trine smiling

I remember having a blast doing these portraits.
Making a person laugh/smile like this with a slow working LF fiesd camera seemed difficult.

When I was ready to take the picture, I stood next to the front of the camera (no shutter), and told Trine to (maybe) react to a silly joke I was about to tell - but reacting to the camera - not me....

That she just thought was so surreal and funny so she started to laugh even before I made my bad joke...

This came out.

Mosr of my models have tried to pose in the Painting with light technique - so I have "trained" them to pose quite still, without seeming stiff.

And I use flash as light mostly. So the wobbeling is out - just the focus presents the challenge...
