Location
This photo was created from a number of images in my studio and pieced together to create the levitating effecting by removing the item the model was balancing on.Time
Sometime in the evening.Lighting
To create the spot light effect I used a 22" white beauty dish with a grid to the right front and a 4' x 6' soft box to the left for highlights. This was shot in a rather large 25' x 60' studio space with 30' ceilings so light liked to disappear very easily unlike my smaller studio space now.Equipment
Nikon equipment, Paul C Buff Lights, and Adobe SoftwareInspiration
Wonder.Editing
The smoke was added post production, multiple images used to achieve this one image via Photoshop.In my camera bag
Nikon D750 w/ 85 mm, 50 mm, 70-200 mm, 90 mm Marco and Tokina 16-28 mm Lens don't leave home with out them.Feedback
Find a cushion for subject to use when they are balancing, it makes it less uncomfortable!. Use a tripod. Always have a final image in your head and stick to it!
