I shot fashion, for a school project:

Here's an outtake from a shoot I did yesterday. I won't use this one in the actual series but it's a freaky portrait nonetheless.

Colormunki Photo will calibrate your screen and your printer. Works like a charm.

From the same shoot. Not sure about this to be honest. Can't put my finger...
Keith: look at the shadows on Lucy Liu and look at the shadows on the photo you took. Very different. The location of the light relative to the model and the lens is different. (That doesnt mean you...
(PS: I like the calmness in that photo. Its a nice shot!)
Technically speaking Leibovitz light is VERY different from yours, so it's more of a starting point than a replication. Avedon light is very precise. If/when you nal it: it is very specific in terms...
I shot with the 5D Mark II and the only lens I have left (being a student and unemployed, unfortnately, I had to sell all other lenses I had). That is the 24-105.
One light (Broncolor) on a...
No. I always use one light only, no additional panels (black or white) or reflectors. I like to keep it really simple. Complex sets make me nervous ^_^ (and insecure).
I am kind of happy I asked the model to just keep on turning and moving. After she did, I could capture her sort of between moments, which led to this:

There is a menu item for it..
AND it is in the official manual..
Tip: more dramatic lightring works better with flower photography. Look into how Mapplethorpe lit his flower series: those are considered flawless in many a photographers book.
Canon Ball: Apple just released a Digital Camera upgrade to support new camera models. Maybe this is why files were not supported before? (Lightroom was updated too in 2.7 a lot of new cams were...
PS: If price is an issue: try and find possibilities to get Lightroom at academic prices. Are you a student or do you have kids in collage etc? You or they may apply for a discount through various...
Wait for Adobe Lightroom 3. It's about to be released. It features much improved noise handling and demosaicing routines that are jaw dropping.
The best quality images I ever created came...
Some old skool bling in this portrait:

Better gear rarely makes for better photographs.
Spectacular classic photographs from world famous potographers were made with gear FAR inferiour to todays entry level gear.
So unles...
Yeah that's Model Mayhem for you 99,9% wannabes with attitudes acting like jerks and making demands. Horrible.
I call modeling agencies these days asking to do test shoots with new faces....
Thanks Rodger: people are always so against umbrellas but that picture was lit with one umbrella only, as the only light source, and nothing else. ^_^
Umbrellas rule!

@original poster:
It is not your equipment that will make the difference. It will be the person who operates it. Many many great and classic photographs that were made with equipment far...
You need to suppy us with more details. What was the aperture (DOF) and what was the shutter speed for example. Did you shoot raw? If so, did you apply proper sharpening? Etc. Etc.
