Behind The Lens

Location

We ventured to a little cute place called Christmas on Indian Lore. This was their first year with a sunflower field and it was amazing!

Time

It was around 5pm and not too long before sunset. We had partially clouded skies. A perfect day!

Lighting

I use a Flashpoint 600 and had it out about 10 feet from the model. I had a makeshift diffuser which was a white shirt over the flash.

Equipment

I used my Canon 5D Mark II and a 24-105 lens. My Flashpoint flash and make do diffuser which was just a white shirt!

Inspiration

My friend is super talented and I have been wanting to shoot in a sunflower field. I asked her if she would collaborate with me by making her own wardrobe and she never lets me down!

Editing

I only did slight beauty retouching in PS using a PixImperfect plugin.

In my camera bag

Camera, lens, filters, lens cleaning clothes, batteries and memory cards. I like to keep it pretty simple.

Feedback

Just be creative! Get together with a creative friend and let the magic begin! Also helps to have a magnificent sunflower patch!
