Behind The Lens

Location

Outside my studio. We have a window near the studio door, which is full of light in the afternoon.

Time

Afternoon. About 6pm

Lighting

Only natural light during the sunset.

Equipment

Canon 5d and Canon 70-200 mm

Inspiration

I love natural light. It's always a pleasure to work with it. I like the shadows and strong contrast.

Editing

I shoot black&white directly on camera. But, as you know, if you shoot RAWs the info is captured in colors. So, the only post-processing was: convert to black&white. And, I admit, little healing on the dark side.

In my camera bag

I love to shoot with long lenses. Especially my 70-200 mm. It is my favorite lens. If the job permits I always use it. So, you will always find in my bag my 5d camera (it can be my 5d classic or my 5d mark II camera), my 70-200mm lens and of course batteries, cards and charger.

Feedback

Try to experiment more with natural light. Don't be afraid of grain or hard shadows. They keep your photo alive. Trust the model you shoot and she will transmit this into your photos. The more you trust, the more attitude you have. Think about that: when you work with humans, you think you shoot their bodies, faces, and clothes. But... NO. If you want a true photo you have to see through them and shoot their souls.
