Location
Just a few miles south of Paris, IL.Time
This was taken at sunset.Lighting
I didn't use anything but the natural available light. No flash equipment.Equipment
A Canon 5D Mark III along with a Canon 135mm 2.0 lens.Inspiration
I was inspired by the thought that this photo would be something they would never forget. These two have been dating for quite some time and I just wanted to capture something very relaxed and natural of the two of them.Editing
I used Lightroom and Photoshop.In my camera bag
My Canon 5D Mark III, 135mm 2.0, 50mm 1.4, & my now favorite Canon 85mm 1.2.Feedback
Try to think of a natural setting and not something posed. Let your subjects be themselves. Try a variety of different shots. I personally just asked my clients to have a seat and that it would be a few minutes until I found the right set up on the camera that I wanted for this photo. All along I was actually trying different shots and they didn't have a clue. So they just sat there naturally talking and probably laughing about me and it worked out great.
