Behind The Lens

Location

Took this photo in our old apartment.

Time

7 to 8 pm... definitely night time.

Lighting

Lighting in the house was dim so simply enhanced the shadows and vignette.

Equipment

This photo was taken with a Fuji x-s1 with flash

Inspiration

My wife was trying to calm our first born and after a very hearty cry the emotion from their faces just captivated me. This is still my best photo I've taken and I cannot believe it's been over 3 years already.

Editing

Adobe photoshop. Completely darkened the apartment and utilized the silvery/gray. I truly wanted to get the audience to feel that love between a mother soothing her baby.

In my camera bag

currently I work with two items at the moment. A Saumsung A6 and a Nikon D7200. Working my way to yet another upgrade in the future.

Feedback

Let the moment come to you. Takes patience to capture a moment so endearingly sweet.
