Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at my place, in Paris.

Time

It was in the middle of the afternoon. Windows shot, lighting setup.

Lighting

I used several colored lights, to have more control over each channel, then desaturated them. One blue, two whites, on orange. The blue one was a spot light, the others were soft boxes. Nothing fancy tho.

Equipment

I used a Manfrotto tripod, with a 6d camera and an 85mm 1.8 canon lens

Inspiration

Halloween and Zombies. The model is a Zombie fan, and

Editing

I did a lot of retouching. If you'd like, I could upload the "before" and "after" images so you could see the difference! The cut arm has been entirely done at the post processing stage.

In my camera bag

I have an EOS 6D camera. I have 4 canon lens: a 50mm lens, an 85, a 100 macro lens, and a 24-105. i also both a 150-600 from Tamron.

Feedback

I work as a retoucher 25% of the time, and I had a makeup artist by my side. Both are important for this kind of photoshoot. Either focus on having a good makeup artist with a good budget for the makeup, or have a basic makeup with a good knowledge of how to retouch. Work on it, take a few days break, go back to it, repeat the process and you'll see new mistakes you've made!
