[QUOTE="Will V|Photography, post: 34321, member: 7177"] Thanks for the input everyone! The first shot was really candid. I ran up a bit, turned around and snapped. The one thing with portraiture I'm terrible at is direction. I have no idea what to say, which is why I shoot my girlfriend. I wish I had a faster lens but that will have to wait for Christmas I suppose. Oh, and no flash used in either of these shots. All natural light. ;) The second shot is rather soft. I liked her expression but the rest of the frame kind of sucked, so it's a super-close crop of a shot similar to the first. I think I was just proud of making something that resembles a decent shot from one that wasn't so decent. :D [/QUOTE]
