Location
This was taken in Apollo Bay on a day trip with Canberra model Sylph Sia and one of my mentors, Brett DorronTime
Taken early afternoon, this scene is sheltered from direct sunlightLighting
Natural light only. Sheltered from direct sunlight tho, it was actually quite dark. My iso had been raised slightly higher to get the correct exposureEquipment
I'm limited in my camera gear tho I believe you don't need a lot to take a good image. I shoot primarily with my Nikon D700 and a 50mm lensInspiration
I had been following Sylph Sia's (model) for a while so when I heard she was travelling to Melbourne, I jumped at the chance to shoot with herEditing
I usually do a lot of post processing, tho haven't done much with this particular shotIn my camera bag
My favourite piece of equipment is my 50mm lens. It's versatile and can be used for most shoots. My preference is to shoot in studio tho so for me, studio lighting is a mustFeedback
Work with experienced models if you can! They need less direction and can usually visualise what you are trying to achieve
