Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my home makeshift studio. I just started out working with strobe lighting and she was fun to shoot with.

Time

This shot was done in the afternoon. I remember texting her and ask if she would model for me. She cam over after work that afternoon.

Lighting

Not much to tel on lighting as I'm new to studio lighting. I do remember using the Alien Bee 400 with a beauty dish and a reflector at the bottom for some fill.

Equipment

I just got the 6D and wanted to test the results compared to my 70D. All I can say was Wow!!. I used the Sigma 24-104 and can't believe the difference from the 2 cameras. I used Alien Bee 400 with a beauty dish for main lighting and a reflector under the chin for fill.

Inspiration

Just a man with a camera just wanting to take pictures and practice. I love photography and was doing Astrophotography for awhile. Light pollution got bad where I live so i sold all my gear and got into Landscapes and Portraits.

Editing

I did some light adjustment in Light room the transferred to PS to clean up blemishes.

In my camera bag

Right Now I keep the 6D with the Sigma 24-105 on most of the time. I just love that lens. In my Other bag I have the 70D with a Tamron 70-300 for Birding. A few filters and a couple of yongnuo flash's.

Feedback

All I can say is practice, practice and more practice. This photo is no where near as good as it could be with better post processing. I know when I save this and uploaded the color space was changed and I just left it. So be careful how you save.
