I like this photo because the highkey-style makes the girl so vulnerable! My pics are more lowkey - but maybe you enjoy my style?!

Location
I always pay attention to the location of your photo session, because the right place can help you to show the character of the models and the general idea. For this photo I used the white cloth for background and my own apartment as photo studio.Time
I like this photo, because I see in the picture the harmony of colors. I usually take natural lighting photos early in the mornings, because people aren't tired and their eyes are always bright after one or two cups of coffee. And in the mornings my mind is more creative than in other time of twenty-four hours. At the same time morning lighting is very soft and beautifulLighting
Usually I choose dull days to create great portraits. When there are many clouds in the sky you can take photos from morning to evening, because the lighting is soft and diffused.Equipment
It’s very important to choose the appropriate lens for the portrait photo shoot. All SLR cameras have interchangeable lenses. I use Nikon d700 camera. High-speed fixing lenses are ‘must have’ for me. My most popular lens for portraiture is 50 mm, It’s Nikon AF-S 50mm f/1.8G Nikkor. This lens isn’t expensive but very useful and convenient.Inspiration
I met this girl in a subway and decided to invite her as a photo model. Her name was Alina and she was a natural albino with absolutely white hair, eyebrows, eyelashes and light blue eyes. Alina had some problems with eyesight and concentration of sight was rather difficult for her. But she is very nice person who try to smile always and be kind with other people.Editing
Alina’s face didn’t have any make-up, her hair didn’t have any hair styling, that is why all portraits have showed natural beauty of such special person like albino. I used Adobe Photoshop to emphasize her beauty and purity.In my camera bag
There's Nikon d700 and Nikkor 50mm in my bag. Sometimes I use 16mm, 35mm or 85mm lenses and flash.Feedback
The photographer needs to have skills of being friendly with people, to inspire them and to make the photo shoot interesting for models. If both of them have a good understanding during the photo shoot it will help to create many interesting photos. You should tell the model about the meaning of the photo session and the possible result. You can do it in conversation or show the drafts to the model. You can even say the row of associations. Perhaps, you can recollect a suitable hero from a famous movie or book. One of the most important abilities of the photographer is the ability of good explanation. Of course, you have to think enough about the plot of the photo shoot before you’ll be ready to explain it.
