1. Wear comfortable shoes when you'll be doing a shoot outdoors [or anywhere].
2. Allow yourself enough time when the sun is your only form of light. [The sun fell below the trees WAY faster than I had expected it to, so I had to make do with just a few photos.]
3. It's fun to shoot images you don't think will work; sometimes those images are the best of the shoot!
...That being said, here are my photos for the backlit/stranger assignment and the bouncing light assignment.
This is Kyle, Tad's roommate. I didn't know him before this day. He has a funny laugh.
This is Tad. He wore a fun hat.
...and one out-take that I LOVED...
