Location
This photo was taken in the studio of friend Christian Ghelardini at San Piero a Sieve during a workshop with friends.Time
The photo was taken in a night of November 2014 with the help of a studio flashLighting
I used two studio flashes. One for filling and the other as main. Above the lamp was mounted a beauty to make the whole thing softer.Equipment
For this shot I used my Nikon then (D4S) using the 24-70 Nikkor f2.8 at the focus 70.No tripod.Inspiration
The beauty of the model and the contrast of blond hair on the dark background has strongly inspired this shotEditing
Little post production. Develop raw files, light skin treatment with Photoshop and soften contrastsIn my camera bag
Now in my bag is: Nikon D5 and Nikon D750 Nikkor 14-24; 24-70 and 70-200 f2.8. Nikon 85 f1.4 - Macro Nikon 105 - Flash Nikon, fisheye Sigma and Tamron 150-600Feedback
I love all photography but I love the woman I love to photograph in every pose. I like to discover new cuts of photos and new shots (although it's hard to do something really new). Tips to give? Invent and have the courage to do absurd things as well. And more than that, have fun!
