Day 16, My Brother


IMG_5084.JPG, originally uploaded by solostandfound.

This is my youngest brother Drew. He is a junior at BYU and majoring in International Business. I took this pic as a test shot for my first ever portrait shoot with the full shebang. I bought some lights from a really nice guy on Craigslist, and a backdrop from Ritz . I shot this with two lights with umbrellas and one soft box.

The problem is that I really had to work to clean this up. I had to retouch the creases in the the backdrop. And then some minor crops. This is a test shot and not what I was shooting. I was going to make the best portrait ever for my family. Let's just say that it did not go as planned. First off, having not shot too much with lights, I made some real rookie mistakes. I have a list a mile long for the next time we are together. But after some preliminary fixes the funny shot will be included with the portrait post in few days.

Also, another of Drew, who is available ladies if you are interested, as well as a candid of Drew and my daughter.  I will post the other portraits in a few days when I have time to edit them.

Did I mention that Drew is available?  He even speaks Tagalo and Cebuano!
