Yeah, I'm pretty sick about the crop. I hadn't thought about the hair issue, culturally. Here's the other version but the background isn't quite as punchy. FYI - Reynaldo, I achieved this particular dropped out background by aiming a cheap Sunpak strobe (with a slave feature) at the background from above. Using a light meter, just make sure it's about 2 stops hotter than the foreground -- that should take care of the flare.
Hi, Rob. Nice. I always crop head but I think here I wouldn?t cut the head. In Brazil the "the way the hair is arranged" is very important. Many weddings here delay hours just because of the hair (and make up). But tell me, is she really going to get married? She is beautiful. That?s what I havent got to do: separate model from background. When I use a white background, somehow, I get a flare. Nice photo.
