Here's a portrait of my dad that I made yesterday. He works in IT at the college in my town, and is speaking at a conference this fall and needed a headshot.

Some shots I did for the daughter of some folks whose house I sometimes use for shoots. She told me she fences, so I suggested doing something with that.
Both shots taken with the X100T and generic manual speedlights. The colour one is a 60x60cm softbox and a reflector for fill. The b&w one a MagMod MagSphere and a MagGrid for harsh, directional light.

Some more shots from the beginning. Re-edited a while later since I beefed up my Photoshop skills earlier this year...
First shot in the series was what killed my 56 APD. Autofocus motor creeked and yelled throughout the session, and this shot was the final one before I decided something was seriously wrong... You can see the focus was missed, as turned out later were 98% of all shots from this session. I sent in the lens to Fuji and got it back a few weeks later. They changed out the autofocus motor, but problems were even worse after that. Sent it back a second time. They changed the whole optical assembly, and now it seems to have been fixed.

Hi all,
I got into the Fuji system after using a Micro-Four Thirds system for a while. For portraits, the sharpness, skin tone rendering and level of detail is incredible, certainly when adding flash...
Some of my more recent work, if admins approve, I'll keep this post updated as I process new shoots. Started doing portraiture in November only, so there will be some progression hopefully over time
Gear used up to today, together with generic speedlights and modifiers.
X100T
X-T1
56 1.2 APD
50-140 2.8
16 1.4
First post is my earliest work with the Fuji system. Three shoots I did in December.

Putting the new Fuji XF 16 1.4 to use. Love this lens, just what I needed for when the X100T doesn't give me the wide angle I need.
Both shot with the X-T1, 16 1.4, manual speedlights via 60x60 softbox.
