I was looking into getting some professional head shots done for Pageants and they are pretty darn expensive. I know it's worth it, but while I save the money I decided to try to do my own. I did my hair and makeup and used a bare wall as my backdrop. I used 3 external lights, and my tripod, along with a blow dryer to attempt to get my hair to look blown. (but I think I used too much hairspray) then I did minimal retouching and light correction with picasa Anyway here are a couple of my favorites. What do you all think? Obviously not as good as a professional, but pretty good for a first attempt? Anyone done self head shots have any advice for ways to make them better next time? Specifically ideas for backdrops.
