On April 6th FBWE Villagers were treated to a lecture by village volunteer, Nancy Breslin, a DC-based artist and instructor. Nancy provided several tips on how to work creatively and avoid mistakes in portrait photography. Attendees learned that focusing on the eyes of a subject creates the best result, that attention to backlighting can enhance a portrait, and that balancing the model in a setting helps to take the most flattering and best quality photo/portrait.
