Lucy-Grad Party

Our neighbor's daughter at her graduation party. Shot informally on the front porch, evening lighting.

An informal portrait with natural light.

There's a wonderful naturalness to this portrait, Steve. She seems completely unaffected.

Very good photo. congrats...

 

Steve!! Fantastic.... an actual "natural" portrait on PN. Thanks for sharing. For a further comment I find the white dress, because the face is so soft and slightly subdued, really pulls the eye away. Perhaps a few light adjustments would tone down the dress a tad and bring more attention to this beautiful young lady? I attached an example of my thoughts and I really hope this doesn't conflict with the intent of your portrait. If you don't like it, I'll be glad to remove it. Regardless... Gorgeous... Mike

 

 

Thanks for the comments, Mike. It is a good idea to lighten her face a little. I was noticing it was a little dark myself.

I wish..I dream ... I could take portraits like you...this is another best of yours...great job.... regards, Rajeev.
