My Neice

[jen2swt]

I had my camera at work yesterday and my neice saw it and said, can you shoot me like I'm a model? LOL...I was shy at first because well, I'm normally not a on command person, I shoot at will..lol.

I was like what the heck it will give me a chance to use poses, commands and editing skills.

I'm not sure about this one...I can't seem to get the shadow off the stone wall behind her. I've tried layer adjustments, cloning. Just too much stone and pattern to edit it out. If I turned more the otherway, I would have the house and front porch in the shot.

I edited out some hair frizzies that were blown from the wind. She had a problem with the sun in her eyes so she was squinting a bit. A few shiny spots on her face I patched and whitened her teeth just a bit...Overall, it's just an ok shot....Wish that shadow wasn't there, but I like the bell pole though. I was flattered she asked me to "photoshoot" her. In her words, she wanted a "photoshoot" ..lol.

Very nice...the exposure is good, you have a cute model in a classic pose...but that direct sun is not helping you out. It is a shot killer. Same set up with different light and it's a completely different image. Also chopping off the toes, you have 90% of the foot, might as well make it 100% and not chop it next time.

Yea I was a bit disappointed I didn't get the tip of the foot in. The sun was a killer yesterday. Something about that pole though..lol. It was fun shoot though and she had fun and so did I...I have more I want to post but will have to do it tomorrow due to the 1 a day rule...A few other's came out better, no shadow in different poses.
