Beginner Shooting night portraits w/ Canon EOS Rebel T6

[fagundes.photography209]

hello, I'm fairly new here! I was wondering what would you guys recommend for night or low light portraits when it comes to settings. I did photos for a client of mine a few weeks ago at night and i wasn't proud of the photos at all... My Focus wasn't working right and i was struggling with me aperture. Any Tips?

Hi and welcome to TP

Your question is too lacking any in meaningful detail and as such far too vague so it might be a good start to tell us the following:-
Which lenses you have and which of those lenses you have been trying with?
The circumstances of the low light & night portraits?
What flashgun(s) do you have and any flash modifiers? And were you using an OCF setup?

PS maybe even tell us a bit more about your photographic experience???

PPS I forgot to mention......where someone is unhappy with the results of their efforts to "get that image...." when camera settings are a (significant?) influencing factor. It is always a good idea to post some of your pictures with their EXIF data, to aid any TPers in their offering of helpful feedback & critique.

Its like asking how long is a piece of sting Jacob- as per my friend above's post @Box Brownie - an image containing all the EXIF and the kit you used would be extremely helpful in helping you to find a solution!

You said "client" are you being paid to produce night portraits,? if so, surely you will know a lot more about basic principles, than the majority of people on an internet photography site I'm confused as to why then, you posted in the Beginner section?

welcome to the forum by the way
