More panel work



I bribed everyone with suckers today. I have stooped to the level of bribery, yes.... out of all the shots of all 4 kids I liked this one the best... I also did a b/w conversion as well... kind of like the softness of the conversion, but maybe for younger child??? I think it would be good for newborn picts. Still playing with a good set up for the panel. I'm going to try a new set up hopefully tomorrow....

Still playing with diffusion panel!







And a black and white for fun!

What a couple of weeks! Haven't gotten here much! So, the Father/Daughter shoot went well! I was so blessed to have my admin assistant! Without her it would have been a disaster!!! I will post some images soon. I need to get the photo releases from my assistant... I do have to admit, I enjoy sessions much more. It was challenging to build a raport in a few minutes... especially with the young ones! I rather felt like an assembly line. Good experience though!

So, I'm still playing with my diffusion panel. I think this is the closest I've gotten. It's a bit overexposed so I've turned down the lights a bit since I took these. My meter is invaluable. SO much easier!!! I'm thinking the lighting here is a bit flat. I think I need to move my reflector. Anyway... my children are only up for posing so much... they are really sick of it right now! Maybe I need a manequin child!

All these photos are straight out of camera... nothing done but resizing. I think I'll try and shoot a few more... knock the light down just a shade and try again. I think I got rid of the yellow cast by getting closer exposure.... thinking of painting the walls gray.
