    Deep set eyes

    Hi everyone,

    Im wondering if anyone has any tips when shooting people with deep set eyes. I've done a couple of outdoor shoots with kids and they have really deep set eyes while just look really dark in the photo's even though everywhere else in the photo's look good.

    Also is there any tips how to fix this is post processing?
    Cheers

    Avoid shooting with a 12 gauge shotgun. Use a Canon instead.

    Canon 5D, Canon 7D, 50mm 1.4, 18-55mm, Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 VC, Sigma 70-200mm f2.8, 580EX Speedlight. Facebook

    Try using Flash fill.
    Probably best to use an external flash (even attached to the camera) set on TTL, if you can, and bounsed off a white card to soften the light.
    Another alternative for static subjects might be to use a reflector.
    Keep shooting and good luck.
