Default First Portrait: Amanda

Amanda

Took some shots last night at a family function. Not really much in the way of lighting and I haven't yet purchased a decent flash to go that route.

A bit of colour correction in Photoshop to get what I could but really, Amanda pulls it off with a face made for photographs. Yes?

Yes, she's lovely. I like the lighting -- it has such a natural look. And a wonderful composition. Thanks for sharing this one.

Lovely shot Brian. Love the light reflections in her eyes. Adds a real sparkle. Like the lighting and the colouring. Feels kinda retro. TFS.
