Location
It was taken in my apartment, using a tripod and setting the timer on the cameraTime
It was taken in the afternoonLighting
I was lucky enough to get a good lighting just using natural light coming from the windowEquipment
I used a Nikon D5100, a tripod and a 50 mm lensInspiration
I was practicing taking self portraits and wanted it to be black and white, love black and white portraits.Editing
Yes I used Photoshop to do some sharpening and adjust the exposureIn my camera bag
My Nikon D5100, tripod, flash, extra memory card, 3 batteries and lens cleanerFeedback
Using a 50 mm lens is a very good idea if you want to do portraits, also take into consideration the kind of light you need and always use a tripod, the background is also very important I used a white wall to give me a good black and white contrast
