Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo just outside of our shop in downtown Middleboro, MA.

Time

I just picked up our friend and newest employee after he had been on the train for two days. I believe it was early afternoon or even late morning.

Lighting

I was such a noob with lighting and even photography. I knew though the basics of vape tricks though and the lights involved. I asked my friend to head into the alley way and try vaping. As soon as he blew out I knew this was the spot!

Equipment

This was shot with my first camera. A Canon EOS Rebel T4i and I believe a 50mm stock lens. I am really impressed with the quality!

Inspiration

The vape industry inspires me constantly. The beauty of the vape as it hits the air, the mystery around it. The subject I used is not a model and actually has never been in front of the camera before. His awkwardness made the photo in my opinion.

Editing

I shot in raw with a little correction.

In my camera bag

I now have my Canon 5D Mark IV, GoPro Hero 5, DJI Inspire 2 X5S Gimbal, Osmo Pro X5 as far as cameras go. My lenses are all L series with my 70-200mm 2.8L IS as my go to, but the Canon 8-15mm 4L Fisheye is my favorite!

Feedback

I have no training in photography. In fact when it comes to the technical side I am very new. I guess my advice is to step aside from what everyone tells you is beautiful or correct & start getting inspired. Try things out, watch videos online. They help so much!
