No expensive studio lighting and no money to pay models to pose under artificial light. I'll sit this challenge out. It's okay... not every challenge can be inclusive of all members.
I will, however, vote.
I'm the same but I ended up putting something in for the learning expirence.
Pulled the furniture out of the way, put up the lights and background, got the camera out, metered the lighting. Everything ready. Power up the lights and camera, go to the side pocket of the camera bag for the hot shoe / synch cord adapter, only to find that it is missing. 30 minutes of searching, I'm out of time - model's patience is shot - have to resort to my old P&S, which ironically does have a synch cord connector built in.
Not near the flexibility of the DSLR, but it got the job done (I hope).

Could be a week of regrets though.
Way shift and bend under pressure, Sam! Can't wait to see how it came out!
Don't give me too much credit really! My best portraits didn't really score well here, and I think this one will be the same. I finally got it down to 4 shots, 3 were text book portraits - one was a portrait with style...... I went with the flair! :)
Just submitted, with minutes to spare...will I finally break 6 this time? If so, I have promised to pay the model the handsome fee, of $5. She was delighted at the prospect!
