Location
This photo was taken in the Carytown neighborhood in Richmond, VA.Time
This photo was taken around 7pm.Lighting
We were just walking around the area looking for interesting doorways, murals, or storefronts to use as a background. It was starting to get cloudy as a thunderstorm was approaching. The light kept changing but we kept shooting.Equipment
Canon 5D Mark III, 85mm f/1.8, handheld, natural lightInspiration
This area of Richmond is very diverse and has a certain style and soul. Ashely is a good friend and one of my favorite models. We work together well. This shoot was just a casual, fun evening that was more spontaneous than planned.Editing
Post-processing in Lightroom and finished in Photoshop. I was experimenting with color grading and achieving a slight matte look.In my camera bag
Canon 5D Mark III, 50mm f/1.8, 85mm f/1.8, 24-105mm f/4, Yongnuo flashes, Hoya CPL filtersFeedback
Just find a family member, a friend, anyone who is willing to pose and get out there and shoot. Practice what you do well and then use that confidence to try something new. Keep experimenting and have fun!
