It's a beautiful picture but it should've been more care free than posed.

A posed portrait, is exactly what I was looking for in this shot.

Behind The Lens

Location

This image was taken in a beautiful yard in the country.

Time

This image was taken in the early evening, in between swatting hundreds of mosquitoes!!

Lighting

I wanted the sunlight to be behind her to keep any harsh shadows off her face.

Equipment

I used the Sony A7III with a minolta 80-200 2.8 lens with adapter.

Inspiration

This image is of my beautiful granddaughter on her grade 12 graduation day.

Editing

I used Photoshop CC for post processing. A bit of color correction in camera raw, some dodge and burning, and I used the patch tool for any distractions I wanted to remove. I also used frequency separation.

In my camera bag

I usually carry a 50mm 1.4, the sony 28-70mm kit lens (which I actually really like), and the tamron 90mm macro.

Feedback

Try to position the client with the sun behind them.....bring mosquito spray!!
