Shooting Portraits like a Pro On a Budget
I like the background stuff. We used a red background for last year’s Christmas cards.
Now I’ve gotta try the black background. Annie Leibovitz did a Rolling Stone cover where she shot the The Who from above with a black floor and the members of the band in black turtlenecks with their head tilted back, so that only their heads showed. Scott Kelby explains a similar technique in the first volume of The Digital Photography Book. He uses black turtleneck t-shirts from Target. Easy squeezy.

Melissa used #10 (a series of shots of a child) for Katie’s beach pictures. I liked it so much I used it for these pictures of Natalie in her walker. This works great for kids because they’re always in motion and the series captures that energy.
