Yeah, I agree #3 is what I would use. Technical quality is fine on everything; the posing could be improved. People in a line usually doesn't work too well. Often helps to break up the line by having the heads at different levels and different angles. #1 kinda reflects the right idea; it's just way to cluttered (background), and a bit too "cutesy". If you have an adjustable camera try to use a small f number to throw the background out of focus, (probably won't be able to do that in bright sun).

3. Lets face it, the only thing really worth looking at in theat picture is the girl. Not that the rest of y'all aint Addonises in your own minds, but seriously, yeah. the girl is what most people are looking at. shes pretty. might as well feature her. The pic is the most professional looking as far as poses anyway. The others just look like a bunch 0'dudes and a chick hanging out trying not to look bored.

Yeah, to be a bit overly picky and enter 'photography' mode vs 'band shot' mods... the bright, featureless sky draws my eyes away from the band mambers. The top of the tree right over coat-less Jack Daniels guy looks a bit comical and the shot is a little over-exposed in general making the snow on the red wall look like a white cap on the white cap. Her top should ideally be something even further from the color of the wall as I feel the color of her top and the color of the wall are fighting for an overall contrast from the general black-ness of the shot.

 

For a quickly staged shot, I think it's fine but could be tweaked. Not trying to rip on it as I think it would make for a solid shot with just a tiny bit of work, but these things are what a photographer would notice before taking the shot.

 

I'm not very good with adding in sky backgrounds, but I think it could be tweaked into something pretty solid.

don't take this the wrong way....but......i'm not sure exactly how impressed the Shoshone are gonna be with someone in the band looking like Kit Carson.....know what i mean??

 

i know it's your style....but this time it might be prudent to loose the hat and jacket.

 

i'm just sayin'
