Next doors little girl was going out to a doo this afternoon. She had her hair done and was borrowing make up off of the girl over the road all excited she were. Me ! Well I was watering my plants at the time 
Anyways I were chatting away to her Mum when for some reason I said if she wanted a few photos taking I could have a try but couldnt promise anything, blow me she was back round at ours 10 mins later :-(
Got real nervous then as i'm not used to photographing other peeps other than family.
Anyways I took these
Sorry for posting this many as I know it can be boring but I would like as much help as poss.
In the first 2 I had Mum hold a reflector to the side left and small softbox to right. (Speedlight in box)
In 3rd I had soft box above and reflector held below, looking now though I cant see the light in top of eye. Did I do wrong?
In 4 softbox reflector as in number 1and 2 Never shot full length so this was odd.
In 5 asked Mum to jump in as I hadnt a clue what else to do. She was not ready for this and not going to the doo but she is a great sport. Still had reflectoer below and light above.
In 6 Natural light outside when finished.
In 7 I used the reflector below and softbox above.I think I went about these 2 people shots wrongly and am assuming that this type of light is not used on certain people. Am I correct or way off the mark?
All feedback is most wellcomed.
