Default First modelling assignment

I was asked by a friend to photograph her daughter who is entering quite
a prestigious pageant (Miss Teen SA) next week. Nervous as hell photo-
graphing a cute 15 year-old with her Mom breathing down my neck at every
shot! Luckily Simone knew exactly how to pose herself and I think she
has a very bright future in modelling.

Anyway, I think I did okay. Here are some of the images from the shoot:

All shot in RAW using the D70 with the 18-70mm DX lens set to f/8, an
SB-800 on camera at ISO 500. No sharpening, some lifting of levels as I
was shooting at -1/3.

Very nice. I would be reluctant if it were me putting pictures of my
daughter on the internet. There have been plenty of cases of them ending up
in the wrong hands.

It could cause real embarresment for your daughter.


There internet is a big place full of mostly good people...but there's a lot
of dirty f*ckers too. Just be careful.

Your site really doesn't seem to work well in Opera or Mozilla .... unless
it's just a strange design.

Have you checked what they look like in B&W?
I'm asking because it seems to be working well for the thumbnails.

She's about to get up on stage and parade her beauty to the public.
She'd better be ready to have her picture on the 'net.

It does say, "For best results view with Internet Explorer 6.0+"

Actually, that should be, "For ANY results..." - clicking a thumbnail
causes Mozilla to just open another copy of the same page.

Which is odd, because it looks like it was built in DreamWeaver, which
doesn't usually produce such non-compatible code... I'd expect that from
something like FrontPage...
