week 6 window lighting

This week I honestly did not take many photos.  I had a lot going on.  I start a new job tomorrow and had to read about the new job over the weekend as a last minute request by the new boss.  (She told me she will do Q&A so I spent my weekend memorizing.)

The first few photos I took in my home by my main source of good lighting.  The photos came out ok.  The last 2 I took after getting my hair done with my mother.  Taking car photos, I have discovered, is an excellent source of natural light if you park in the right spot.  For the photo of my mother, I had her roll her window down rather than take her photo with the window up.  (She told me I better make her look good since I was all in her space and face lol)  I hope this is ok mom!  The last two I took in my car after on my way home.  I attempted to do a selfie with my mom, but in her small car, the angle I would have to take the photo in left us pretty dark so I didn't bother.  There wouldn't have been any brightness from the sunlight.

  1. Okay good... you are paying attention to the light on the face and working with it intentionally. The last way to improve portraiture is to use a longer lens, rather than the wide angle that is the default on phone cameras....
