Location
The photo was taken in a private apartment. It was a great experience to me.Time
This photo was taken almost at midnight. I prefer working at the end of the day or at night - it's so peaceful at this time, and I can enjoy fully to my passion.Lighting
It was one of my first photo sessions. Everything was new and not complete conscious for me. I was trying to "feel" more than to "think" about the light.Equipment
This photo was shot on Canon 450D, with Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Lens, flash and softboxInspiration
I first saw this woman on the stage - she is actress. She was playing a role with the same passion I use for taking photos or paint. It was magnificent! Her face was "screaming silently"all the emotions... I thought "What it will be if she "plays" with the light". And she did it - beautiful, powerful spectacle for my first photo session.Editing
I don't feel right to post-processing my photos. In this one this is the exact way she was taken. I believe if you want to keep the spirit of your photo close to reality, you don't have to post-processing it to much (or not at all).In my camera bag
Just my camera Canon 60D and Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II LensFeedback
I don't feel confident enough, to give anyone advice about light, or equipment, or any technique. For me the most important thing is to connect honestly with the artist inside yourself - everything else is learnable (one way or another).
