A friend of the family contacted me about doing some her senior pictures. I just picked bought my shoot through umbrella last week and wireless triggers. So this was my first time out using them. I would really like some thoughts on the pics..

I used a promaster 7500EDF flash with promaster v2 wireless triggers. The triggers worked great...as long as the sync speed was not greater than 1/200.. So i am going to definitly need to invest in pocketwizards if im going to get serious about off camera flash. But I will say the promaster triggers fired everytime. I believe the flash was at 1/4th power for most of these shots and zoomed at 50mm.

Number 4 is really cool. What is it about rail road tracks and why do they make such nice portrait backdrops?

I like the shots, but just seems like all the smiles are fake. :dunno:

Nice shots!


Does your friend know that you posted them on a message board, though?

It was hard capturing a natural smile, I would make her laugh as much as I could to get a natural smile in the pics but she would turn away when she laughed. Here was another shot with a more natural smile.

Nice shots!
