I don’t think the lighting in the background is a problem. It’s fantastic that you kept the lighting on them even. I had a shoot where I was dealing with unavoidable dappled lighting on the people, and it was a real challenge.
I think it’s definitely a good idea to keep an eye on the lighting backgrounds as much as possible, you can position yourself or your subjects in contrast to the shadows or light behind them. Sounds good on paper, eh? Totally different when you’re actually out there on a shoot and you have a ton of things you’re trying to “keep an eye on”! 🙂
In your edit, I think if you brighten and warm it up (something like I’ve attached), it’ll really give it a nice touch, and you’ve got yourself some good shots!
This was a really neat opportunity for me to use some tricks I learned in a posing course though
Aha, now here’s an oft-discussed topic amongst photographers! 🙂 It might be fun to hear what some of the “tricks” were that you employed in this case?
