Here is a portrait photograph of my niece. She generally is so "trained" to pose for pictures by saying "cheese" while doing her best fake smile! So the trouble I ran into with taking a portrait shot was trying to take one with a natural expression and not the fake "cheese". I had to take several shots to get this one natural look. And by several I mean many! I took many photos of smiles and goofy expressions until finally I caught this one. I think is her expression for "can you stop taking pictures of me now"! She was a really good sport about it. The other problem I had was that there was a lot of natural light. You can see that the right side of her face is getting a lot of light. I like the way the light is hitting her face but I think some may think it is too much light. Ethier way I like the overall effect of the close-up, her expression, and the light.
