Reference for identical twin 3 yr old boys




Since I live with my two sons, you'd think I could easily get some good reference shots for portraits. Bribes for candy get me at least a couple of minutes. Here's my latest attempts, shot in my kitchen. Light is also a challenge here in overcast Seattle.

I will be doing a head and shoulders portrait of each one separately, but they will be hung side by side. That brings up issues of consistency between the two. Background and clothing will be abstracted to that is not an issue for me.

The shot of Mikey (blue shirt), is a little overexposed but I think I can compensate (?) The shot of Tommy (red shirt) is exposed better, but I don't like the expression or the angle of his shoulder as well. I really love the shot of him and his puppet, but all those teeth, not sure if I could pull it off.

Any constructive criticism is welcome. I have more candy if need be.
