Behind The Lens

Location

it was taken in Dubai, in the DIFC district

Time

it was nearly around 6 pm as far as i remember

Lighting

all natural light, i was using the fairy lights to add some bokeh around the model, but that was about it, rest of the light was all natural.

Equipment

I used the canon 5dmkIV and the canon 100mm 2.8 L

Inspiration

This was one of my first attempts at shooting portraits to be honest, and back then I was fascinated by the use of fairy lights in portrait shots.

Editing

yes I do, all of my processing is done through lightroom for color grading and adding a bit of tones to the photograph.

In my camera bag

both my 5dmkIV and my 7dmkII plus a variety of canon L lenses, 16-35, 24-105, 50, 85, 100 & 70-200

Feedback

it's never wrong to try and shoot an idea that you've already seen thats been done, but make sure you interpret it into your own style and create something different, always add your own touch and make it your signature.
