These are paw some!! beautiful doggies..... Can anyone recommend cannon lenses they find work well with their furfriends?

I was watching YouTube tutorials to play around and expand photoshop experience. I came across tutorials on adding 'natrual sunlight' to portraits and gave it ago and aimed for a similar effect.

Completely understandable what your saying, in this image the sun had gone behind a cloud giving a dull background, I am just playing around in photoshop to expand my skills and watching YouTube tutorials. I came across ones adding a 'natrual sunlight' effect to portraits but it's just not...

Hi All I'm and expanding photoshop skills, 1. Opinions on my first attempt of adding a natrual backlight? 2. I have selected the people and inverted to add the gradient to the back ground, my problem is if you zoom on the girls hair it's not a very clean edge around it, any advice on a way...

Thank you How do I know if my auto focus is back focusing? I had partial metering on and al-servo. Would it be better to be on spot metering?

Thank you for all your advice, I am drawn to the 50mm 1.8 lens mostly. Phil I'm generally looking at traditional and family/children portraits at the moment and then advancing on to newborn photography in the future (maby a year or too after training/courses ect.

I have a cannon 100D looking at getting a lens with a wider appature as f4 is my current widest. My question is do I go for a 50mm 1.4 , 50mm 1.8 or 40mm 2.8? My main aim is to get the soft background in portrait shoots more often than I am doing. My nude is only a few hundred dollars as I'm...

T Thank you! I'll need a model release form though won't I? Especially if I'm wanting them On my social media/ website ect?

Hi All Out of the blue I have been asked to do a family shoot on the beach. Wanting advice on pricing/release forms and other legalities, I usually do landscapes and have only done family shoots for actual family. Thanks Jess

I love this!! This is what I aimed to achieve, I processed in Lightroom. May I ask how you got to this?

Thanks Kodiak It was shot in Raw, how would I go about taming the higher key vegetation do you mean reducing the amount in the image thus balancing vegetation and waterfall? I'll give it ago but not 100% sure what you mean.
