Marvin convinced me to spend the money and buy some new photography equipment, it started with a zoom lens. Yesterday I had an outdoor shoot of five year old twins, WOW how easy it was to catch these non-stop, will not pose for nothin' all-boy-boys!! Here are some of my favorites

One more. by the end of the shoot both boys were covered in mud and in trouble with dad

I can see a huge difference in your pics. The lens were worth the investment.

Laurel Alanna McBrine 10-12-2011 08:36 PM

I am loving that first reference shot for a painting!

I agree Claudemir and Laurel, I too am praying my clients go for number one and commission a painting inst

ead of a drawing, if not a painting I will probably paint it anyways for my own portfolio...

Wow, what an amazing improvement! Congragulations. I really like the last pose.

Mike Dodson 10-13-2011 02:32 PM

I actually I meant pose #4, didn't initially see the ones after that one.

Patricia Joyce 10-13-2011 06:22 PM

Thanks, Mike. BTW really like your paintint currently on your easel of the little girl

I vote for numbers 4 & 5. Personally, I think you should do two separate portraits. That way in the future they can each have their own. I like the cropping in # 5 the way it is. I would crop #4 so the heads in both are the same size. I would do this even if they only pay for one painting. This will get you tons of work. Do both even if they decide on drawings. Well done. Nothing like a good lens to make someone feel like an accomplished photographer.

Thanks Pat!
Did you get the 55mm-200mm? Does it have the VR?
