Day 338 DIY Portrait Studio

DIY Portrait Studio

I converted my DIY product studio into a portrait studio. The lights weren't the brightest and the background, sheet, was all creased. But I did get lots fo practice and used my camera tripod as a light stand so I could move one of the lights around to mix things up. I made hundreds of photographs in just an hour or two. I first tried out doing self portraits which had a multitude of challenges mostly around composition and focus. Then Laura agreed to pose for me and after much deliberation I decided that I would use this photograph for the day. There were a lot that I liked but something about how she is interacting with the camera caused this one to keep jumping out.
