Cosplay is a new Genre for me. I have some friends that shoot exclusively cosplay stuff and are heavily involved in the con scene. This photo was my first shoot, I treated it like a regular shoot without a costume. The shoot used natural lighting and I did a few makeup/bodypaint touch ups in post. Is there anything I can do to improve or keep any eye out for in the future? https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/43085276 Nov 12 17 04:27 pm Link WesOrtiz wrote: Think fashion editorial here...

Please try and keep the talent as the best illuminated aspect of your narrative... One strategically placed shoot through umbrella or parabolic could/would have taken this fashion rendering entire to the next level... Even though your 50-100mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art 016 lens shot wide open allowed beautiful subject isolation the talent is still wanting for more light... Dark wardrobe and accessories swallow the light like a sponge... A speedlite off camera would be ideal here...
