Behind The Lens

Location

Miami Beach, Florida

Time

May1 2014

Lighting

Natural sunlight / 6pm , the light came from a window with a few natural shadows

Equipment

Canon 6D MK1 24-105 - f4 - canon lens (gen 1)

Inspiration

My mentor and uncle peppe who worked for andy worhole and shot fashion for 45 years thought me how to work in natural light. Peppe challenged me to take a shot In natural light and gave me certain guidelines. This is the result.

Editing

Very minor retouches. I used lightroom to check the symmetry and gave the image a slight splash of contrast. That’s pretty much all I needed. I shot aiming to have minimal modifications to do.

In my camera bag

Camera, 3 lenses (close, mid-range, long) ND filters Lens cleaners Laptop External HD Extra sd cards Flash LED lights Tape, ropes. Extra batteries Chargers (wires etc)

Feedback

No need to have big and expensive gear. It’s all in the creative vision and composition.
