Just Me

Technique #6 - Professional looking portraits. Another go at this, just used window light. And that is what it is all about - light. Gets frustrating trying to get the most out a lens & the daylight/indoor light. I only have a built in flash & I haven't figured out how to use it properly. Maybe that will be a challenge to set myself

[Tina Cook]

Lovely!

[Five Alive]

Lovely capture. Great use of light :-)

[Graham Thresher]

A lovely portrait.

[Sue]

Lovely portrait Wendy ... I can understand you challenge.

[Chris]

The natural light looks wonderful. Some light on the eyes would make it better. They are shadowed by the brows.

[Sue Wilde]

This is fantastic. The natural light is working winders here. fav

[Mandy dineley]

Its lovely, I am experimenting with light too it all takes time doesn't it.
He has a cheeky look on his lovely little face.

[Marcia Lake]

This is a lovely shot Wendy.

[Henri Russell]

Beautiful portrait.

[Suze]

Lovely portrait Wendy - I find it difficult taking shots of children cos I'm not very quick and they get bored with all the hanging around.

[Rachel]

Simply beautiful

[Mike Gifford]

Excellent lighting and overall look! Great shot!

[Yvonne]

Love that expression. The lighting is wonderful.

[Nita]

Great shot. I love the natural light.

[Karin Treff]

Beautiful shot. Love his expression and the softness of the light.

[MelissaKay]

Love his expression, it is one that I am very familiar with. I can't count how many photos that I have with my 3 year old (almost 4) with this face! It is usually when he is telling me about something, a half smile, half talking.
Love it! Very nice lighting. Good luck with the challenge!

[Janet Shaffer]

Beautiful portrait. I only have an on-camera flash, too, which I don't like to use.

[Lepi]

Beautifully done. I am also trying to achieve the professional portrait look and came to the same conclusion - it's all about light and shadow.

I am your get pushed partner for this week. I've been looking through your album and you have some lovely shots. I particularly like your portraits of your son and the blurb with this one gave me the idea for this weeks challenge - which is to shoot a portrait using fill-in flash. Good luck and have fun.
