Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in the city of cardiff.Time
This was taken approximately 3pm. We had wandered around different areas, starting just after 1.30pm... and this was just over an hour after starting our shootLighting
We had an off camera flash in a godox soft box on a stand as a fill in light on the face. My friend held it above the face so that the light looked quite naturalEquipment
I used a Canon 700D with a Canon 50mm lens. As stated earlier, off camera flash on a stand and softbox, no tripod. Just hand heldInspiration
My friend and I had spent the day looking for good spots and my model just had that magical look in her eyes at this moment. The lovely red leather jacket looked so good with her colouring of skin and hairEditing
This was taken into photoshop as a raw file and edited with a little skin softening via Gaussian blur and brightening of the eyes with the dodge toolIn my camera bag
Always carry a spare camera and a couple of lens. I have both canon 5d mark ii and mark iii. My 85mm and 50mm lens are my go to most lenses but for outdoor I love sigma art 135mm lens. Off camera flash canon.Feedback
Using a wide aperture, good natural light but not in bright sunlight if possible..unless model is shaded from harsh rays. Off camera flash will give light to the face. It’s good to have any sun behind the model and fill in then with the flash.
