Here's some of the pics from the shoot I mentioned. I met Tanya through One Model Place. She agreed to trade time for prints, which is something I feel really lucky about, as she was really easy going and knew what she was doing. I'm really glad I got to shoot Jade as a friend first, having three days under low-pressure. I only had a few hours with Tanya so there wasn't as much "give". Each time I do this it gets easier, so I'm guessing next time will go even smoother.

Anyway, here are the ones I've gotten ready so far.

The gallery is here. I'll be adding more later as I get to them.

I got it from a demo of a border software package, I think. The software is long gone, but I just pasted the border into a transparent layer that I saved. To use it, I just resize and then copy/paste. It's supposed to be similar to the edge of a negative. I'm not trying to fool anyone with it, it's just that the sharp edged borders don't usually work well with my style.

Thanks, guys.

Sweet shots you have here Mark. I really like your portrait work. For me, your 3rd and 4th ones make a really strong statement, but I also like the other two. The bokeh on the trees make a great background. The second is a tad overexposured especially against her white shirt but it's still a good shot.

Her poses are also great. It really does seem like she knows what she's doing. It's nice to take pictures of people who are comfortable in front of the camera and knows what you want. Did you have to coach her much?

Neat work Mark; I like the 2nd and 3rd.

You should seriously think of getting commercial (if you haven't thought of it yet)!!

Thanks, everyone!

I know. It's a 50mm on the 10D, so it's about 80mm. Weird, huh? That one does bother me. I'm not enthused about it overall, but I wanted to get some variety up. Hopefully I can work on more of them this week.
