Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was made during a workshop in a Studio in Aarau, Switzerland.Time
I made this photo on 2016 November the 6th at about 17:20.Lighting
The main light source (about 80% or more) was a Jinbei EF-200 LED continuous Light with a reflector in the size range of 120cm.Equipment
For this shot I used my Canon 5D Mk III in combination with the underestimated Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM Lens.Inspiration
The goal in this workshop was to learn how to shoot portraits in a studio with continuous Light and/or natural light.Editing
Always more or less! In this case less, because the idea is here the supporting part. My workflow: After selecting the photos to edit, I choose the color look for each set, then I correct, if necessary, the light of the picture. Then sometimes I make a beauty retouch and the picture is cropped if necessary and that's it.In my camera bag
For my portrait shootings I usually use my full format DSLR with a set of (relatively) fast primes: A 50mm, a 85mm or 100mm macro, the magnificent Sigma 24-35mm f2.0 Art Zoom for the slightly wider angles and the 70-200mm.Feedback
This picture ws made at the beginning of my photographer career but I learned that with a good idea and a relaxed model in a good mood you have nearly everything you need. Then choose your shooting location and watch the light during the shoot. A camera with manual control (but don't forget: the best camera is the one you have with you) and then go for it. And yes, don't forget to do some the post-processing ;-)
