Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in a resort room in Jamaica, where we were vacationingTime
This shot is in the middle of the day. It's nice to sleep in sometimes, and shoot when well restedLighting
The room we're in faced East, so once the sun was fully overhead there was a nice diffuse light bouncing off the white building walls. There is a lamp on in the background not lighting the model, but adding texture to the sheers hanging from the bed.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 7Dii with a manual Helios 58mm F2 vintage Soviet lens.Inspiration
I wanted to shoot an up close and sensual set of nude photos, conveying emotion more than eroticismEditing
All my photos get basic processing for colour and to remove any minor blemishes.In my camera bag
When traveling I try to pack light. My camera, this vintage prime, a short zoom and a long zoom. Usually I'll carry one speed light just in case, and one collapsible reflector. Always lots of memory cards!Feedback
Look for situations with soft buttery light in the highlights, and enough bounce to keep the shadows within the camera's dynamic range. Try to find angles that flatter your model instead of the typical straight on portrait. Use the lines and edges that parts of their body make
