Location

The photo was taken as I lay in bed with my baby being cradled in my lap.

Time

This was taken in the morning when the sun was low, and we were still resting in bed

Lighting

I was facing the window which gave a great bright single light source. I underexposed the shot as much as I could (about 4 stops down) to take advantage of the strong light source and darken the majority of the frame

Equipment

This picture was taken he d held using my old iPhone because it was all I had to hand to take the shot without moving.

Inspiration

This was one of those “I can see the shot so I’m going to take it” moments

Editing

I used my phones built in editing tools to make the picture monochrome, and increased the black point slightly to darken the background a little more

In my camera bag

I have a large chest full of gear with 3 pre-packed kit bags containing various cameras, lenses and other bits to suit whatever pictures I am going out to take, so I can quickly grab a bag (or 2) and go. Ultra important to be able to go quickly if running out for a last minute photoshoot or news call

Feedback

Look for strong light sources, and don’t be afraid to underexpose your shots
