I took these photos back in high school for the teen section of the Ogden newspaper, The Standard Examiner. They were a photo illustration for a story debating who makes the best donuts. Instead of setting up a bunch of studio lights, I just set the backdrop up outside under an awning to control the direction of the natural light. The clipping went fine. I still struggle clipping hair. Usually I clip it out and then go back in with a stylus and brush in a few stray hairs to try to remove the "helmet hair" look, which is what I did here. I think I could have done a bit better though . . .
