Second round of shoots and editing

I decided to try out the images in black and white to see what they looked like:

During the feedback session it was mentioned that the black and white didn't work as well as the colour, when i colour it brought the images to life and you can see more of the surroundings and it gives the images a sense of personality. 

I decided to try editing the images to make the colours more vibrant and to give the images a grainy effect, this is inspired by the likes of Petra Collins' candid style images.

I definitely think the natural lighting in the images makes them stand out, the shadows also add depth to the images. I agree now seeing them in colour that i prefer them like this.

I now want to experiment with the survey feedback, as to whether i should try layering the text over the images or just use it as a caption.

I am still unsure as to whether the differing eye contacts bother me, the uniformity in the images is there as they are all landscape.
