Hi! I've been asked to take some publicity photos for our amateur school production, and they've sent me this photo as an idea of what they want: I don't have a studio or anything since I'm an amateur myself, but I wondering how you'd go about shooting something like this? I know it's a...

Really? It looks like almost identical lens flare is present in all of these photos: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cpczULJHapI/T_scZfVRGII/AAAAAAAAAxk/rwke4xxxjtg/s1600/_DSC0912.jpg http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/69140_10151246255737559_1823488414_n.jpg...

I know that lens flare is generally thought to be a big no-no, but sometimes it can create some quite beautiful effects. I want to know how to get flare like this: http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/224580_10151246257277559_31483995_n.jpg I'm not sure if it this is...

I'm trying to get an effect like these photos: Porcelain doll-like almost, but the other colours are still quite vivid. Any ideas? http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellaruth/6983618921/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellaruth/6829752582/in/photostream...

Almost all of her photos have that kind of effect though, and as we live in the same town I can say with some certainty that we don't get mist that often :) We're not really close enough for me to ask her myself, thought if anyone here knew what general tweaks would get an effect like this it'd...

I was wondering how to achieve an effect similar to that of this photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellaruth/6008622507/in/photostream It's so gorgeous! I've been playing with curves, blur, contrast etc and I can't seem to get it the way I want it. Any ideas?
