This is definitely a record. I have never posted twice in a row before!
Today I attempted to set the camera up alone and the result was ok, but not as good as when I had my coach. I did actually take notes in a notebook yesterday, though.
To answer a few of yesterday's questions:
- I am using a Canon EOS Rebel SL1 with an 85mm lens
- I set the shutter speed and the aperture, but it is on auto focus
- I used a wired remote, programmed with 10 second delay to hit my mark, and 6 shots in a row with 3 seconds between. You press "go", hustle to the spot, and it makes a beep just before it takes each shot.
- I am standing about 25 feet from the camera
- The camera is on a tripod
- The time of day is 3:30 p.m. today and I am actually shooting into the setting sun. I am going to try this same spot in the morning.
Today I drove to Harrisburg, PA for a meeting, about 95 miles each way. This is after the drive because I could not get the camera working at 7:45 a.m. and was in a hurry. Hence, the wrinkles on the pink jacket.
I wore the pink jacket, but I had tried on the white last night and was really torn between the 2, so showed them both. I was disappointed when I first got the Zara jacket - I couldn't figure out how to style it at all. It is also not great quality. There is a hole in the lining of one pocket and many threads were hanging. But, when I paired it with the black dress, I think it worked well. I really like the silhouette.
The clutch, while so cute, is so not functional! I could not even fit my license and AAA card, 1 credit card, 1 lipstick, phone and glasses without struggling to clasp.
Dress: Loft (from Christmas Eve)
Pink jacket: Zara
White jacket: H&M
Coat - Chicos

Thanks for looking and all the nice feedback yesterday. I have so many clothes in my closet you've never seen...
PS Deb - I challenge you to go outside! How about a spring shoot in Williamsburg together?
