Ah...good idea about practicing the light on Mom first. Such an obvious idea that never crossed my mind.

Over and over I read this sentence on this forum to many members.
"If I were you I would re-shoot these."

Do you know how many moans and groans people give at the thought of doing this again? I realize that for the perfect portrait that they are expecting that this should not be an issue for them. But it is most of the time. Then I end up feeling incompetent for not being able to get it right the first time.

More than likely, they aren't groaning as much as I think they are, but it does make me paranoid to have to disturb someone again. How do you get over that, and what is the best way to approach these situations and make yourself come across as professional instead of some ditz that doesn't know what she is doing (the actual case).
