I know there are a lot of flaws with them, but as a first serious attempt for pictures of someone, I'm pretty happy with them.

First attempt at portraits.
This past weekend I did my first serious attempt at taking pictures of someone. I offered to attempt to take some senior pictures for some friends. I've always put off taking pictures of people because I've never really enjoyed it. And, because I enjoy photography, I like to take pictures for myself, knowing that I only have to please myself. I was pretty nervous about trying something new and because although I was doing this for nothing, this time I'd be taking pictures for someone else and I didn't know how well they'd like them. In the end, I had a lot of fun.

I really like the 4th and 7th one. REally nice shots there. Not too many distractions from the background. I also like the shots of just her face at the end. But it's not bad for a first attempt.
ReplyDeleteYeah, there was some distracting stuff in the pics. The first pic here was the second one I shot. After that I moved in closer.
DeleteThere's too much shadow on her face in 4. I like the shot except for that.
My problem was that I wasn't prepared to deal with the bright sun. Shooting into the sun left her face in shadow while her facing it made her squint.
I'll learn. I'm glad she was a good sport. I think she had fun. I know I did.
