Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Florida, Miami

Time

This was taken around 5pm in the Florida's winter

Lighting

There was some beautiful natural light at Ocean. Natural light, or more specifically sunlight, is the most plentiful and affordable light source but natural light doesn't always mean pretty light, so the winter light can be beautiful for portrait photography.

Equipment

Canos EOS 60D f/5 ISO:100, exposure 1/400 Focal Length: 80/1

Inspiration

I aim to produce beautiful and lasting portraits which reflect a person’s true character and capture the magic of natural light.

Editing

I edit the images carefully, I avoid over manipulation or special effects which I feel can date quickly and detract from the picture’s quality, was “some skin smoothing, curves and levels for contrast, vibrance boost in lightroom

In my camera bag

I always pack my Canon EOS 60D 85mm,100mm, and 135mm prime portrait lenses, and Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera, is a Sony E-mount 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS retractable zoom lens, which provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 24-75mm

Feedback

One of the most important things to consider if you are planning a shoot outdoors, is the time of day at which you shoot. I advise against working in the middle of the day, because it will be extremely difficult to work with the bright direct sunlight and you’ll find it difficult to avoid over exposing your images.Early morning and late afternoon are the best times for a natural-light portrait
