My kiddo, Rachel.

Paul Iddon

Again, not my usual stuff, and not my strongest, but always worth having a go!

This is my lass Rachel. She is 11 years old and cannot pose for peanuts. Mind you, I can't direct for toffee!

Not to be fazed, we still had a go at a portrait amongst the buttercups and this is the result.

C&C as always.

Paul, not a bad try and a cute gal. At least your got yours to pose for you. Two things....1. get something to hold over her to block the sun from hitting her. A professional reflector or just a sheet of foam core or insulation from 84 Lumber. Just something to block the sun. That will make a vast improvement. 2....Whenever you lean a subject on their hands get them to barley touch the hands. When they lean too hard it bunches up the face as in your photo. Keep on posting.

Thanks for the advice Charles.

As I say, this is out of my comfort zone, and hers, but one day we'll try again!
