Location
Actually, I took the photo in my bathroom in Pennsylvania using my niece as my model.Time
I believe it was around noon because we had the blind half shut to block out some glare.Lighting
I am not good with lighting. I don't use my flash which is why I was trying the window light. We tried and tried until I got the light I was looking for.Equipment
Handheld Nikon D5100, kit lens, no flash. Trial and error. ;)Inspiration
I believe it was a "Teeth" contest. I like to check out the new contests and see what I can come up with.Editing
I used PicMonkey for the shine on her lip, cleaned up any blemishes/marks, whitened her teeth a little and that was about it.In my camera bag
I have since bought a new camera. I now use a Nikon D7200. I don't carry much - extra lens, extra battery, cloth to clean lenses always,Feedback
I am not where I want to be as far as photography BUT I do believe that you can achieve whatever type of photo you are seeking by by trying different ways to get your photo. I don't have a lot of expensive equipment, am not very educated with lighting (which I plan on changing), but through trial and error found a way to get what I wanted. Keep clicking until you get there!!!
