So tell me the truth? do they look over processed? she kinda looks plasticy no?

Shot #1



Shot #2



Shot #3 (My fav)



So we're away on vacation, kids are bored at the table, and my 7 year old daughter asked me to take a few shots... whaddaya think? I promise these are straight from the camera, no PP at all... shot with my 50mm 1.8 (which is over 20 years old - and still the sharpest lens I own)

They look a little underexposed. Models now a days are using so much silicon. I prefer them more natural.
 
Too much airbrushing, and she looks a little fake...

This is a very good start.

Please learn more to use the whiteblance and a correct exposure.

Learning hwo to use the flash olso will be a very good idea.

Good luck

I hope you realize I was kidding. These photos need a bit of
sharpening and some could use a little bit of cropping to improve the
compositions. Nice job for right out of the camera.

Morris, you must be a bachelor! Women don't want sharp photos, they bring out wrinkles and pimples.

Thanks Morris.

Totally understood it. I know they were a bit under exposed. The batteries in my SB600 died... I bought more today.

I so wish I had bought the 70-300 before this trip. There are loads of beautiful birds... even say a Tucan today (first one in the wild I ever saw).. will post a few when I return from vacation.

Shot with Canon?

(just kidding - if one remembers some ppl saying "Canon skin tones shots look plastic")
 
The same old model pose, sitting on a dog. Be more creative.

Thanks and good night

Thanks Joe, Sure does have a resemblance, but I think your model might have had a bit of aesthetic surgery.. her cheek bones are just to perfect!

Wow, I like that first one... the way you caught the wind blown hair across her face... the way you captured her expression, those mesmerizing eyes and her sumptuous lips... nice bokeh in the background... lol, the pictures are a little underexposed, but still very nice, especially with no PP :-).

Nice looking...but I agree with the other poster, she seems to be fake.
