Hi My name is Barbara MacFerrin and I'm a professional photographer based in Colorado. My specialty is the fine art portrait of children and families. I shoot with Nikon D750 with either 50mm or 85mm lens. Looking forward to seeing everyone's work!
These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.
I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.
This is a water reservoir for the city of Curitiba, Brazil
Here are a couple long exposure shots using my original 50 year old Minolta SR-T201 and kit lens shooting Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 II. Both images were taken just at the end of blue hour.

WOW. I'M A FAN ALREADY, REALLY LOVE THE SHOTS
Thank you!
Old painterly very nice soft and dramatic, I am starting up in the fall and will be using the same setup. I'm currently looking into lighting .....any recommendations?
I mainly use one 60" octa and a vflat on the opposite side for fill. I used the Flashpoint Xplor 600
Thank you Barbara!!
You're welcome!
Beautiful photos! Look almost perfectly like paintings, I love them
Thank you!
Wow! Awesome work!
wow!
Those are great! I am curious how you did the lighting.
I primarily use one light in 60" octa then a white v flat for fill on opposite side.
I like your portraits. The eyes on second pic look like you use medium format. Well done!
I wished I had a medium format! :D
Beautiful work.
Thank you!
The second one is my favorite.
wow, very impressive. such a unique style.
Thank you!
very inspiring and beautiful work Barbara. I wonder what was your lighting setup in photo#2.
Thank you! That one was lit with one light in a 60" octa camera left. This is my setup in the majority of my work.
Superb shots Barbara, love those soft muted tones. Shot one - her expression is wonderful. not the same as, but has a similar quality to the Mona Lisa 'almost smile'.
I'd love to see a subtle hair-light on that shot... just a little backlight lifting that hair texture on the RHS (model's left).
Just an idea, I couldn't improve on these. Thanks Barbara.
