You like my F stops, bb?

as long as at it is a 2.8 it works for me.

I was going to say I like your penis but I guess I can come over and hold your F stops if that's what you're in to.

Treating one another with good manners in any line of work, has benefits for all parties involved.
This is the only point I have tried to raise in this thread and I stand by it, and I don't think it makes me an "angry stripper" or a brat.
I really doubt the point of this thread was to shame members into refinancing their houses and worshipping models- Some guys care about getting the best experience out of the site possible (depending on their reasons for being there which we may or may not understand). A huge part of this is how one interacts with the models, so for some people the information may be useful.

Bailing now :handgestures-salute:

Double post! I'm telling myself it's OK because it's back on topic! :shhh:
That stuff up there! ^^^ In the cam world both sides are providing something to the other and a little common courtesy goes a long way.
I always thank the person who took me private at the end, it would seem really odd and rude for it to not be met with equal manners. :?

Hold up, what are you shooting at a 2.8 f stop? :think: You do realize there are plenty of other f stops and 2.8 isn't meant to shoot everything, right?

Anyhow... this is the shot that got me the job... Girls, it can take years.. but always remember - it can come down to one shot.

This "One shot" that it came down to sucks.

One light - a 'half light'

The composition is shit. If you're going to cut off toes in the composition, you may as well cut out her whole foot! And just in case you decide to take me up on that last bit of advice, remember to never crop at joints (clearly, judging by the rest of the images in that tumblr thread, you need a reminder of this as well).
Your DOF leaves something to be desired. I also notice quite a bit of noise in the image that suggests you were cranking the ISO at around 1600 (just a swag, there) which in a low light situation is just fine... sacrifices have to be made.
But at such a high ISO... you might consider bumping your shutter speed up to at least 200 to avoid that distracting motion blur on her heels. That is, of course, assuming you've opened up your aperture a bit to compensate first.
The lighting is also suspect here. My first instinct is to say that this is window light with the sun coming in nearly horizontally through the window.
However, if you did indeed use a 6'x6' light modifier for this as you mentioned earlier in the thread... it was over kill... and judging by the harsh shadows, was either very under powered (which might also explain your need for such a high ISO setting) or very far away from the model (which would negate your statement of having to work in a small space). You could have produced much better results with a much smaller light source which would have also saved you some space in that tiny room you were working in. Hell, you could have produced better results by just bouncing a bare strobe off the ceiling.

So let me wrap this up a bit for you:
*concentrate on your composition. Check your corners, check the limbs, check focus.
*High ISO in low light is acceptable... but adjusting your ISO should be your last option. Open up your aperture first... then compensate for motion blur with a higher shutter speed. If you still don't have enough light to properly expose your image... then bump up your ISO... or just wait until your model has stopped moving to press the shutter release.
*Use a smaller light source, closer to your model, to produce softer shadows and less dramatic fall off. Also bump up your flash exposure so that you can lower your ISO. Remember that the size of your light source in relation to the distance to your subject can be compensated easily... you don't have to use a huge modifier! And use of that huge modifier is negated when you back it away from your model.
*When providing a "test" image to the model, put a huge ass "PROOF" watermark across it to dissuade her from using it on her Tumblr... Never let a "test" shot hit the open market. When using a "test" shot for an avatar... expect to get some shit for it. Do some touch-ups, color correction, exposure corrections, get rid of that ugly orange-this-is-a-toy-gun-don't-shoot-me barrel...

*Last but foremost... And this pretty well proves that none of the above information means jack shit to either you or the person that actually took these pictures... Do not claim to be a professional photographer and not expect that someone will check the metadata on the image itself only to find that it was shot with a Canon PowerShot A3100 IS (point and shoot available for $199.68 on Amazon if any of the ladies in this thread are considering a new camera).

Anyone else here put a girl in front of a $100,000.00 light?

That is respect - not platitudes.
I could stand in front of a million dollar mansion... doesn't mean I live in it. :lol:

What is the difference? some girls may want to know.
Oh, sorry, I thought you were male.
Mmmmm, Nordling. Talk f stops, ISOs, apertures, exposures and depth of field to me bb. Mmmm. Let's discuss the golden ratio, focal point, focal length and glass next.

I'm so hot right now! Tomorrow we'll talk about batch processing, embedded watermarks, copyrights and RAW files. :drool:

You're an idiot with no sense of professionalism, whatsoever. You take shitty pictures of one person. It's no surprise that you have one 'client' and I'd venture a guess as to say that you are just attempting to take credit for work a model did herself because you don't think she'll ever find out since it doesn't appear that she's worked in 2 months.

Also, Google 'spelling and grammar' because you so obviously need lessons.

I bet some of the so-called "nigger photographers" would say you're nothing but a dumbass cracker GWC with a Kodak One-Time Use camera from CVS. Yeah, that's right...I said it. Oooooh.....

'GWC' stands for 'guy with camera', in case you didn't know. Those are the talentless fools who just like to give themselves the title of 'photographer' when all they really do is just get women to get naked for them, do a bunch of spread-eagle "pink" shots, and then call it "artistic nude." :lol:

Well, I get paid to light for photographers and that was a test... no pink bb. We played with guns.

I have actually taken shitty pictures of more than one person.



Are you attempting to imply that you've somehow worked with Rihanna? Hiding 200 feet away in the bushes and snapping pictures while she's working with real professionals simply doesn't count.

No. I like the song so I posted it. I have worked for her/jay-z but it had nothing to do with photography.

'sup with the angry stripper shit? It gets old fast.

Follow your own advice bb. Don't be a dick.
