I saw this in my feed and couldn't help but remember a recent add from Regal movie theaters that featured a man whose mother loved movies so much that he was born in a theater and came home in a popcorn bucket. Thank you for bringing up a smile to my face, but I have to ask, how long did she smell like buttered popcorn after the shoot?

I love the idea, great light shoot, but to me, this should have been sexist shoot, should show her beautiful brust line, not full, but some idea of it! Sorry I hope you don't mind, but that my opinion!

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo I took it at an apartment in Mellieha which I sometimes use as a studio.

Time

I was working to Achieve an Associateship in photography with the Malta Institue of Professional Photography when I came with this idea. Since working inside I could work at any time but this was taken around 8pm.

Lighting

I wanted to give the idea that the model was nude under the popcorn. She wasn't and actually she had a blanket on top of her and than I trowed the popcorn on top.

Equipment

As for equipment I used two Canon 580 MKII speed lights with umbrellas, two light stands and my Canon DSLR 7D.

Inspiration

As I mentioned before I was working on my Associateship in photography with the Malta Institue of Professional Photography when I came with this idea. Every early morning I love looking at other photographers work to see what is going on and what maybe ideas I can adapt to my work. Not copying but get ideas and inspirations. I saw a photo with fruit which was totally different and popcorn popped in my mind.

Editing

Taking a good photo as you can saves you alot of time in post processing is my motto. I only cropped, enhanced the photo with levels in photoshop and sharpened it. Thats it.

In my camera bag

I am a photo journalist which is totally different from Fashion lol. In my bag I carry two cameras a Canon 7D and a Canon 5D MK III. Four lenses Canon 24-105mm f/4 L series, Canon 17-40mm f/4 L series, Canon 70-200mm MK II f/2.8 L Series and Canon EF MK II 50mm, Canon Speed light 600 EX-RT and several spare batteries for Cameras and Speedlights and loads of CF Cards.

Feedback

You have to do your home work very good before you go for any type of shoot. Know the place before going to shoot, meet the model before the shoot if it is your first time working with her as it helps you breaking the ice as well. Get inspired by other photogrsphers work but don't copy, try to come out with something more creative.
