Description my daughter Abigale (dressed in a princess gown). photo taken 2-5-09 (trying out my photo equipment: stand, green screen backdrop, lights). the background was green screen and a digital backdrop was added.

still trying to perfect the removal of the green screen and definitely need to work on the lighting.

blessed? yes... but when she's a teen i know her beauty will be my curse (all the boys calling).

the photo is ok... i'm still trying to find the best way to remove the background. i think i may have found a software that will do the job (to my liking) and have pleasant results.

I like this pose and the background is a perfect fit for it. This could easily be a book cover or something cool!

thanks. still working on removing the background, poses and lighting. the pic does look nice on screen but it did not look well when i printed it out at a local store- can see all the imperfections. yuck!

it would make a cool book cover

Don't you hate that!?! You think your shot is good and then you print it out and it doesn't look like what you saw on the screen!!!
Cutting things out isn't as easy as they make it seem IMO.

I could just see that shot on the cover of a book!

Nice one!! What programme is it that you have for the backdrop?

i found a program/disc from EZbackgrounds.com called "The Complete Digital Backgrounds Package".

it's nice to have quality backgrounds to insert but the difficult part is getting rid of the original background. part of the issue is getting the background and subject lit properly. hopefully, my extra set of lights will arrive soon so i will have lights for the background and a separate set of lights for the subject.

Nicely done, I think I like the background and yes, the lighting is off just a little, but it's still a nice portrait. You're on your way

thanks. it was my first time using the lights. have ordered a separate set of lights so i will be able to light the background and subject separately.
