Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken at my childhood home - one of my quiet places where my creativity can flourish without judgement.Time
My cousin and I always find reasons to pick up the camera even if it’s just for fun. This was one of those times - one idle Saturday afternoon.Lighting
I love natural light. I picked the room with the most light at that time of day which happened to be my brother’s room.Equipment
This was shot with a Canon 6D and a Sigma 50mm lens.Inspiration
The way the natural light brightened the room screamed photo op. I wanted it to be a photo with meaning. I’m very introverted and I prefer to be behind a camera. So as I was behind my Canon 6d, I captured my cousin behind her film camera as we were both behind a window.Editing
I just darkened the blacks and whitened the whites with a little fade.In my camera bag
I like to travel light. My favorite lens is the Sigma 50mm so I will normally have that with my Canon 6D and an extra battery.Feedback
Natural light makes for the best photos. Find yourself a window and play around with it at all angles!
