Headshots

So tonight I practiced taking headshots on the Front desk specialist (Office manager) of the studio - AJ. She was a perfect subject to practice on, since she is an actor/director. Tomorrow morning I will be taking headshots of the FM Ballet company and I have never taken headshots in my life. I've been studying others work for posing, lighting, etc. Here are a few of my favorite shots from tonight (this is a make shift photo studio - the back drop is white muslin and the lighting is work lights)

This was in the first grouping of pictures I took - they get better after this. She tried 3 different outfits.

She added props :) Her glasses. Which was good b/c than i had to really watch the lighting to make sure it wouldn't reflect in her glasses.

This is the "Glamour" shots pictures... I say it is very commercial. Matt liked this one a lot.

So what do you think?? Remember this is my first time shooting headshots...i'm actually pretty proud of myself. I know I can just improve.
