Location
I shot this in Zurich with my mentor Roger Michel Fischmann, it was in August I think 2015, time just flies!Time
Ah well that would be telling, but as this was studio shot it was not important. LOLLighting
Wow - The Million Dollar Question - Well I can only go by what my mentors have told me build slowly, get the first light right and the build on your next light and so on, it takes time and even though there are many technical aspects, lighting it is everything.Equipment
I shot this with the Canon 5DSR with a 24-70mm Lens, my favourite lens for this camera, I was also shooting with the Sony AR7II with the Zeiss 55mm Lens a dream lensInspiration
Working with Roger, who organised the shoot and was mentoring me, we basically asked the model to pose, Nirmala Fernades is a consummate professional, an artist, most people who have little understanding of a model and her profession have know idea, she made the shoot and the shot!Editing
Yes! Shhhh! Not a vast amount though a few levels in Light Room, I now use Capture One, and frequency separation to perfect the skin, but very little as Nirmala was near perfectIn my camera bag
well, I am very lucky indeed, so I will not bore you, but I have a big Bag!!Feedback
Know your goals, plan and have patience, do not give in, dream big and aim high, hone your skills and listen.Listen Listen. This shot would not have been possible if it had not been for Roger Michel Fischmann and his excellent skillset. Nirmala was amazing, al KL Makeup and Hair from the UK and Switzerland oh and remember when shooting with on a project or shoot like this it is team work and remember to credit people, yes you may have shot the image but there are a lot of individuals not just YOU!
