Thanks, Paul.
I should be able to re-crop 5302 to avoid the knee-bump. The window
shot was one I resisted doing nearly all day, as it was just a bad time
of day to try to shoot outside. The sun was extremely strong here
yesterday.
She seems to be pleased with the shots, though not completely ecstatic
-- mainly because I haven't done any editing beyond cropping and basic
color corrections -- which I'll be spending quite a bit of time on over
the next week.

I like the shot of her looking through the window. Nice pose and framing. You
could work on the rendering and tonality a bit. I also like 5302, although her
right knee bumping the edge of frame is a bit unhappy. Clipping body parts
usually works as long as its a big cut and works well within the frame. Small
cuts right at the edge of the frame usually don't work -- ditto, cutting of
just the feet.
A good first effort.

Hi all,
Well, I had my very first photo shoot today. All things considered, I think it
went fairly well. I did get some good shots, a couple of great shots, and many
that will wind up being salvageable. Here are a few shots to give a reasonable
approximation:

Nothing went as planned, and I hadn't the foggiest notion what I was doing.
But, somehow, I managed not to lose my friend (Megan, the model) -- at least
until she's seen the images. There are a few that have clunky backgrounds that
I intend to obscure at some point. Beyond that, does anyone have any hits or
tips that I might use to make the images look better?
Comments, critiques, and advice are, of course, welcome.
Best,
Walt
