Behind The Lens

Location

I took this shot in a small photostudio. The model was sitting on a chair in a small inflatable pool to capture the water we where throwing kver him.

Time

N. A.

Lighting

I wanted the image to look powerfull and dramatic. Therefore i positioned a softbox straight above the mode to create lots of shadows. A small reflector then brought some light back into his eyes.

Equipment

I used a sony a7ii with the zeiss batis 25mm lens. Also i used a continuous lamp with a softbox.

Inspiration

The inspiration for this photo was all the bad things going on in the world. Through this photo i wanted to spread the message that whe should stay strong whatever happens.

Editing

I raised the blacks and played with the clarity in lightroom. I also cleaned up some of the water splashes in photoshop.

In my camera bag

I always carry around my a7ii with a nice prime like the zeiss batis 85mm and a super wide angle zoom.

Feedback

Get a studio, a bucket of water and experiment!
