Behind The Lens

Location

This was shot at Bargara Beach in Queensland, Australia at a park that overlooks the ocean.

Time

Mid afternoon on a Saturday.

Lighting

All natural lighting.

Equipment

Nikon D3200, Nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens.

Inspiration

This was the wedding of a dear friend and I wanted to step outside of the box and make something unique to them as a couple. I had seen similar ideas in magazines and wanted to do a more theatrical feel to this. My friends absolutely love this image.

Editing

Yes there was a tree on the right side that had to be removed to give the focus to the bride's shoe and the men in the bridal party. I didn't remove the mark on the bride's ankle because she didn't want it removed. I do what my clients/friends want. They are the ones who get the end product.

In my camera bag

Nikon 3200, Nikon D7100, Tamron 70-200mm 2.8 lens, Nikkor 18-55mm lens, Nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens, Zomei ND1000 filter, Citiwide ND8 Filter, remotes, Vanguard Tripod.

Feedback

Do it, be patient, but just do it. You will be surprised by the thoughts and dreams you have for a shot and how they turn out. Have fun with it!!!
