I had a chance this past week to work with a new model, neither of us have much experience so at least we didn't have great expectations of each other. Here are two shots from the shoot, the only edits are some slight cropping, wb adjustments and a little level adjusting:
1. iso 100 50mm f8 1/500
I think the shadows on her face are too much and I should have gotten more fill light in her face. I'm not sure about the horizon, I've read that if it intersects the subject you get a better sense of three dimensions, but I'm not sure cutting through her head was correct.
2.
iso 100 50mm f8 1/500
Here her face was way too dark, I had to lighten it up in Lightroom, I'm really unhappy with that. I think the horizon is ok here, but its her head again and I'm just getting the feeling that's bad.
My biggest complaint is that for shooting at ISO 100 I feel like these shots are rather grainy. I really feel like my iso performance is horrible and a lot of my pictures are grainy, this is really bothering me. Also this was shot at an awful time of day, it was about 4:30pm, I really wanted to shoot later but had to work with this. I think having someone assisting with my reflector would have helped, I couldn't get it in these shots without blowing away. Anyway, please be brutally honest. I really want to improve how I shoot people. Another weird thing I noticed, these photos are really desaturated in chrome, but look better in FF...
