I wanted to get some images of this friend before she headed off to college and the rest of her life. I had taken grab shots of her as she was growing up, but had never taken the time to have a dedicated session. Interestingly, being a bit of a rebel, she has since changed her hair color. Does that mean another session? Ü
Tech Info:
Handheld Nikon D200, 85mm f1.4 lens, set to f2.0, at 1/400th sec., ISO 800, B/W mode, normal parameters. For this series of images, I positioned her in front of a large sliding glass door that had indirect daylight coming in. I had to watch out for the light coming too much from below (from a bright patio floor outdoors), so in most of the shots I had her leaning forward to lessen the upward angle of the light, in turn avoiding upward shadows. A large piece of foamboard was waved just in front of her to get the little blast of wind that sent her hair flying. Ü
