Nice pictures, Brandy! I love the backlit highlights on his hair. Keep on working that natural light!

nice work! I am also learning to work with natural light. The initial reason is because I haven't invested in artificial lighting (I'm a student and on a budget LOL) but in being forced to accomodate with natural light, I have learned to really love it above all else. Cute mohawk too!
