This is one of my favorite portraits that I have shot. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, and all critiques and comments are welcome and appreciated.

My daughter turned 14 this weekend (OMG, I'm feeling old), so of course we celebrated with cake and candles. This seemed like a good time to practice aiming my camera at a person instead of trees, mountains, rivers, etc.
I've only done "people pictures" maybe 3 times with a real camera -- the last time was a family member's high school...
Newbie to the site and to photography, shooting for about 1 year. This is a portrait I did with my wife as she helps me to try to get better with my portrait photography... all CC is welcome.

These are some shots from my first photo shoot involving a kid. Granted, I've only been doing photography for a few weeks now, I really enjoyed the challenge, and I have developed a new respect for people who photograph children often! A couple, i realize, are little more than snapshots, but I did try and think about some of them. Any and all...
I have really been loving my recent natural light portraiture. I was able to shoot this lovely model today in studio using my Sony A73 and Sigma 50 f/1.4 ART (MC11). I placed a white reflector below her to help lift the shadows a bit. As far as post processing, I have really been loving the Jake Hick's method of "skin smoothing" instead of FS....
I found a Bulk roll of old Fuji Slide copying film (CDU2/35mm) in the freezer and today I did give it a shot. I loaded a 12 Exp. Roll of it and shot it at the end of a portrait session in the studio. Its a tungsten balanced slide film, but I cross developed it in C41 chemistry and I must say I´m intrigued. Although the cross processing did not...
My first publication in this group, a portrait done with a mix of natural light and one strobe to put more light on her face.
CC welcome!

I have never done studio photography before... I am a landscaper first who has dabbled in pretty much everything else that photography has to offer but never portraiture or fashion.
I got the opportunity to shoot this model on Monday night and was wondering about how the...
Hello everyone! I'm new here, so I thought I'd share something recent. I'm still fairly new to digital photography and have a lot to learn, but I was wondering if I could get some constructive criticism on this image?
Cheers :)
Had the chance to participate to a cosplay event in Montreal - was the first time, still was pretty fun, especially editing those shots, since they allow a greater degree of creativity compared to a standard portrait.
Since was the first time, any comment or critics is more than welcome!
Cheers
Hi,
I'd just like to get some feedback on these images I took recently of a couple of my friends. One was an impromptu photo of my friend, and the other was for a little photo shoot for a before/after portfolio of another friend's bodybuilding journey. I've only been doing photography and dabbling in Lightroom/Photoshop for about two...
Retro hippie street fashion vibe. ;)
Playing with new editing techniques.
