Reflection) This assignment was really fun, I pretty much just told them to do what they do best and I will make adjustments if needed. Posing is a tad difficult because when it is staged it does not feel as natural. I went in with a few ideas for posing but pretty much just went with the flow. The flash settings were not too hard until we threw Lonnie into the mix. Photographing darker skin is always a bit harder since we seem to cast more shadows especially when in shot with a lighter toned person. Since I have that problem when I am the subject I had a bit more of an idea as to how to adjust it the best I could. Having a shadow effect also just makes the image more ominous sometimes which I like. It definitely differs from shoot to shoot and person to person.
