[QUOTE="Ruidoso Bill, post: 93426, member: 753"] Nice job Rick, portraits can be a pain sometimes. Bounce a flash off the ceiling or I even use a small clip on halogen and clip it on the back drop stand to highlight the hair. If possible keep your subject as far from the back drop as possible which will give you more options with DOF. Next do some groups, families etc, that will help you develop some posing strategies. I'm like Marcel for a single, always have them turn and look back at you, helps angles and double chin issues as well. Look for the best side, one is normally more appealing than the other. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
