Love the camoflage pants and the tattoos. The subject blends into the background. I can see a lot of thought went into the composition!

The composition is amazing! The wall, the ink, and the camo pants? Wonderful. Glad you didn't go colour, B&W was the perfect choice.

Behind The Lens

Location

This shoot was at my friends barber shop a bit of creative fun and having great friends to help

Time

This is in late afternoon flash box present

Lighting

I wanted image to look grundgy and hard looking black and white was always my thought from start with one light setup give

Equipment

Was still shooting with canon 600d at the time of this shot with a 50mm f1.8 and pixapro 250 flash with soft box

Inspiration

I was looking at the tattoos in the mirror and a bit of fun really inspired me to ask for him to pose up for the shot

Editing

Just conversion to back and white and adjusted clarity a little to get the graining grundgy feel I was after

In my camera bag

In my bag I carry 50mm 35mm and 24-70mm various lens depending on situation room and feel of type portrait I’m looking to shoot

Feedback

Play around a little and get friends who are willing to join in involved use the subject as your inspiration
