Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in a living room duly lit with four light sources. I am only an enthusiastic photographer living in Rio de Janeiro.Time
The photo was taken in the evening of 26th January 2017, Saturday at 19:21. It is a photo from a group of hundreds of others.Lighting
I used a large square sofbox as a fill light high in the front of the subject to soft the skin of the female subject. The use of one beauty disk on the viewer´s right side as the main light was used to create the three-dimensional forms of the subject with the their highlights and shadows and a strip bank on the viewer´s left side behind the subject´s line was useful as a rim light. Finally, there is also a white round reflector low in front of the subject to reduce the shadows on the bottom side of the subject. Everything was duly balanced to give a soft dark scenario in order to bring misterious to the scene.Equipment
Nikon D600 with a Zeiss Planar T* 1.4/85 ZF.2. Also a large square softbox , one beaty disk, a strip bank and a white round reflector.Inspiration
The idea here was to show a powerful and sensual female gangster. A pose to show power, sensuality, attraction, malice, control are the basic ingredients together with props that regularly represent the stereotype of a mafia´s bad guy (or woman) such as, cigar, hat, sunglasses and so on. What would it be a natural pose of such a powerful woman who controls the life of several people and loves to smoke cigar and feel herself sensual and attractive?Editing
A lot of processing here. A lot of masks and filters of different types to retouch the image and to improve the quality. Patience during the work.In my camera bag
A good camera, a zoom lens, a 50mm lens, neutral density filters, a tripoide, batteries, a speedlight and a notebool to register the process and the ideas.Feedback
Make the model happy and let her to participate of the process of image producing. Interest, calm, good humour, suitable music and white wine are welcome to relax the model and to create the mood.
