Emily & Johan
Last Monday night at the Brisbane Camera Club we practised taking portraits. By the end of the night I asked myself "what do you admire most of these young people their beauty, good manners, sense of humour, or patience?" I decided their patience excelled the many other qualities to put up with the demands of that crazy mob of photographers. Anyway, I took this image with a Canon 30D, Sigma Lense 70-300 DG APO Macro, Shutter speed 1/50 sec, Aperture F5.6, ISO-200, Tripod. No Flash as the studio lights and backdrop were provided.
love it too. A beautiful image, love the lights in the eyes of both subjects. My eyes are drawn to what ever they are looking at out of frame.
Lovely!!!
What makes this shot excel are the eyes - both looking off camera - excellent

Great shot....
The only thing I noticed - I think you can see a reflection of one of the studio lights in the eyes of both people.... in both her eyes and his right eye. Not a flaw in any way....
Nice work Zafra. Both are very seasoned models and know their stuff. I shot Johan several weeks ago at the Southport Spit shoot and although he's a pro, some of the best shots were actually when he wasn't posing. Was Xavier there as well?

Thank you all for the comments. The image is as it came from the camera, except converted from raw to jpg and resized. As you all could guess there were quite a few of us trying to get a good angle so it was difficult to get the subject in a perfect angle. This is my first attempt at using studio lighting. The poor models were trying so hard to please all of us that I certaintly have to admire their pantience.
Simon, Xavia was there but she wasn't modeling this time and Joahn now and then told the Emily to be carefull because his girlfriend was watching. I sent them some of my pictures and asked their permission to show this image. I have found that in some of his pictures he appears absent minded, which makes the pictures unusable.
Nice image - I like the balance of the subjects and the warm glow of the image. Yes I'd have liked a bit more even lighting on Johan's face, but hell it's a great image regardless.
