Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken outside of my shower in front of the giant wall mirror.

Time

This was taken one bright morning.

Lighting

I wanted to make sure there wasn't any glare from too much sunlight.

Equipment

This I captured with my smartphone. No flash, Samsung Note 10+.

Inspiration

I really enjoyed my new pink bone and wanted a fun way to show how much how excited I was with it. By wearing only a bra and thong in the reflection seems playful and light hearted. It gives the photo more then one focus point since the viewer isn't just drawn to the cheeks of my face.

Editing

Not much was needed. I used the built in light correction.

In my camera bag

Since this wasn't using my slr, the only accessory I use is a mobile powerbank.

Feedback

Make sure to pick a great outfit when trying to capture reflections. Make sure it helps convey a feeling and is doesn't make too many assumptions. As, you can see, by sharing an expression and two things unexpected in the image it really allows for a more interesting and comprehensive photo.
