Swantje will marry at the end of the month. G will be the photographer and I will be his assistent... Let's see how all this ends up... I hope not in our divorce...
Anyway... I got already my Demb diffusers... They are fantastic. I like them a lot! They are very easy to install and easy to store. I got them in less than 5 days, and I didn't pay any tax for them.
Last Saturday they were here to take some test pictures, and I ofered them a picture to place in the table for the gifts.
As always I had as a background my black bed cloth, so I was a bit limited. About lighting I had a studio flash with an umbrella, my flash in the camera with the flip it and diffusers, and a golden reflector I used in some pictures to give light on Swantje's hair.. I really don't know if the combination was good, but I think I had better light this time. Here you have some pictures along with some doubts that came out too...
About the composition...
There is a huge difference in heights. How should I work my composition in pictures like this one?
#1
In the studio I placed her in a pile of books to have them closer but what to do in the wedding?
#2
In this pose, I worked my lines and curves. I wanted to have something to go for at the bottom of the picture. I like also their natural smile... In this picture I had the studio flash bounce to the ceiling to avoid shadows in his shirt.
#3
Here I turned them the other way round to play golden light in Swantjes hair. Do you think it worked? Probably not many would agree about this crop, but ... any comments about the crop are welcome...
#4
Here is another pose I like. It is a pitty I removed the golden reflector... but still we can see the difference.
#5
Thanks so much for any comment or advice to improve my pictures ...
