The camera is everything,Thats your main source to start with. A high end camera save you many hrs of photoshop work. White Balance is another problem. WWW.expodisc.com Lighting use 5000K bulbs a brite room with them bulbs makes things come out super even on a poor camera. Not all but most depends on how cheap your camera is. Bright Pictures flash is to high,dark-flash to low=again lighting. Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 will solve alot of screw ups. If shes cute send them to me i'll repair them.

I agree that the camera is important (though the photographer and subject are more-so), but I don't agree with the chosen colour temperature. Yes, it's much easier to accomodate for the white shift when you know what temperature to set, but wouldn't 6500K make more sense? I mean, sunlight is 6500K (or close enough to it), and sunlight gives fantastic results every time. Using studio lights would also negate most of the negatives of sunlight, such as strong shadow casts, low ambient temperatures, public decency laws, etc.
Just seems like a strange choice to me... as well as a shameless plug.

If you notice peoples pictures on here, alot are yellow thats due to lighting and your 6500K.gives the yellow. 5000k gives you a neautral find a chart it will clearly show the difference in color. I also had a web site link called http://www.expodisc.comThe new filter is designed for professional photographers, videographers, and serious amateurs. The new filter produces custom color at the point of capture. Photographers no longer have to shoot through extra glass, carry inconsistent and cumbersome cards, or spend hours on the computer in post-production color correction. Users just need to read and set white balance with the ExpoDisc Digital Warm Balance filter in place before shooting to produce portraits and landscapes with warmer, more pleasing colors. The Digital Warm Balance Filter is a calibrated, colored diffusion filter with a bias that forces the digital camera to add precise quantities of red and green color to a neutral balance. The filter is excellent for warming (or balancing) skin tones in indoor or outdoor portraits and scenery. It decreases color temperature; adds healthy skin tone to images shot in open shade or overcast conditions; slightly reduces the bluish cast on overcast days or at high noon; reduces excess blue from flash indoors or in daylight flash-fill; as well as warms sea, sky and high altitude shots. And yes i'll also agree the photographer ect has alot to do with it. But cheap digital cameras and people useing automatic settings are causeing there own picture quality problems theres alot of classes that dont cost much to learn some of that, like RITZ camera shops offer digital classes cheap. I'm only doing this to help some people, as ive read a post on pictures not looking right ect. Heres another link to a little bit more http://photography.about.com/od/photoacces...fr/expodisc.htm

Thanks and drive through you doush! Hell the fuck yeah Puppet! The reason this site is great is that its an 'amateur' site! Thhe girls here arent professional models, using the greatest photographic equipment known to man, covered in make up and body butter, not spending thousands of dolars for a few photos! They are the girls from the local store, or the girls next door, using their regular digitcal cameras, web cams, phone camera's etc... and thats why the fuck we love it! Beat it Camera dude
