Portrait Photo Critique

Portrait Photo Critique


Anto Vega posted this photo in the flickr photo group and it caught my attention. I liked how he used one light, a fast lens and did a little experimentation. One reason I selected this photo for this week is that there was simple ways he can take it to the next level and make it an even better image. Take a listen to this call with Anto to hear how he captured this and the few simple tips I gave him for making it better.

Be sure to add your images to the FroKnows Flick Photo gallery and maybe I will give you a call

    @Dombowerphoto I know you commented on this 4 months ago, but I think he may have added the parasol to add more color. That's my guess anyways

    on my d7000, I just switch to AF-s, and I pick what cube I want to focus on, so I don't think I have this problem.

    Hey Jared, You told him about cutting off the fingers. Could you make a vid showing where you should or shouldnt cut off. I know some times your in a very tight spot and not sure ie elbows or where thanks
