    Andrew, I'm so in awe of your photos, I wouldn't know how to begin to critique them! Seriously! All I see is goodness! Those are beautiful! And your niece is an absolute cutie-pie!!!

    The first pic is just a TAD too bright.

    Great pics regardless though!!

    Re: Testing some reflectors

    Those are awesome!! I *love* the second picture. I think it is absolutely perfect!

    Now that it's been said, I'll agree that the first one is a touch to bright, but they are both amazing shots! Nice work!

    Re: Testing some reflectors

    have to agree with Mooingtricycle , main light does look to be ''blowing'' out skin at leftside, overpowers the fill ( your reflector ), I have only just got back into portraiture mind you and I hate doing C & C , great subject , loving the coloured B& W , ( works very well ) ... try turning the output of main light down a bit .

    an example of one of my recent portrait shoots


    idea is you want the main light one stop more than fill , kinda gives it a balance

    all that said , my macro is *rap in comparision to your own
    1.0 Graziani Pastel
    0.1 Bumblebee
    0.1 Albino

    Thanks for the CC everyone. This is honestly my beginning rap into human photography, so these are probably the few and only shots you will see from me, of people lol.
