I was only questioning because I don't like to give c/c unless the poster wants some and there was no mention in your post that you did. Most people post in the spirit of learning. But there was no need to take them down.... was just asking....didn't intend to offend if I did.

Sorry, I was just in a mood when I read your post.
I know you meant no ill intentions, like I say, I was just in a mood.
I guess to answer your question, no, I'm not really looking for C&C.
I'm happy with the shots, the kids happy with them, and her folks are very happy with them.
So even if you were to say something like, I don't know, it's to dark, or something like that,
I wouldn't really care cause everyone involved with the shot is happy with it.
So, I guess maybe I was just showing something that I did over the weekend.
So, now that I'm over my "mood", here are a couple of the shots.
The shot from the challenge, and, the kids a bookworm.
A couple from the studio.
With her glasses on. "I had to talk her into this shot"
What a striking young lady. Seems quite studious and serious in these shots. I love her expression and the light on her face/eyes in that first one. I'm glad you talked her into the glasses shot! Nice variety in this set. I like 'em!

Comments and constructive critique always welcome!
Mind telling what all you did for the first one? I have some Twilight fans here that would love me to shoot them in that style.
All in all I really like them.
Thanks.
First off, all of my flashes have NO manual settings.
So when I use them off camera, I get the full flash power.
I have a flat panel flash in the book, with 4 or 5 yellow gels on it, plus some paper blocking some of the flash. LINK TO FLASH
I have a canon 420ex with a diffuser and a shoot through umbrella at her feet trying to put some light on the book cover.
Another canon 420ex behind her shooting at the background trying to get a glowing frame around her.
Note that her left hand is holding all the "stuff" in place in the book.
The biggest problem I had was trying to tone down the brightness coming off of the flash in the book.
With all the gels on it, and I still had to shoot at f16 at 1/200 to keep from blowing out her hair.
All the flashes had cactus v4 receivers, and the camera a cactus v4 transmitter.
If you try this, make sure your model doesn't have a double jointed thumb.
Half of the shots I took look like her thumb is broken.
This is what it looked like straight from the camera.
(OK, it's not the same shot, but it is the same setup):D

I guess I don't know why I posted them.
