Location
This photo was taken at Pipemaker Park, by the grasslands, which were dry and had tones of beige yellow.Time
It was taken on a afternoon, slightly cloudy with a light breeze in the air. We walked down the tracks and got ready for the shoot. The clouds covering the sun. It was an opportunity to get a mellow look for the mood.Lighting
I wanted to make the photo to have a soft and gentle atmosphere for it, and with the bright rays of sun blocked by the clouds, and the ambient lighting of afternoon sun, it was a perfect opportunity to capture the mood that I envisioned.Equipment
This image was shot with the Nikon d810, with a Nikkor 70-200mm lens. No other equipment was used.Inspiration
It was a project of mine that I've decided to take on a whim, I was inspired by the red colour of the model's hair and the outdoor, Bohemian style.Editing
Yes, I use lightroom and photoshop. Lightroom for colour adjusting and exposure, and photoshop for skin re-touching and colour grading.In my camera bag
The equipment I normally have in my bag is my Nikon d810, the Nikkor 70-200mm; 24-70mm; 105mm macro lens and 85mm with polarised filter and a Nd8 filter.Feedback
Try to shoot back light at mid-day or wait for the clouds to cover if you're lucky. My main advice to capturing something similar is the unchanging expression of the model, even when wind or slight breeze flows, creating a tense yet mellow feel to the photo.
