photographer will always own the copyright unless the contract says otherwise.

in the case of no written contract, the photographer retains the copyright.

If the photographer is an employee of a bigger company, the company might own the copyrights.

I like it apart from her expression. possibly she’s looking too far on the side, too much white in her eyes.
lovely shine off her hair.
at first i thought the background was distracting but i actually think it works.

i can see the 2 pictures and i’ve looked at them a few times but struggle to come up with a constructive comment..

i’m sure it was a big effort in the processing which is nicely done although maybe just a tiny bit too perfect.

a nice portrait, composition is just ok to me.. maybe that’s why i can’t really think of what else to say..

“pro” is nowdays a term used in a lot of different ways.. so this is where i am at..

am i a “pro”? … possibly not or at least not yet.. however i do charge my customers for my services hence why i am replying..
what do i do? studio portraits focusing on newborns and children (80%) Commercial work (20%).

How many here use signed contracts with their clients?
* commercial clients will have a quote with all the info before the shoot. licence agreement for usage once i deliver the images.
* portraits session, i’m getting around to provide a contract before the shoot commence to be signed ahead of session.

Do you insist on getting paid before any photos are taken or do you invoice your clients?
*no. commercial work paid on delivery when lucky, at times they want a 30 days invoice.
portrait.. session paid on day of shoot. extras paid on collection.

How many of you guys print your own proofs for clients? Be it portraits or wedding photography, and how many of you use professional printing services for same?
*digital proofs, lab for printing.

Notes:
Nice portrait, shows good technical knowledge in lighting.
Also like the composition, not following the rules works in this case.

not sure if you were trying a light setup or if you were focusing on the food.
If you were trying to have all white setup, you are missing light at the front.
the whitebalance has a cooler look in the bottom half of the image.

composition wise, i think a natural backdrop would suit food better. white is nice for marketing of a product, but would need to be stronger here

it does for me. now the first thing i see is the sharp eye. which is also the subject of the picture.
the second eye is now less important part of the image. i don’t mind it been out of focus, and agree with you that you shouldn’t be front on.
the highlight, in that out of focus eye is really annoying tho. clone it out and put a fake one smaller and less annoying :)
