Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the model's home where we created a fairytale galaxy in her living room.

Time

I took this mid-afternoon to get that perfect natural lighting from the adjacent window.

Lighting

Just natural lighting from the window and some twinkling string lights. Then I played with the contrast and shadows in photoshop to get that fairy glow and really highlight the "stars"

Equipment

This was actually taken with my Galaxy S10e smartphone camera.

Inspiration

The skirt is from my client closet for my boudoir shoots and she brought the moon prop with her so we really wanted a galactic princess vibe.

Editing

I used my photoshop express app to desaturate the image and adjusted the shadows and highlights till the model and I were both happy with the outcome.

In my camera bag

I usually have one of my Canons or my old Kodak with me.

Feedback

Just have fun. You can use just about anything in your home to create something magical. Use your angles to create the illusion you want instead of breaking the bank to buy specific overlypriced props and equipment.
