Double check you shutter speed. Most cameras have a shutter sync speed between 125 th and 250.

Are those reflective or diffusion umbrellas?
i had to ask because I just spent two days trying to figure out why I could not vary the aperture setting in any shooting mode on my D700.
Idiot! Turn off 'aperture lock' at CS f8!

Good to see you back!
What was your shutter speed? Everyone's keen to know.
This is kind of fun but we want to help you.
And I'm interested to see how final sucessful shot looks.

I never read instructions either, good job new you would figure it out. Its usually something simple once you dissect the situation and settings. Look forward to seeing your photos.

I think a lot of us here are visual people and would prefer to be shown. I hate reading manuals too.

ok so i took some shots with that light set up that we have been discussing here, of my daughters friend before the "client" showed up. they came out great. Problem is when I uploaded them to the camera I hit delete on a few of the pics that were before hers and before my eyes they started deleting so fast I had to shut off my computer for fear that the "clients" pictures would delete as well. As it turned out a few did but I was using some of the last pictures from the shoot. Ends up I did not use the light set up we have been discussing for the client I absolutely not get a good look. Should i post the shot here or on a new topic? New topic I think I know what I did wrong, since I spent the entire day yesterday with lighting tutorials and referring to other posts here. Long post ...sorry
