1000d pics ur C&C welcome

1, dont use max aperture when shooting this type of portrait, stop down 2 stops. you'd get better sharpness.

2, dont use on camera flash when model is against the wall, at the least not directly, it casts a shadow on the wall, which is ugly.

3, thee is a lot of post processing required to make these shots look good.

Hi everyone ..here i am posting some pics for my new canon 1000d with kit lens ..ur comments are welcome ...
I don't do this type of photography, but if I did:
  • Model would stand further away from the wall to reduce that ugly shadow
  • Another light/flash to give her eyes more sparkle
 
Welcome!

You might want to look at getting a better flash that what comes on the camera. Also a grag fong puffer flash is cheap on ebay and would also help.

Keep shooting. :)

I took a course in art last winter. I learnt the difference between a fine oil painting, and a mechanical thing, like a photograph. The photograph shows only the reality. The painting shows not only the reality, but the dream behind it.

To the OP:
In case of confusion, Granamere mistyped Gary Fong Diffuser.

If you want to get good at this kind of photography, joining a camera club may give you access to the extra flashes/lights needed, professional models and plenty of help and advice.
 
Take into a account what has been said but also try the following:

Set white balance to "Flash"

Use a lower flash compensation level and a slightly slower shutter speed, this allows the flash to be used as a fill rather than the primary light source.

But still the best solution is to get a flash with a bounce/swivel head.

Enjou your cam!
