Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in the studio and lab I worked for in Lenexa, KS. I was studying the body form for drawing and instead of having a model sit still for hours while I draw I decided to photograph her and her son. This is one of my favorites from that photoshoot.

Time

Not applicable, shot in a studio.

Lighting

I used a softboxes coming from begun the model and another coming from above.

Equipment

Nikon F100, speed lights, Tamron 70-200mm.

Inspiration

Trying to understand the human body better

Editing

Simple clean up of the back ground and dodging the shadows on the face and chest.

In my camera bag

Nikon D3400, nikkor 70-200mm and 18-55mm, 3 speed lights, water bottle, and snacks.

Feedback

Find a model that is comfortable being nude. Make sure the studio is warm and you have the background you want. I ensured in posing my model that the images could not be said to be nudes or pornographic as I did not show genitalia. That is what makes this art.
