Can i ask then, is it not good to put up pictures taken by a 2nd photographer??
I don't understand the question.
Either:
Is it not OK to put up pictures from shoots I was hired for but were taken by a 2nd shooter?
This is perfectly fine and should be covered in your agreement with the 2nd. These are jobs you were hired for and the shots would be a representation of what your company provided.
OR:
Is it not OK to put up pictures I shot whilst acting as a 2nd shooter?
Legally this is down to the agreement that you have with the contracted shooter - if it was me I'd allow it.
Artistically, it's not generally good to post shots where the subject isn't engaged with the viewer, it's OK if the subject is looking wistfully into the distance, but not when they're clearly engaged with another photographer just off to your left.
We don't make photographs simply by pointing a camera at an object and getting the focus and exposure right, portraits are about the relationship between the subjects or the relationship between the subject and viewer.
Please don't see my previous post as a criticism, but as Ali has said, your appreciation of light needs some work. Spend some time
studying some great work - it's OK for the ego to have a look at some mediocre work and to think we're doing OK, but really we only improve by aspiring to be as good as those whose work we admire. We don't make great photo's by spot colouring ordinary photo's or simply desaturating them. Great photo's are created at the concept stage,
lighting, composition, story. Great photo's have all 3 of these ingredients, photographs with 2 of the ingredients will be good, with only 1 or none - the work will be ordinary at best.
Have a look on the wedding threads for work by Simon Revill or Guy Collier, they have totally different styles of photography, but the way that they use light is brilliant. Simon uses flash techniques to create dramatic light, and Guy finds beautiful natural light to tell his story. This proves that it's not gear, or a particular technique that's right or wrong, but you need to understand what it is you're aiming to do before you lift the camera to your eye.
