Behind The Lens

Location

Philadelphia, historic district, hotel conference room.

Time

Midday

Lighting

One speedlight in handheld Photoflex LiteDome, partially bounced from ceiling. LiteDisc reflector in front.

Equipment

Canon 5D Mk III, 24-70mm 2.8L.

Inspiration

Goal was to achieve a modern vintage portrait. Subject is an architect, turned professional model after his daughter encouraged him to grow a beard and posted on social media. Setting was the historic district of Philadelphia. His modern style with epic gray beard and mustache fit the classic decor of the reading room.

Editing

Workflow is Lightroom and Photoshop with retouching and vignetting.

In my camera bag

I carry an R5 or 5DIV for travel. My lenses change, but I plan ahead to minimize the load. Better and fewer glass for the road is ideal for me. I rarely take more than two lenses even when on assignment. Lighting and modifiers are a whole different matter requiring their own cases.

Feedback

Study the environment. Study the subject. Create a plan and then act spontaneously.
