At the last weekend away with my wife's (she's in the 2nd photo) family I decided to shoot all of their portraits on film. I went into it far too ambitious and misjudged their willingness to pose for more than 30 seconds and the time I had to spend setting up every shot separately. In the end I decided to abandon my original plans of shooting both environmental portraits and headshots and just find a place with decent natural light througout the afternoon and evening under a few trees and just shoot all (12!) of them the same way. Some of them were up to it, and that shines through immediately.
After a shoot like that browsing a thread like this is a humbling experience. I'm not that comfortable posing people and much prefer a nice, quiet forest scene.
Maybe I'll try my hand at portraits one day, but I would prefer them asking me to take their portrait, than me having to force them.
All shot on 4x5 fomapan 100 with a Xenar 210 @ f4.5
Like them all.
These must be the patient ones!
Yes, they were, though none of them were in front of the camera for more than a minute or two.
