done for why?

[stigmundfreud]

few from testing out a new location tonight, even at 1.8 and 1600 it was hard getting the shutter speed, still serves me right for getting there late

[stigmundfreud]

Thanks! I found the location a few months back and been aching to use it!

[stigmundfreud]

like the 1st, nice location where is it?

[stigmundfreud]

have car will travel. Do I still need a bulletproof vest in the shire? Dated a girl there a few years ago, it left me scared.

Recent portraits taken when on holiday at the beginning of the month.


Feedback appreciated.

For me the 1st one is too harshly lit which has resulted in an almost shaddowing around her body, pose is uncomfortable and the white post distracting

2nd reminds me of 80s style, the sun burst is a nice approach but too much

all that needed was a comedy water spray!

always take criticism with a pinch of salt, what I like another wont and visa versa. Family always say "oooh its brilliant"

[stigmundfreud]

why you undecided?

This is just a boring head shot taken with a new make up artist I met tonight, the girl in the shot. She popped round so we could discuss ideas and she brought a friend to use as a model (2nd pic). Neither have been in front of camera before but it was a good way of them getting used to things to come

[stigmundfreud]

?? I thouht his body was bloody ripped, hate the fker as my keg and bh tits just dont quite do it for the girls. It was for his portfolio too, he wanted some body shots as he didn't have any. I think he has a great body (clearly in a manly mates appreciation way)

how do you mean?

The set up was all using natural light. As you see the arches into the distance they also were behind me. I used a reflector on a stand positioned in the arch behind me to reflect sun light down into the shot.

That what you on about?

[stigmundfreud]

thanks Jon

Andy, I didnt use any flash last night just some reflectors instead. Was just a.) too lazy to use flash and b.) fancied just to use reflectors

eta nice shot andy
