hi guys!! this is the original pic i took of my sister-in-law, Pam, & her mother, Sandra. Pam said she really likes how i do portraits, and she and Sandra wanted a momma/daughter pic. Sandra said she wanted the pic to be zoomed in on their faces...and they wanted to POSE outdoors for it. I'm not real good at takin' portraits when people pose. when i take pics of people, like Kemal or Jessie, i like them just to do their thing and shoot the whole time. candid pics are so much easier for me, but Sandra didn't want that. so, here's one i really liked because they're both smiling and look relaxed. it was my job to get them to smile. that wasn't so easy. our family is going thru some really hard times right now. tried so hard on vacation to be silly and try to be there for everyone...not easy when i'm hurtin' so bad inside. sorry...anyway, i really wanna to this one right for them...'cause it's important to them. Sandra is like half native American i believe. she and Pam have a lot of red tones in their skin. i just had a hard time with their portraits. any advice would be so appreciated guys! thanks! sorry for rambling.
