Location
The photo was taken in a studio of a friend in Munich.Time
It is a studio photo, so the time of day is not really relevant. I took it on May 01, 2016 at 3 pm.Lighting
I have worked with some studio flashes. Here the light is coming from above. A bit like the sun. I love to experiment with light and shadow, because pictures with shadowy parts are always looking particularly exciting to me. There is an additional small light for the background. This is important for my work. It gives me the possibility to merge in textures and overlays later. I love the work with textures. It gives the photo something new.Equipment
This was a shot with a Canon EOS 5D Mark III with a 24-105mm lens, 1/100 sec. and f/4,0. And studio flash.Inspiration
On this day we planned to make stylings with flowers and blossoms. Because this kind of styling is very commonly used, we wanted to incorporate something new, which resulted in the idea of making a winter flower styling. Drought branches and white colors. And hardly blossoms.Editing
This image is a fairytale image. Therefore, the skin must be very beautiful and flawless. So I have taken some time for the skin retouching, as always ? Then I merged some textures into the background to give the picture a greater depth. Finally, I felt that the image could use a little glitter. For this I added textures that had broken glass and gloss points in it. In the end, I desaturated all the colors a bit to give the image a cool touch.In my camera bag
I usually have my camera (Canon EOS 5D Mark III) in my bag, two or three lenses (the 85mm, a 100mm and a 24 - 105mm), some batteries, a cloth for the lens, a replacement battery for the camera, a number of memory cards, the transmitter for the studio flash, handkerchiefs and a lip balm :-)Feedback
It's very important to master the basics of photography. And then for me the most important thing is the model. I not tired of repeating that :-) For these kinds of images you need ideas, meaning that you have to collect ideas, maybe at Pinterest or on some other photography sites. Also it helps, like in this case, to have a super creative model that can style herself so wonderfully. Of course a creative stylist can be very helpful too. And then practice, practice, practice. Practicing with Models, practice with light, practice with photo editing. And have fun, with the light, with the stylings. Have fun with it. For me photography is a passion :-)
