Hi Andy
If you're using a digital camera thats got differant settings try experimenting. Ive found using a mini tripod and using the delayed shutter setting works in low light with out using the flash. Ive a samsung s830 compact and my wife has a canon digital slr that uses interchangable lenses. (Weve a wide angle which is grat for close ups and wide shots the standard 55mm lense, a telephoto which is great for distance weve also got a hood, and some filters but dont have any lamps) For the best results if you can take the model out side this really makes a differance, natural light and shadows add a real feeling of realism.
Regards
Steve

PS I use adobe photoshop 5 for resizing images, open the photo you want to resize, Using the image drop down list click image size. type in 700 on the pixles box, make sure the constrain proportions box is ticked then hit enter. If you want to save the original at this size just ctrl s to save or use the file drop down box and use save as.
