Sorry.

I'm excited that I am getting the results I want from the studio

This one is of my daughter, she was excited that she got her own "private" session, without the boys!!!



Cheers,

Nice shot and nice studio lighting setting. Did you use a flash meter to check the lighting intensities around the shooting area? From the photo, I think it's very much evenly lit, which is usually hard to set up.

Another nice shot.

Any chance you can take a step back and show us a shot of your setup??

Thanks liberty. I don't own a lightmeter, was thinking about it, maybe one day. I have been keeping a lighting log book where I draw little setup diagrams and flash/camera settings etc... So I know pretty much what to set the lights to and what f stop to set the camera to. This one was f13 (I just leave the shutter at 200), ISO 100

Thanks Matt, this one is my favourite so far. I will put the 24mm on may other camera and take a setup shot. I am using the 70-200 at the moment so I can't get any setup shots with that lens.

Here is the rest from that session if you are interested: - http://follanphotography.zenfolio.com/p727908273/, including a semi setup shoot (well you can see the top of the softbox anyway )

Cheers.

Nice shot Woody, good exposure, nice expression and sharp eyes, not to mention bright colours. You should be happy with this one.

A beautiful image, no doubt

Attached to her arms

I am sick of getting the floor in the shot so I framed a little tighter, depending on how I use the image I could crop a little more off the bottom. Getting some props (chairs) tomorrow so this will resolve the floor issue.

Your daughter is adorable and I absolutely love the wonderful vibrant colours in this shot.

Thanks Chris. Yeah I think she is pretty cute too, must take after her mum

Here is another that I love from that shot. I have actually used this one in some advertising.



Cheers.

These are really good shots! I'm guessing your daughter is fairly photogenic? It's sometimes the hardest thing getting the shots you want with kids.

Hey Phoenix,

Yeah Sienna is pretty good in front of the camera. Actually she is really good at following instructions. If I ask her to stand a certain way she does it pretty much straight away. Not like her Brothers that are just not good at all!!!

I have a pretty good connection with most kids so I don't find it to hard to direct them. Adults on the other hand are impossible for me (in the studio, weddings are ok). I am not real great with models/adults
