Behind The Lens

Location

It was taken at my client's home in Perth, Western Australia

Time

It was taken mid-morning

Lighting

I used two flashes with a shoot through umbrella and a bounce umbrella.

Equipment

It was taken with my Nikon D700 with an f1.4 85mm lens, two flashes, one bounce umbrella and one shoot through umbrella.

Inspiration

It was obvious how much this child was adored by his mother and it was a very natural pose for her.

Editing

Nothing specific - perhaps just a little sharpening and a little skin softening.

In my camera bag

I now have a Nikon D750 and a Nikon D700, 2 SB700 speedlights, 1 SB800 speedlight, shoot through umbrella, bounce umbrella, Manfrotto tripod and the following Nikon lenses: 85mm f1.4, 105mm f2.8 Macro, f1.8 50mm, f2.8 24-70, f4.5 70-300, and f3.5 10-24mm.

Feedback

I asked the mother to forget I was there and to react with her baby as she would normally. This was taken towards the end of the session so she was very relaxed and the baby was sleeping.
