Behind The Lens

Location

Stratford, London at Studio 49

Time

It was in a studio, so the time does not matter.

Lighting

Two studio lights were placed either side of the model with strip soft boxes and grids attached.

Equipment

Canon 5d MkII and Canon 24-70mm lens, two Elinchrome lights and wind machine.

Inspiration

I wanted to do some low-key black and white images. The model was perfect for this. I had someone to the right of the model hold a white sheet that was around her. I took some shots and then put the wind machine on, which created a better image. I wanted to create shape and shadow with the lights, which I achieved.

Editing

Not much just some sharpening and toning down slightly the highlights in Lightroom and Photoshop.

In my camera bag

Canon 5d MKII, Canon 24-70mm lens and 16-35mm wide-angle lens, Lee Big Stopper, Lee ND grad filters, cable release.

Feedback

You can keep it simple to create some dramatic images as I did here.
