Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in my living room actually. It was the darkest room in the house.

Time

It was shot at Night time

Lighting

I wanted to keep the background black and use a lot of shadow. I used the lighting in another room to light her face

Equipment

EOS200D. 50mm portrait lens

Inspiration

I had been to view my wife’s dance performance and wanted to capture her in stage make up.

Editing

Some subtle darkening of the background and smoothing of her skin

In my camera bag

Usually my prime lense and a zoom lens. Big telephoto lens when photographing sport

Feedback

Try to manipulate the lighting using other rooms/doorways in your house. Doesn’t always need fancy studio lights
