I always say how much I stink at people photos. But I didn't realize how much fun it could be to take photos of a willing model. This is Jeanie (my hair stylist). She's into photography too and knows I struggle with people photos and offered herself up. She brought all these cool outfits and props, and we drove around and found some interesting backdrops for photos. She's so comfortable in front of the camera and knows how to pose and is so beautiful I just had fun! Here's one of the shots we got. I know I still have a long way to go, but I think this is better than the usual line-up-and-say-cheese snapshot type I usually get. I know her white hat is blown out and I cut off her hands. Other CC for me? I appreciate it! Thanks for looking! Settings: DRebel XT with 100mm macro lens (first time I've really used it as a portrait lens--very nice) AV mode ISO400 F5.6 SS1/640 CWB.
Here's my color version:
And SOOC:

Great shots and color! See people are fun :) You did a great job.
I really like you SOOC shot and the Choco B/W is really pretty! Awesome job :)
I think you did a great job. It miust be nice to have such a willing model. I think I like the second one the best becasue the warmth from the guitar takes away from her hat.
AWESOME! I love them!
i love the 1st and last one! so GREAT!!!!!!

I can say in this instance, I like the SOOC best. The warmth in the tones is really nice. The perspective is lovely, very pensive feeling.
I love all 3 versions! She is stunning. I don't even mind the cut off hands for once, I just love the overall feel of this shot SO MUCH! You did great!
Lucky you to have such a beautiful, willing model! :) I'm glad that you're feeling better about your "people" shots, too!
GREAT SHOT!!! You did an awesome job with this people photo...don't sell yourself short! :)
These are beautiful, really beautiful.
Cool shots. I love the composition.
You did awesome! I like that bnw and the sooc best. How fun to have a "model!"
I think you did great, and I agree the SOOC is amazing. The colors are perfect, so you can't say you stink at people photography for sure.
You did so great...and she is beautiful! You are great a people photos. And oh yes, willing models are always the best kind. Your sooc is awesome, so you can't go wrong with the other two.
Wow!! You did great!!
beautiful photo, the sooc is just beautiful great exposure I really like your black and white on this. It works well with the picture.
Neat conversions! Great job!
What fun shots!! You rock at people photos too!
I think you do a great job with people photos! I love this shot. Great pose. I'm loving that white hat, too!:)
I love the shot, and especially the first conversion. It's really a beautiful shot!
The cut-off hand doesn't bother me at all, I think you got a great shot here!
Great job, Becky! Sounds like you had a great time. You even did terrific SOOC!
You did great! People are definitely my downfall, they move! My favorites are the first and last versions.
Regarding my photo today, I don't know what kind of flower it is, but thought it was pretty! It is small, but not teeny-tiny like the hyacinth.
This is an awesome shot! I love that first one!
This is an awesome shot! I love that first one!
