Studio Shooting Snag I took some senior pictures in my home studio yesterday and used a west window around 6:30 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. The light was still bright, and I also used a spotlight with a 65watt bulb covered with ripstop nylon and with a black backdrop on the wall. My model was at least 4 ft. away from the backdrop. I used a reflector to put some light on the model's face, but when I got the pictures back today, some were too BRIGHT and some were too DARK, I didn't use the flash on my camera. Can anyone tell me what I might have done wrong? Thank you.

What might have gone wrong is the auto exposure being thrown off by the clothes the people were wearing. Or if you were shooting on manual, the sun went behind the clouds and you kept using the same camera settings.

hello I like your picture and your kids if you were not on manual your meter may have grabbed the black background for you overexposed or you may have just changed a setting on you camera by mistake moved a dial with your thumb, brushed the lens moving on and off the tripod, or it could have just been the film, was it old. looking at the date you probably already found out what happen. well have fun scott
