I really hate having my picture taken. I don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera at all. But I’ve read a lot about how a photographer can grow in their skills by taking self-portraits…
So here it is…”Self-Portrait #1″
Exposure: 1/50 at 3.5 with a 85mm 1.8 lens, ISO 200
Lighting: SB-800 TTL at camera left through an umbrella, reflector at camera right
Hi Jenny!!!
Taking better pictures of people is something I really want to do but finding willing subjects isn’t easy. Using yourself is a brave but good idea.
Great work with the lighting.
BEAUTIFUL SUBJECT !!
Reminds me of someone I know and care about alot.
I have known her for awhile and love her dearly
Thanks, Mike! I appreciate your encouragement!
Hey Duker….thank you, my friend!
Beautiful picture! I’m just surfing looking for tips on taking better pictures and came across your page. This is a great picture.
