New pics...

[rowangolightly]

Ok, here are some of the new pics that heyitschris1 just took of Queen's Gambit yesterday. For the record, I'm IMMENSELY critical of pics of me and won't be using any of the individual shots of me. What an incentive to lose weight, ye gods! NOT Chris' fault by any means.

But we do need help choosing the pic which will go on our newly-written web-site. Yes, we're changing it so that we'll have less focus on Renfaires and more as professional musicians.

So....please help us choose so I won't have to do it! We all put down our preferences and these are the ones which at least two of us chose. Bruce is still working recording so he hasn't chosen any yet.



This is "QG0006" (EDIT, which is now 07 'cause Becky pointed out that it's better and it is, minor changes but a lot better image)


"QG0008" SORRY, this is 8, not 88


"QG0012"


"QG0016"


"QG0018"


"QG0030"


"QG0042"


"QG0094"

I'd save that for a tiebreaker, though.

16 & 18 are my favorites

[zianuray.livejournal.com]

Angus says 7 and 30

[2giddy4u.livejournal.com]

Heck they are all great pics! use em all, do a collage of them!

[kyleigh812.livejournal.com]

I really like 18.

[decembertyger.livejournal.com]

"QG0018" AKA Bruce and his sirens :D for a "posed" shot
and
"QG0012"
"QG0016"
for "playing" shots

[foolscap001.livejournal.com]

It's a tough call, but I'll say 16--I like seeing you in action.

[duane-kc.livejournal.com]

30, 18 or 42, that order.

[chibi-jeni.livejournal.com]

16 and 30

But especially 30.

Y'all look like you had a great time taking these! :)

[bleuberi21.livejournal.com]

18 needs to be vetoed. Seriously. I look hideously pregnant in that one.

[mermaid2003.livejournal.com]

30, 42, 94

[capi.livejournal.com]

The first one.... and 30. And that's without looking at all the other 60+ comments. *LOL*

If you want to have images of a band that includes bodhran and fiddle that do not shriek Ren-Faire, then your shots need to be in an indoor venue. Period. The modern clothes help, but they just say "Ren Faire band that does the occasional pub gig"

I'm sorry. I really like the shots. But honestly, as a booking agent, I would skim right by these unless you were as well known as Blackmore or Tull.

I absolutely like 12 the best of the 'open' shots. I also really like 18. I think 30 is the best picture of you, personally, but I really don't think anyone else looks that great in it.

18!

[fatesfolly.livejournal.com]

I like "QG0006"

it looks natural, but you still get a feel for the group

good luck!

30 & 12~~12 would be great as a front cover for a CD and 30 for the back/liner notes. *grin*

Re: *takes a deep breath and prepares to say something immensely unpopular*

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I good point. And in such a hurry as we're in, we didn't have access to a good indoor venue; inside our house would scream "amateur" even more than outside.

We are definitely planning an inside shoot soon as we can.

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

We did...but then, we always have a good time together.

18 has been vetoed; as good as the rest of it is, being able to see our eyes has been noted as a very positive thing in getting hired and I do see that point entirely.
