Any thoughts on this shoot I did for my friends' band? Honestly, if anything good came out of it, it was purely by accident. I didn't really have any direction in mind, they didn't either, and because of time restrictions we pretty much shot between 1PM and 4PM, which isn't exactly a super time for natural light. Any feedback is appreciated. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jontomassi/sets/72157621950643514/detail/

I wouldn't be so short if I had legs! I agree about the WB too. I need a grey card. I loving suck at eyeballing it.

ConfusedUs posted:Do you get what I'm saying, though? It's hard to put together a coherent portrait set without at least some idea of what you want it to look like before you start. Even if it's something generic like "I want them to look tough" or "I want pretty mountains as scenery," at least that's something to build on. You have a foundation. Somewhere to start. No, I totally get you. I didn't really like the arrangement either. It was really last minute so even though I was willing to scope out some locations, flesh out some ideas with them, etc., I had absolutely no time. They liked and were able to use at least one of the pictures (dis one), but I wasn't really 100% happy with the whole experience. Something to bear in mind for next time. I hadn't realized it until you put it into words, but the fact that I had like zero direction really was devastating. It also made directing them during the shoot all but impossible. I mean, aside from making sure everyone is in frame, what can you really say to your model(s) when you don't know what you're trying to convey in an image?
