>>2860881I typically use an off camera flash or a bounce, or a combination of both.
But all the photos I posted above were all natural lighting. Thanks for the critique, all go do that in Lightroom real quick and see how I like it.
I'm very critical when I critique my own photos, and focus was my biggest issue today. I messed up on the library shots and could've bumped the ISO to 800 and had a faster shutter speed than 1/60 prevented the little bit of shake (blurriness) to the photos. I used a 85mm for all the photos above, so handheld shots a 1/60 are a little harder than what I am used to shooting portraits with, a 50mm.
Here's an example of an off camera flash being bounced off a white posterboard about even with the model. Did this a little over a month ago, same model as today.
