I know this is a maternity shot but there is no maternity group and it's almost the same concept. Just looking for some C/C. I underexposed for the background and had a strobe with an octobox connected to lithium battery placed across the creek about 12 ft away.
It's definitely still a portrait, so no reason it can't go in this group. :)
I like this lighting!! Good work!
However did you blur the grass on either side of her? It seems weird to see the grass in the same focal plane as out-of-focus.
