Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in my in-house studio

Time

At night

Lighting

Shot in the dark with with one umbrella light to reflect a partial shadow across the face.

Equipment

Canon EOS Rebel T1i & Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Inspiration

I was experimenting in the dark with one spotlight effect on the model. I also wanted to reflect a soft touch and look in a vintage inspired look

Editing

Yes I did. I always use Adobe Lightroom. I used the Burn/Dodge features for the shadow effect to pop.

In my camera bag

Two prime lenses, one Zoom lens, fractal lenses and two hoods

Feedback

I would suggest playing around with placement of the umbrella light. Move it close and back from the model and make sure your room is completely dark.
