My 9 year old Daughters first attempt at portraiture

[Davec223]

Evening all,
My 9 year old Millie has been asking me all week to let her use my camera and lights so that she can have a go at portraiture, so as her little sister was out today we set up the lights and she had a go. She would love to know what you all think as she loves to read the comments that are posted from all over the world. All I know is that it looks like I might as well give her all my gear as she is better than me.

1. Sorry about the ugly model

2. Her Uncle

Thanks For Looking.

Regards

Dave

We are too! J/K!!! :mrgreen:

They look great! Keep working on it.

Advice though... chin down, face forward a bit (think of a turtle sticking his neck out of his shell). This is a guideline to portraits in general, not necessarily these 2 shots.

Just kidding, no you're not, I am one ugly sob.

Thanks for the tips I will try those next time we have a shoot.
