Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in my home town Davao City, Philippines.

Time

Taken around 4 pm

Lighting

Shot in natural light. under the shade.

Equipment

My first dslr Canon 450D with 50mm f1.8

Inspiration

This girl worked in my family for quite long time .We don't consider her as house maid but we consider her as a member of the family.When i started photography, i was facinated with tribes (even until now). She is a B'laan, a local tribe in my country. As photographer I want her to experience fun shot as a birthday gift. We dressed her, put some make up and she was very happy that day. This photo was taken after the fun shot. i let her stand and asked her to place her hands in her cheek then i took the photo. it was my favorite shot that day. When she finished her studies, we encourage her to look for a better job. Now she was working as cashier in a supermarket in our town

Editing

When i started in photography i honestly don't know about RAW so i shot this in JPEG (bad move) :D I converted it in black and white, add some sharpness, brightness and contrast. No filter and it's NOT HDR.

In my camera bag

Currently im using Fujifilm XE1 with 18mm f2 my everyday buddy.

Feedback

Just experiment. Take a shot in any angle or any part of the body. Be creative. Use prime lenses or macro lens. Try diffrent light, natural or with artificial lights. And don't be affraid of failure. Use it as inspiartion. THANK YOU ????
