Another from the shoot with the girlfriend

Here's another from the shoot the other day. There are a few others that will probably get posted in glamour at some point. But she's new to the whole photography model thing so we're taking it slow. Have the same problems with lighting as the last, I was only able to light this with one bulb in my reading lamp, oh well.

Doesn't she have a pretty smile??

Absolutely. Just made me smile and forget what I was going to say. Nice shot, you lucky devil.

Here's another of similar shot. Slightly different feel, her eyes really come out in this one:

That they do, and they're both great shots, but man....she's got a killer smile. Sheesh. That thing is absolutely infectious.

You're tellin me She's a research scientist and I'm a computer programmer. I told her we should just be photographer and model instead.

That works!

They are both lovely but I like the second one best.

I Like these a lot better...

Cheers,

Wow, Floydian, these two are great shots. Now if I can only convince my girlfriend to get in front of the camera once in a while.

second one of better processed...

thanks a lot guys! She's really supportive of my photography she's just the best.

You had mentioned in Glamour & Nude that you thought the lighting was flat. I can't reply there, but I can here. You can fiddle in PS in Filters-Render-Lighting Effects . . . and give it some depth. I did one, but you don't have Image editing turned on so I did not want to post.

You know you can be both...

Very nice shots.
I also like the second one best.
I think you've done a fine job working with the light you have, and that's what really counts.
Of course her eyes and smile don't hurt you a bit.
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see some more of your work together.

It is an awesome picture using a reading lamp only. You did an excellent job. Very lovely model, and yes, she does have a great smile.

These were great shots. The processing may have been a touch better in the second, but there is just something wonderful about her smile in the first. I look forward to seeing more from you two.
