This is a bit different technique applied, or totally off the way which we intended to use for our studio portraits, not using flash lighting at all.

With the joy of using the cream machine, these were shot using available lights from the side windows. No softening or effect PP applied, adjusted tiny bit in WB and curves to compensate the skin tones.

really like the lighting on these.

good stuff.

I like it alot, what lens and settings were you using? These portraits photos are very soft, it has a warm and fuzzie feeling

I like these a great deal - just love the warmth from the natural lighting. These just across as more romantic/softer and seem to portray I nicer look - just a visual thing I guess, but I'm a fan of natural lighting.

I'd guess that this was with the 50mm at 1.4-1.8?

My guess this is the 85 1.4 or 1.8... but more on the 1.4 side of things ?

I like the natural lighting and agree with paul that they feel warmer.. almost dreamy.

Thanks all.

I, too, like very much natural lights.


These were all taken with the 85mm f/1.4 at f/1.4 for the dreamy effect.

Lovely

Natural light rule

No 3 is a stunner (this is one of your B&W conv - right?). Great shots Yi-P.
Cheers, Mick

Yi-P,

Crop #3 square. There's too much space above the head at the moment.

Thanks all,


As suggested by Gary, the square crop:

Yi-P,

That's nailed this one.

Beautiful!

Thanks Gary, the square crop sure worked out like magic. Well worth for Dee to print and frame it

You have the lighting spot on for each of these - fantastic work! The square crop is definitely the way to go

I'm going to print off a couple of images for each of the ladies, to give to them when I give them their CDs.

What I'll do is send everyone a link to an FTP site where you can upload the images, along with your contact details. We'll drag the files down and bur the CDs for the ladies, with separate folders for each of you (the photographers) so that they can see who did what, and if they wish, make contact with you if need be.

Are there any requirement of file sizes and numbers needed? Im assuming you asking for JPEGs, right?

Shall we cherry pick the pics or just upload them all as we please?

No set requirements in terms of size and numbers, and by all means, cherry pick to your heart's content.

What I would likt though, is to be able to give them something meaningful, which means large-ish and high quality jpgs, with your copyright embedded.

Bearing in mind that neither of these ladies are professional models, there's little likelihood of the images being used beyond their own personal needs, and so I think that there's little harm in giving them something useful for printing for, say, their mum or boyfriend.

Lovely work Yi-P. I particularly like the first image and the square crop.
