Even though the weather was overcast, the massive redwood trees made everything pop.Equipment
Nikon D750 and Tokina 16mm 2.8.Inspiration
I am a street and travel photographer who had also been fascinated by fashion photography at the time. Thus as I was travelling the forests and shooting with my Mentor Ashok Kochhar, he decided to take some rest on this bench. This was the moment i realized that fashion/ portrait and travel/ street dont have to be mutually exclusive. Since then my photography style has switched to what i decided to call 'street fashion'.Editing
This photograph was edited in lightroom and utilized the features of Nik software silver FX.In my camera bag
At the time of shooting i had a nikon D750 with a tamron 24-70 f2.8, Tokina 16mm f2.8 and vintage Nikon 70-200 f2.8. Now i use a panasonic S1R for commercial work, combined with sigma art primes 24mm, 40mm and 85mm and irix 15mm 2.8. I utilize my fuji xt30 as my street camera with a 23mm f2 lens.Feedback
Always look for different angles you can capture your subject with. It is the photographers job to tell the story of the subject, be it a person or location. The best way to do that is to find the elements that fascinate you as the photographer and pointing to them in the photograph through exaggerating those features and use of poses/ angle/ lighting/ camera.
