In the search for the look I want and to fight off the urge to buy new gear I decided to simplify and shoot with one light. For the next little while I am going back to basics and using this $88 light I found at Lowes. Also three portraits taken using this light.

I really like the last pose and lighting. BUT, please photoshop out that distracting One hair coming down over Her left eye, most and lip!

You have an adorable and willing model...so you've won half the battle right there.

When the light is above the subject, like in 2, it has the same effect as on camera flash.

FWIW :-)

Unless you bring the light much closer, or have a big diffusser on it.

To be honest, the lighting (to be more specific, the shadows), especially in the second shot, doesn't fit the subject or her mood.

The first shot of her is the strongest by far, IMO, but I still would have pulled the light source closer, and in front of the girl.

All just my opinion, though, so disregard completely if your tastes are different to what I'm describing.

I think the light is a bit too high in relation to the subject.
