Behind The Lens

Location

In my bedroom

Time

Some time after 10 pm

Lighting

I wanted something a little dramatic looking so I just went with a key light and a rim light to make her pop a little

Equipment

Nikon d300s, 17-55mm 2.8, 2 Paul c buff 640ws Einstein

Inspiration

She was very good at looking serious plus she is very pretty so we just played around and we're happy with the outcome..lol

Editing

Nope

In my camera bag

At that time I was working with a limited number of lenses which were very outdated but now I have my 70-200mm 2.8, 14-24mm 2.8, 50mm1.4, and my 20mm prime

Feedback

Move your lights around and play with the light, use different modifiers, bounce cards etc. otherwise just keep shooting because plain dumb luck also prevails. Lol
