DuckBOT posted:Just got a 430EX SpeedLite and 85mm f/1.8 prime (both for relatively cheap!). That's the problem I've found with the 85mm f/1.8- you really need to watch your focus. It's hard to see on the LCD, but if on the computer you zoom in, sometimes the wrong part is emphasized, like in your picture. Her jeans/bottom part of her shirt are the most in focus, where as the face isn't... and that's where everyone's eyes going to be looking in a portrait. As for the composition, it's pretty alright. Like you said, the bra strap but also some of the background elements could be eliminated or positioned so they aren't so distracting (like the blanket on the bottom).

I've been working on some portraits for class, and I think this is the best I've done so far, especially in terms of lighting. It helps that I've been using my friends so far in pictures, but the real test will be someone that I don't know so well. And my professor says that I can skip a pre-req so I can take a real studio class next semester!
