In the era of Lights by... Hair by... Wardrobe By.... Make-Up by...and studio crews how wonderfully refreshing to see a beautiful girl all natural in natural light. The light in those eyes is all you needed Rachel. Lids off to you for realizing that. Well done!

Location
At a café just after having lunch in Yarra Junction, Victoria, AustraliaTime
Early afternoonLighting
It was a bright hot day, but we were sitting in the shade under a verandaEquipment
Nikon D90 and just my kit lens 18-55mmInspiration
My daughter was very relaxed and just posed like this naturally, so I grabbed my camera out!Editing
Skin smoothing and lightening and sharpening of the eyes - I also added a little gloss to the lips as they were a bit dry.In my camera bag
As we were just on a day out - I only had my camera and kit lens. I would normally have a reflector too.Feedback
Sometimes the best photos are those unplanned - always keep an eye open for an opportunity! In this case a relaxed model and ideal lighting.
