Behind The Lens
Location
Leto and I took this Pictures on the stairs in front of my house. The stairs are almost the whole day in the shade.Time
It was early afternoon on a cloudy day.Lighting
because of the stairs are in the shade any way and the clouds the light was very soft. furthermore, tall bushes are growing to the left and right of the stairs and hide the stairs from direct sunlight. this leads to a relatively dark background and a bright front.Equipment
I used my EOS 5DsR, a Sigma 50/1.4 Art lens and a reflector lying between me and Leto on the groundInspiration
I wanted to make a quiet portrait with a dark background. For the clothing we chose a rebellious Outfit. Leather jacket and pants with shiny shoes.Editing
I added contrast, pushed micro contrast, made the vignette more visible and converted the image to black and whiteIn my camera bag
In my bag there is usually my camera, 2 zooms (16-35/4 IS & 70-200/2.8 II IS) and the following fixed lenses: 24/1.4, 35/1.4, 50/1.4, 85/1.2. My bag is pretty big and heavyFeedback
Don't forget the unspectacular places. Some of them make good locations for portraits.
