I'm nervous because today I am going to meet a model and take her photos! She needs updated photos for her portfolio so while she normally gets paid she is letting me do them for TFCD. She will be the first non-family member I took pictures of, omg!
I'm not nervous because I think I have a good grip on the exposure triangle and will be able to adjust my camera settings accordingly, and I now know I either tend to over or underexpose so I'm going to take my time and be really careful about it.
What I am nervous about is I want to use my prime lens but always seem to miss focus. I look through the viewfinder and it appears IN focus, but later I realize it's so soft.
If I shoot at say 2.8 will I still get a nice creamy background? Because when I shoot at 2 or 1.8 it's really soft, usually on the whole photo and how come it looks like I am focused but after I release the shutter it's not?
