Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at my home studio in North Port Florida.

Time

We started the shoot indoor late in the afternoon, so I used a strobe with an umbrella for light, as my studio has no light coming in at that time of day.

Lighting

I wanted the light to be just enough to illuminate the model and then fall off the further it got away from her. I was pleased with the skintone against the grain of the wood flooring.

Equipment

I used a Canon 5D with a 24-70 Canon Lens. Lighting was an Alien Bees strobe and Wescott Parabolic Silver umbrella.

Inspiration

I would say that it was a preplanned shot, but I had just had the wood floor installed and it was a spur of the moment idea I had after we tried a few with a white backdrop that did not give enough contrast. It worked out well!

Editing

I did a little softening and color correction to my likes. I did not have mush to do as my model (Ivy Lee) was holding a perfect pose.

In my camera bag

A Canon 5D along with a 24-70 Canon Lens, a 70-300 Canon and a 50mm Canon.

Feedback

Keep your original plan of which shots you have planned to shoot but don't be afraid to try a spur of the moment idea.
