Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo on Folkestone beach, near to city where l leave in England. It was my very good friend wedding and we always planed on the beach.

Time

I took this photo around 4:00 PM, 06.06.2015 It was wedding of our friends from Church. Gloria was my first model. l saw her in her shop and l knew she must be my model. After the wedding she moved to USA with her new husband.

Lighting

The light was very good at that day as it wasn't very shiny, sun was behind my back and the sky has nice clouds. Was very cold at that day, so as soon as we came to the beach Gloria says I only got a couple of shoots and the we go. So I literally had just 5 minutes. I was lucky as a wind was blow in good direction. I only took this one and then Gloria says we go. That was my lucky shoot.

Equipment

This was shoot on Canon 500D , 50mm lens, my favorite one. 1/500s, f/6.3, ISO100. I didn't use anything else on that location.

Inspiration

Love always inspired me and for me there is no better place for nice and romantic pictures as a beach with the wind in the dress.

Editing

I re-sized the picture in Picasa, add more colors and used cloud layer for the sky in Adobe Photoshop CS3.

In my camera bag

I always take with my Canon 50mm, Canon 100mm, wild lens Tamron, tripod and loads of batteries and memory cards. I also have a filters but l use them very rare.

Feedback

The best tip for me is a weather, I like when sun is not shining too much as it take all colors from the pictures and make an unwanted shadows. Best is cloudy and model is looking towards the wind , therefore the hair are blown.
