Window Light

Another shot from the last portraits. Such a pretty smile and the light coming in from the windows is so flattering.

I love doing this kind of portrait – catching the joy in a young person is so amazing.

I took this portrait using a bit of bounce flash to fill in her face. The flash was flagged to block direct light and bounced off the wall and ceiling. The walls and ceiling are a nice light brown wood and I think gave off a nice golden light. Focus was on her eyes and I used a very shallow f/2.2 aperture.
