Let me see if I can dig up something and up load it. I'm not planning on doing any kind of intimate types of portraits. I just want to learn how to do them properly.

I think it's a lot of this digital stuff that gets me. I know it's a lot easier than it used to be, but it's a lot of technical stuff. When I was last processing my own photos, I was a young 20-something in a dark room. There's a WHOLE LOT of that processing I'm still needing to learn as well.

when shooting with the lower ISO's you decrease noise in the photo ( the film equivalent of graininess) but you have to be careful about shutter speeds. Anything slower than 1/60 means you can introduce blur into the photo (tripods work well at this point)

The more lighting you have in the room the better. Even turning on a lamp on a table behind you can add enough light to make it better.

If you have to use a flash, get a defuser hood / shield for it and try NOT To aim it AT the target. Bounce it..

For digital I like the Sigma 30mm 1.4 on my D300. I often use a tiffen soft fx 1 or 2 filter which I prefer vs photoshop softening, then, perhaps counter intuitively, I use Topaz Detail to overcome some of the softening effects of the filter. That's what this photo of Dallas Bella was shot with, but with studio lighting instead of portable flash.



You can watch Ebay and sometimes get cheap deals on Fresnel spotlights which are fun to play with during the winter (because 3 or 4 500 watt lights put out a lot of heat). I think this was a Nikon 50mm 1.8 + Softar




Pop up reflectors are great, but cheap white foamcore from Hobby Lobby will work to re-direct light from a window or your flash.

1. The sigma 30 1.4 is a nice lens. On your crop senser d300 equals 45 mm equivalent and magnification of about 0.9x .... or "slightly zoomed out"

2. This pic is surprisingly MAGNIFICENT for a 30 on crop sensor. That, my friend, is an awesome pic.

3. Gotta love those 1.4 lenses. Every bag needs one .... or two. Too bad they often cost more than the camera.

Many thanks, she is truly beautiful and good to work with.

I'd still rather shoot with the ol RB67 for 4x5, but there just isn't enough time since it's only a hobby and I can only shoot and process providers when the wife's out of town.

Too many beautiful women, too little time!
Regards

You fiuggers tend to over think the simple...

A 11 mm 2.8 lense.... You can pretty much do what ever you want with it in a full frame format.

Depth and details ... Be a little more flexible with a 14-70 mm 2.8 lens... Just add a candle for more light, or switch a light off.

Studio type pics... Just add more light and tune the camera.

RM... You are a photoshop photographer.... Take shirty shots, then fix with the computer ... The whores love that shit.

Slower lenses, and boxes around your flash to direct light will give the same effect as fast lenses.. Just takes longer, if you have a model, or a person that is willing to deal with the tinker time... You are good to go!

I think the old fart may still be sore because BDS and I did Amy's photos. We were starting out and trying to do something nice. Or maybe its when I called him Brooke Wild. I don't know but you just can't please everyone. Giggle.

There were also tricks outside the darkroom. Negatives were retouched with pumice powder, razor blades, and pencils. Here's a famous example: Joan Crawford shot by George Hurrell, before and after his technicians finished with her.




I still prefer shooting film, but I now scan the negative and have everything the digital world has to offer in addition to the look of vintage lenses and dynamic range of B&W film.
