Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in a hotel room in Chamonix in France

Time

It was in April 2018 in the afternoon. Exactly the time I don't remember

Lighting

The lighting was natural light coming from the window. Only that, it was very bright.

Equipment

My Nikon D810, my nikkor 50mm F / 1.4 lens

Inspiration

Images of Peter Coulson, but especially my instinct, what I feel at the moment, because it is an inspiration that comes along the shooting, according to the feeling that we have with the models.

Editing

I started by slightly adjusting the exposure on lightroom. Then I went to photoshop there there was a little more work to correct small imperfections such as small buttons. No retouching on the physical because I find that it is a lack of respect towards the models. I passed the image in black and white and then I retouched with the dodge & burn. I darkened the whole background to give a slightly more cozy atmosphere, and especially to bring out my model.

In my camera bag

My nikon camera, my lenses, an SB900 flash

Feedback

Study the light, look around you what you can use as a reflector, place your model in a light port. Let your instincts direct you, and the feeling that there is with the models, because this is what matters most to get out of the images as realistic and as natural as possible.
