p.1 #5 · p.1 #5 · HELP!!! Sports Photographer trying to make a dime:) senior shoot | |
With the exception of No. 3, you're using the natural light very well. You're placing her in great light.
I'd toss No. 3. First, there's just too much of a dynamic range between the direct sunlight and the shadow. In fact, as a standalone photo, it actually looks like she's not wearing pants or anything.
I'm going to be a little contradictory here. I really like what you were going for with 4 and especially 5. They're heavily posed, but she's pretty much pulling it off where it doesn't look posed, esp with 5. With 4, her hair is just too messed up for me up top. If she laid her forehead down on the top of her head, I think I would have really liked it.
So while I like what was going on there, but a lot of these shots look posed to me. I shoot a lot of seniors, and my goal is to shoot every one of them differently. Sure, we need to figure out what to do with their hands but I try to keep it as real as possible for them. I also get a lot of shots in while they think I'm tinkering with my camera, so it's really as natural as can be.
This is a great start. You just have to keep doing these to hone your direction. Great job here!
