Location
The photo was made on a pedestrian bridge in the small city Olten, Switzerland.Time
The photo was made at the 17th of July in 2018 at about 11:45.Lighting
The only source of light was the natural light. It was cloudy so we had a huge softbox abouve us. Anyway we had enough light to take a few great pics :-)Equipment
For this photo I used my Nikon D810 in combination with my 85mm Sigma Art Portrait Lens. No other gear (such as reflectors, flashes etc.) were used.Inspiration
I had that idea to make some pictures on this small bridge. So we tried a few poses with the long black dress of the model :-)Editing
After selecting the best photos I corrected, if necessary, the light in the picture a little bit. Afterwards the pic has been cropped (if nesessary). Then, for this photos, I choosed this warm color look to gave the Photo that special look and last but not least, I made a classic beauty retouching. Finished.In my camera bag
For my portrait shootings I usually use my full format DSLR with a set of (relatively) fast primes: A 45mm, a 85mm or 90mm macro, and a 135mm, the magnificent Sigma 24-35mm f2.0 Art Zoom for the slightly wider angles and sometimes a 70-200mm (if I need it for longer distances).Feedback
With a cool idea and a relaxed model in a good mood you have nearly everything you need. Then choose your shooting location and watch the light during the shoot. A camera with manual control (but don't forget: the best camera is the one you have with you) and then go for it. And yes, don't forget to do some the post-processing ;-)
