 I don't know if any of you noticed, but I was using 2 lights for the first 4 days. For the next 4 days, it will be one light. Then, I will go to 3. Dunno if I will be able to post much after that as school starts back up on the 15th.

This was lit with one umbrella light about 12 inches from my face (they are not really strong) and just to camera left.

PP was a crop because the shirt had some text on it that was distracting, a lot of healing brush as I had no makeup on and I am having a very serious breakout!!! :-/ I also fixed my front teeth as the edges are a bit chipped. :) A little curves to correct wb. For some reason it was WAYY off. I wish I could use photoshop on me for real :-/

I just got a haircut and took off about a foot at the longest part. I feel SO much better!!! :)

I love the realness of this self portrait. You look sooooooo much like my sister Tammy in this shot, it's weird. And I bet you may look like her twin had you not "fixed" your skin and teeth. Very nice!

One of the best SP's I've seen of you, JoJo. I like how you cloned in the missing teeth, removed the hairy mole from your nose and the wart from your chin and dodged your moustache out. ;-P

This has a very warm feel to it. The catchlights in the eyes are great!

Nice smile & eyes, lighting looks good too. I have a teenage 20yr old daughter and freinds I shoot sometimes. We could make a killing if we could clean them up in real life....LOL

the little white speck on the left under the hair, is that the text on the shirt? ;)
I like this photo a lot. The lighting is great, the skin tone is great, the eyes just pop and the crop is great!
