This album is my first one. I took the pics during my 1st and 2nd tries at an

in home make shift studio using a black sheet as a backdrop.I am just looking

for any advice and feedback.

 

Thanks

Very nice. That one with the boy and the teddy (19) struck me as not as good as the others - didn't like the composition. And the one with the soft focus - to me, it seemed overdone - a light touch would be better. This is just opinion, for what it may be worth. I have no particular qualifications.

You culd try getting a little less light on the back drop, or raise the black levels in ps. I can see hints of a wrinkled backdrop in there. Some of my earlier stuff had the same problems. They are nice photos though, good first effort.

Thanks. i dont have PS but I use Picasa to edit. Hoping to get PS soon.

The next light you should invest in is an overhead hair light. This will help dark hair from disappearing into the background. If you are using flash, then some slaves with a diffusion panel is a cheap and easy solution.
