Start with either a #8 (light yellow) or a #15 (medium yellow).
Probably the #8 is best for a starter. If you don't think it is
enough of an effect after a portrait session, move up to the
#15. If you have a good relatonship with your photo store, get
both and see how they compare on the same roll of film.
