Christy's Shoot AlbumAwww yes... Sorry about the long wait! Finally another
REAL post, one that has photos! If you recall, Christy was actually the very first model I shot, she volunteered to help me start my portfolio. Well, I kinda sucked at the time, so giving her a proper reshoot was the only way I can repay her. She seemed to like them... phew!
This shoot was also my first shoot with two flash units, a Canon 580EX II (that I recently bought) and a 580EX I that I borrowed from a friend. The 580EX II was on my camera with a sto-fen diffuser, and the 580EX I was on a tripod, being triggered wirelessly via the Canon's trigger technology. I still have much to learn, but I think I am getting better!

| And we end with a beautiful B&W! She was actually fixing her cloths, but I saw this shot later. |

Mike, those were awesome!!! I was really worried that I wasn't giving you a whole lot to work with - just felt off during the entire shoot...but you turned it around. That's one of the true marks of a good photographer right there!
Mike,
Nicely done. That second shot is the hero of the bunch by far. Great lighting and excellent composition.
The last one has a nice feel to it as well.
Great work!
