Behind The Lens
Location
I took it at my home,Time
It's daily light, light was difused, also I used a flash.Lighting
Sometimes to reach a desired effect is easy, not require complex lighting. I wanted to emphasize this young dreamful look with a lot of light, strait going to face.Equipment
I used Olympus film camera, tripod, flashInspiration
I just wanted to explore portraits, to transfer the character of model- person to the photograph.Editing
Yes, I made the space behind model dark, to cancel any other details.In my camera bag
Now I have professional film camera Bronica etr-si (medium format). For street photography I may go wihtout a tripod, but for a landscape always I take a tripod, cause I prefer to use aperture 16-22, what gives a good depth of field. I take also some filters, cleaning tools.Feedback
1- to understand what do you want to underline with the portrait: just beauty or some character, then think how to emphasize it with light, color, others. 2- feel the right moment to take a photo, never hurry. 3- be yourself, it helps a model also to be natural
