Amythest - Beautiful Red Head + 85L

This was a for fun/me session. I wanted to shoot a little red head so I put it out on my FB page and had a bunch of people interested. I LOOVE red heads. Anyways, big sucker for serious faces so this was my first edit from the batch.

I love the red hair against the green background, but kind of dig it in b&w too...what do you think? Any other CC is welcome as well. Mom did bring her to me wearing a light dusting of makeup...a tiny bit of eye liner and a bit of glitter/sparkles. I could have done without that but when they show up that way I guess there isn't much you can do. lol

Stunning, Lisa. I'd have to go with color on this. She looks too young to wear makeup, though.

Thank you! And I agree...too young. Sometimes they show up how they show up though. She's only 9. I won't even let my almost 13yr old daughter wear makeup but to each their own I guess. I'm just glad it was light and not caked on. I shot a pageant girl last year (FOUR years old) caked in foundation and mascara. Really, really sad.

well I like the B&W and Color equally, she pops nicely either way

As a father of a red head, I have to vote for the color. The green always makes the red hair stand out

That's easy, the color for sure. Wonderful shots.

Thank you.

Nice set and another vote for the color even though your B&W conversions are always top notch. Quick off topic question but do you find yourself using the 85L over the 70-200? I remmeber the one family session where you used the 70-200 and they came out fantastic but don't really think I've seen that many from you recently with it.
