Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken in a part of Avon Forest in Dorset in the UKTime
It was taken around 3pm in the nice afternoon light we have here. We did not set out to create this but one of my favorite models Angel always comes with so much packed in her case so to start with she had an evening gown and then slipped into this little number and gave me some great poses as she just glided from one position to the next.Lighting
With the soft light finding spaces in the surrounding trees this pool of natural light was just perfect, nothing else but the available afternoon light was required to get the shot.Equipment
I use Canon 6D bodies and this was captured with a 24-105l series lensInspiration
i set out to do a set of images based around US football and Angel was given shoulder pads a helmet and wore a pair of bikini briefs white long socks and white pumps to compete the outfit, we headed off to our location to shoot and just saw this amazing light on the way and could not resist using it. Shooting with an experienced superb model like Angel you get far more that just a shoot. Its always great to have input from your subject and the ideas start flowing. Out of the case came this little Tutu skirt and that created the scene, who could resist?Editing
I am an avid spot remover so that was the extent to the adjustments on this perfect body. A slight bit of sharpening through my preferred program for that Exposure X6 and one of my preset values and that is it.In my camera bag
I carry 2 Canon 6D bodies, a Sony D7rii with a Canon lens adapter. A prime 100 mm f2.8, a 50mm f1.4 my trusted 24-105 L series and a 70-300 f4 zoom. Along with a video screen light meter and a whole host of accessories.Feedback
Use your eyes, its all there in front of you to create the images and capture them on what ever medium you are using.
