaluations and I am totally for that and super duper excited about it. I am just going to think for a couple of days about how to best approach this since I want it to be edifying and not critical. I will however, get to all of them. I promise, k? You ladies are so the best!!!

#1 – Not a fan at all. Sorry.
#2 – Love, Love this one!
#3 – Cute
#4 – Very professional – book?
#5 % 6 – are warm and inviting
#7 – Not a fan of – too much chair

Just my humble opinion

Great, great pictures… all of them! However, if I had to pick just one (what a tough job that is!) I would have to go with #3.

Hello Amy!

#4 is my favorite for a speaker packet. #8 is also great too.

All of the pictures are beautiful! Your friend did a great job of capturing your beauty and your personality! Thanks for sharing!!

P.S. Isn't it a fun problem to have when all the proofs are great?! :)

Hey Amy,

I by far think #3 is the best one. I have already told Tracy this on her sneak peak blog. Of course they are all great, but #3 has tops for me.

Either of these for the blog profile or even the "Just Because I Think It's Cute"
It's fun and I like to think there are others who work and blog barefooted like me;-)
