Window light, 50mm 1.8 lens, 1/160sec, F2.8, manual mode & a tad bit of girly attitude:)

I loved how she just came out of her room & plopped right on the couch with 'TUDE'..hahahaha!

Converted b&w using calculations, burn tool to darken the wall & a bit of sharpen. The comp is SOOC. #499995

I am loven that white thick frame, I think it compliments all the highlights in the portrait SUPER!! The off centered look to this, is great. I love her toes touching one another, her off to the side look and prissy fru fru from the tutu giving it such a little girly look to this...Expression well captured!!! SO TYPICAL!! :o)

She just looks so little in the frame... Love , Love Love it!! This is a great example of not cropping in too much! I have to fight myself in always wanting to crop in too close... This is perfect! #3143921
