Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at my home studio in Lithuania, Vilnius. People and most of women around me often inspire to take creative picture of them, so the model in the picture is also my friend that I wanted to shoot for a long time.Time
This photoshoot had to be creative and fun way to spend an evening. I invited several friends in promise that I will take some pictures of two of them. But I was full of entusiasm and it took much longer than it was planned. So in a result i didn't have a chance to join and talk with them but even better - I made photographs that I am realy glad.Lighting
I wanted to create dreamy and a bit mystic scene from the past with a cinematographic feel. So i decided to use modular light with softboxes and left the background darker to make a more dramatic look.Equipment
I used Nikon D600 camera with 85mm, f/1,8 lens.Inspiration
Like I said before, i meet a lot beautiful women and not just appearance but the whole entirity that I have a permit to know inspires me. Also, women that never had a photoshoot before often are better than professional models in craetive photoshoots. They act more real and unique, so the result often surprises me.Editing
To make my pictures more dreamy I allways do post-procesing. This makes a picture like a piece of art and helps to create the main focus that you want to highlight.In my camera bag
I do not have many equipment, mostly I like to use fix lens like 50mm and 85mm, because they have a great angle.Feedback
The most attention I take is model's face and body talk. Every single body part from head to toe has to create a flowing composition. My advice would be not to overload portrait with many items. Background fills a story in the picture, but a person and his face and body expression must speak mainly.
