Top tips on how to take portrait photos! – Snigger

Submitted by The Imperfect Mum on Fri, 27/04/2012 - 03:46.

History: Kelly (I.M 2) and I used to work together here. Kelly was the production editor, I was the Creative Director.

Scene: We had taken our kids to Macca’s Redlynch, Cairns. We had already been there 3 hours- Happy kids = Happy Mum’s..

Me: “Hey Kelly I need you to take some new photos of me. “My hair has changed so much so I need an updated pic”

Kelly: Ok, then when do you want to do it?

Me: “Oh ummm.. we could do it now”?

Kelly: *Confused look* What! Here?

Me: “Yeah I will just whack some lippy on”.

Kelly: “All I have is my phone”.

Me: ”That’ll do, even if there just practice ones”.

Kelly: Ok, well sit over there, there is a chocolate wall that’ll be a good back-ground.

Me: Cool.

This was the result, how bloody HILARIOUS! we couldn’t believe it! – obviously they are low res.. But the lighting (in some) and background were perfect!

Ohhh and I would LOVE your opinion on which one is your favorite? (I have mixed up the numbers.. So not good at this technical stuff..
