Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at a boat dock in Bronston KY on Lake CumberlandTime
I took this photo around 5 pm before my daughter went to prom.Lighting
I used natural lighting when taking this picture. When editing I used a blur backing and shadowing on the edgesEquipment
I actually took this picture with an iPhone. No other equipment was usedInspiration
We wanted the lake as a background. The positioning was to look as though she was resting thinking back at memories that led up to the excitement of going to prom in a teenage life.Editing
No post processing was used.In my camera bag
For the iPhone nothing in my bag but when I carry my camera I always have several different lenses, a lens wipe, and a small tripod.Feedback
I do a lot of nature pictures and I have found that early morning or evening is better for natural light. I take several pictures of the same pose/scenery. This helps later when editing. You pick the picture that has best lighting, pose, facial expression, and colors.
