my friend's sister volunteered to model for me today! i tried out everything you guys suggested, over exposing, fill flash... i gotta say... i ended up with some crazy over exposed images which means i gotta improve my skills haha. anyway, it was fun! she was a pleasure to work with, contributed many ideas, overall great experience. we shot this in an alley in downtown toronto... it got kinda weird when people walked passed us to a corner where they... "lit up". definitely a place where we didn't belong (hence the title).
before you guys comment, here are a few limitations i had to work with:
1. almost no sunlight meant i had to shoot at iso400 (LOTS OF NOISE D, 1/60-1/125, f4-6 to get the overexposed but not too overexposed look you guys mentioned in my other thread
2. tiny fill card/reflector
and here a few things i found wrong with my photos:
1. the noise...
2. some are still really dark
3. White Balance! (it's the crazy colours... i swear.)
4. eyes not sharp enough
5. soft images/missed focus
anyway, here are the three photos she agreed to let me upload (3 out of 20 keepers... haha says a lot about my skills) :
Let's start out with the model's favourite! (a bit dark... i know)
