Available light portraits
Hi everyone
Feeling brave enough to post.......Seeing as I don't have any fancy lighting setups or understand it all at this point, I decided to do some portraits in available light. Any comments, hints or tips are greatly appreciated as I'm only just beginning to understand the art of photography and finding my way around my camera. I haven't touched the pics up or anything as I only have Arcsoft Photostudio and don't really know how to use it to its full extent. Am thinking Photoshop might just have to be on this years wishlist... Anyway I'm interested in any feedback to see if I'm on the right track. Cheers ![]() ![]() hope this works..... |

Re: Available light portraits
Actually prefer natural light shots to studio lighting, so keep shooting

Re: Available light portraits
Yep, nice gentle lighting here which suits the youngsters very well. I particularly like the expression in #2. You should be justly proud of these pics, they are very nice.
Suggestion: next time why not try and do something other than black for the background to give the images more depth. Keep them coming, with Ian and you producing stuff like this you're making us pros look stupid! |

Re: Available light portraits
Certainly looks like you've captured some personality in each of these shots - and that's an important element of any portraiture.
