Attempt at studio again

There's some sharp shadows on the first which you could avoid by moving the sitter away from the backdrop, or reduce by using a light source on the rhs.

I like #4 shame the eyes aren't in focus. A greater depth of field maybe?
 
Thank you, the last one my lens was on full zoom and he was about 4 inches away, it was a complete accident but i liked it and would agree the eyes could do with being a sharper but am yet to master the camera lens and settings :LOL: Only got my first DSLR yesterday :)

And thanks for the tip on the first one, I did wonder why it was like that when the others aren't (y)
 
As rich said, for the first one move him away from the background. i like you like the fourth one, and as said shame his eyes are not sharper. Great attempt. What lighting were you using for these?

Nothing a matter with that, just use one on either side.

Make sure you've got no natural light though, as you'll struggle to get the colour balance right otherwise.
 
Welcome to tp :wave:

Well done on these shots for being new to photography.(y) And for what you have used.

Hope you dont mind but I had a very quick play with one just to show that there is good potenial there.

ideally you need more light on the b/g and get your subjects away from the b/g to lose the shadows

hope you dont mind I will delete straight away if you do.;)

Just goes to show you do not need loads of expensive equipment to get good shots, a bit more practice and I can not wait to see what you produce.(y)
 
I think they're a great start - good your model didn't crawl away today :D

and I'll remember to use two bedside lamps when I can find myself some studio space (very small house :LOL:)
