A quick portrait session

Earlier today my sister in law and I took a walk around town with the goal of getting some senior portraits done.  This was the first time I was using the new Fuji X-E1 for portrait work and I wasn’t sure what to expect.  Needless to say, it worked very well.  I set my ISO to Auto 400, clicked the shutter speed dial to 1/125 and let the aperture float to where it was needed.  The lighting conditions made it stick right around it’s maximum of f/4, so that was perfect.  On most of the shots, I used a speedlight with a small softbox attached and triggered by a pair of generic radio triggers.  The power was set low so that it gave the image just a slight bump in light.  Everything came together beautifully.  Here are just a few from the walk.
