[QUOTE="GLStevensPhotography, post: 99527, member: 12236"] But would I technically need a flash, if the photos are being taken outdoors, on a bright day with snow on the ground, or can I rely on the natural light around me? Also, I'm assuming when you say 'spot meter on her face', you mean use a light meter? I don't currently own one, so I have to do trial shots, I suppose till I find what looks good. For some reason, shooting in Raw scares me to death....don't know why. Have always had my camera(s) set to jpeg. I'm a big chicken, I guess :-)[LEFT][COLOR=#000000] Read more: [URL]http://nikonites.com/d7000/9879-d7000-outdoor-winter-portraits-help.html#ixzz2GS3lLMAw[/URL] [/COLOR][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
