Mother and Daughtet

Day 357 of 365

"Mother and Daughter"

 

Our subjects today are my sister and niece. They graciously donated about ten minutes for this session.I recently viewed a profile of a woman with a second painted face on her face. I wondered if that look could be replicated, but with two subjects. I lit the woman in the background with a strip bank, and it is just out of frame at camera-right. For the contrast in exposure, it was critical that her right cheek be lit, but that the light not encroach on my any part of my niece's. I had them as close together as possible, as I wished to have both in focus. My niece was standing on an apple box, and I asked her to squat a bit in order to line up with her mother. Were I to take a second stab at this portrait, I would have used a wider lens, possibly allowing for both to be in sharper focus. Regardless, I nearly achieved the vision that I had, and I am rather happy with the finished image. Happy Monday!!
