Quite a few photos to give any real critique on, if you picked maybe 1 or 2 we could critique a little more specifically however,
Those all look very good for a first shoot! Working with a model, whoever it is can be tricky the first few times. Personally my favorite is #9650 because of the "natural expression". I think that is one of only a couple where she doesn't look "posed". I don't mean to sound like I'm giving you a hard time for that hehe, its still something I'm working on as well, trust me. Directing a model is tough, and just takes practice and a LOT of time examining photos from pros, that's me at least, I try to have a least a few shots pre-visualized before I shoot, so I can direct them to do exactly what I want, and evoke confidence; remember you are the director. I think to make these photos really stand out some even basic post processing is really required, that will bring them up to where they belong. Technically speaking most look very good to me, just a tad bit underexposed for skin tones overall, but I would correct that in post processing; better to do it then than lose data. Also, really watch your focus, I spotted a couple that were very out of focus, and then a few that were a tad soft, which is "okay" if its going on Facebook or something, but if you want them to look great, focus has to be spot on; tack sharp, no exceptions. Unless of course you are getting creative, however thats a whole different story ;) Good colors though, and your sister looks great in these, very good first shoot, keep shooting, can't wait to see more! Oh and, if you want to see more portrait work, check out modelmayhem, this site is good, but that one is specifically for fashion and portraits if that's more what you want to see. Best of luck :D

Alright everyone, I have been working on some more images slowly, however I have a question. Here are two prints, with all the same work on photoshop, just the exposure is adjustment is different obviously. I like the second one better myself, I think it creates a larger range of zones, while still retaining detail in her coat, opinions?
Thank you!

No additional lighting (I wish) but the use of a light meter really makes it much easier, but I think mostly the effect comes from post processing...

Thank you very much everyone for the positive comments! I really do appreciate it! Its incredible to see how much time ends up going into a few simple photos, with planning, shooting, and especially post processing, so it is great hearing positive feedback!

Good day! I already posted these in the "Post your photos" section, however I am looking for some critique :D I'd love to hear your thoughts, comments, and suggestions with these photos! I have to give some credit to my friend, she did a great job modeling! One thing I noticed when uploading them to photobucket was that some of the saturation was lost :o Oh well, something to keep in mind, thanks for looking!

This was a very fun shoot! She is a friend of mine and agreed to model for me! She deserves some credit, as she did a fantastic job! Best I have worked with yet! I would love to hear some thoughts and opinions, on both composition and post processing. One thing to keep in mind that I noticed was that after uploading the photos to photobucket it seems to have taken away some saturation :eek:, which is a little frustrating...:( Thanks!

Exactly...I already have a Metz 48, and its great for putting on top of the camera and for really quick lightweight shooting. I have tried it in my "home" studio (aka my garage haha) and it doesn't have the power I see myself needing in the future. Those can be quite price too, although one doesn't need super expensive stuff for the strobist effect if manual adjustment is used, which worked well with a $10 sunpak I bough used ha. It gets it done, but so far I am loving the power of the Elinchrom. You all have definitely convinced me to go with lighting, and after viewing some videos of the vegabond mini, I am very excited to be able to do location shoots. It looks so easy with that, plus its only 4lbs! Thanks for all the advice everyone, I really appreciate it!

The d-lites I have also have the built in skyport, which I love so far, no cords, and fires perfectly every time. The BXRI's have some more features though, definitely something to consider, plus those are actually swiss made ;) Thanks for your input!

Good evening everyone! I have a tough decision to make coming up. I recently sold some photo related items, and now have some money for more equipment. At this point I am just finishing my first year of photography classes in school, with another fun year coming up, then off to the university to get a bachelors in photo-media. I plan on making photography a career, so my excuse for buying equipment is that it is an "investment" :p Anyways, I was originally planning on using the money to upgrade from my K-x to a K-7 as there are several very desirable features that I see on the K-7 that will be useful with a higher skill level. However I just recently purchased my first monolight strobe, a Elinchrom D-lite4, and I am thinking it might be wise to get another, and most of all, I am seeing times where it would be very helpful to have some more mobility, with the use of a battery pack; specifically the Alien Bee Vegabond mini, which just came out, and from past research it sounds that Paul Buff puts out some quality products, maybe not the gangster status of ProPhoto, but decent. My question isn't necessarily about specific gear, rather, should I invest in increased lighting and mobility, being able to shoot on scene, or would the camera be better to upgrade? My curriculum dictates that the next year of photo classes will include at least 1 studio class each quarter, so I feel like there will be quite a bit of potential to use lighting. I want to make sure I buy wisely, aquring equipment that can be used for awhile, even if that means an increased expense. I appreciate your replies! :D

Item Description
For sale is a mint Pentax DA*55mm, it comes with all the original paperwork, and the box, plus the Velcro bag it came in, plus the lens hood. I did buy a B&W UV filter for it, which I will leave on for the sell. There are no scratches or blemishes anywhere, flawless condition all around. The lens simply wasn't flexible enough for my needs. I have only had it for about a month and a half now. I would love to trade for a DA* 16-50mm, or a K-7 body. Let me know if you are interested and need more photos or details! Thanks for taking a look! :)
