[QUOTE="Rick M, post: 93358, member: 4399"] Had a fun morning shooting my first portraits today. I had a few mistakes, but all in all I'm ok with the results. I discovered that I need a lighter background. Despite direct light on the background, his hair does not stand out as much as I would have liked. Will go for some lighter colors for the next one. I accidently moved up my shutter speed while shootiung and half the shots were under exposed, live and learn! Here's a few from today These are all shot with the Nikon 85mm 1.8g at f5. Studio lighting was all continuous flourescent, 3 85w (425 equivalent) and 2 30w (about 100w equivalent), no flash. The bulbs are all 5500k matched the WB as close as possible. I was very pleased with the color reproduction. Click on the image for a larger size, any suggestions welcome!
