Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Glen Eyrie Castle & Conference Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Time

This image was shot in the afternoon in natural light. There was an open door leading outside and windows on the left hand side of the model.

Lighting

The image was lit with natural light. I did need to open the shadows up a in post.

Equipment

This was shot on Canon EOS 5D Mark III and Canon 24-105 f4 lense.

Inspiration

I had this concept planned for a while. I was going to a retreat and I knew there would be a lot of new people there. As an introvert, reaching out to people is always intimidating. I like that the image is open to different interpretations. What ever it means to you is right.

Editing

Most of the post-processing was color work. The wooden wall was very red wood, which I didn't like. Also the dress the model is wearing was originally pink. I really worked on the colors of the image.

In my camera bag

At the time I shoot with Sony A7R III and mostly different Sigma art-series lenses.

Feedback

The setup for this image was very simple. Just natural light was used. I spent some time finding the right spot to find a spot where the light was right, but all in all the set up was very simple.
