Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken in Milan on the occasion of the presentation of the new Nikon D850 (which I later bought). The shot was however made with my Nikon D5 using the set made available by NitalTime
I took the picture around one in the afternoon on the Nikon stand.Lighting
The lighting consisted of a main light positioned to the left of the model and a weaker filler light used to make the girl's back uniform. The main lamp was positioned higher than the model's head and recolved downwards. Only fixed light. No additional flash.Equipment
I used my Nikon D5 equipped with the Nikon 70-200 on the maximum focal length. Diaphragm f5 1/50 400iso and spot light. Freehand shootingInspiration
The beauty of the model was the inspiration for this picture. I then tried to resume a position and an attitude that I liked. I'm so far removed from the many photographers present (we were at the presentation of the D850) waiting for the moment and the position that I liked maggiromenteEditing
In addition to the development of the raw file and the conversion in black and white with color efex, I applied a soft focus filter (always with color efex)In my camera bag
Today in my bag are present: Nikon D5 and D850. The Nikon triad (14-24; 24-70 and 70-200) in addition to the 85> Nikon f1.4. The 2x focal duplicator is also always presentFeedback
At the tests of the D850 there were many photographers and I did not want to take a picture that was the same as everyone else. I mounted the 70-200 and I came out of the crowd trying to capture a pose and a slightly more original light than the others. The advice that I give to give is to try not to conform to the mass but to create something different. The set was created with a wedding dress. Too simple to photograph the whole dress. Much better than the picture of this beautiful sweet face.
