Patricia, I this you did a fantastic job with this one. It has such a light, delicate and sensitive feel about it. Very graceful. Congratulations!
David

Thank you , David. It is encouraging to hear that you find it light and delicate. The pic I used was of her on the railing of a boat with people all around her, a very crowded snapshot!

Oh Pat, this turned out beautifully. I love the little hand -- so soft, very well done!
Good luck with your photo session. (It helps to pre-set as many of your camera settings to where you'll want them ahead of time  ) Good Luck!

Thank you, Terri. Yes, I am going to use my daughter-in-law and new granddaughter this weekend, take bunches of pictures to decide a couple of good setups. I think the greatest challenge will be engaging the five year old, hoping that she responds to my grandmotherliness (is that a word??!) I don't have the greatest camera, but I am going to borrow my sister's and use both of them so that I can take a couple hundred shots!!! I've reread every thread on the forum about photo references which is such a great aid.

Nicely done.
When the client is there try to breathe slowly. Also move and talk more slowly than you normally would. Rushing around and talking fast gives away a lack of confidence.

Thank you, Sharon. I will do just that, I would not have thought about it. Interestingly, I have held that Cleveland, Ohio is a poor city for portraiture. When I spoke to the gentleman yesterday he said his wife can't understand why he would even want a portrait done! He had no idea what the procedure is (even though I attached a description of the process of creating a portrait) and actually sounded nervous talking to me. This actually boosts my confidence a bit. He may have an image of me wearing a beret and white smock with really puffy sleeves!!
And as far as his wife is concerned, I reassured him that she would understand his desire for a portrait of their precious daughter when she sees the finished product. And I told him, "this will be fun"! I sure hope so...

Do wear the beret and smock and add a Daliesque moustache. That'll convince him.
