Beginner Photo Shoot

[CanAm]

At the photography seminar I attended recently, we had a live model shoot on the second day.

Granted, the lighting sucked, the environment was not controlled at all, and there were about 100 people bumping and pushing around for that ideal shot, I think I managed to take a few decent shots-

I realize I blew out the "wings" on the fourth picture and the feet are out of focus on the second (set the aperture to too low a value).

C&C greatly appreciated. I hope to get into portraiture sometime soon.

(All photos shot with Sigma 28-70 f/2.8-4 or Canon 50mm f/1.8)

Any critiques, criticism, comments, etc at all?

I don't think there is much to comment on since you didn't have control of the situation...

However, I do think that the second models photos need to be ps'd so that the background is not a field of photographers.

Also, I like the composition of the first photo.

I agree...I am not quite sure why they would have 40 photographers shooting the same thing at the same time...I would get a friend and try a model shoot that way
