Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at Goddess photography studio in Montrose Pa 18801, I have a studio specializing in boudoir maternity and intimate lifestyle mother and child bonding sessions.Time
This portrait was taken at around 3p.m Est.Lighting
This portrait was taken with one light source, a speeding with diffuser for a more moody vibe.Equipment
Camera was Nikon d5300 with a 24-70 2.8 lens ,speed light with diffuser box, and tons of positive energy for this hard working mother that stepped out of her comfort zone.Inspiration
The feeling that overcomes me when doing boudoir portraits for women is an amazing grateful feeling. To hear someone say they can’t believe they are so beautiful, then to say that they have so much self confidence after it’sa feeling like no other.Editing
There was very minimal edit done to this image.In my camera bag
Normally in my bag you will find my shoulder strap, Nikon d5300 . The 24-70 2.8 lens which of my baby. My Sony a6100 , cleansing keep up kit. Lace & Crystal props to shoot through ,batteries ,charger and some tic-tac mints.Feedback
When shooting women in intimate setting understand their insecurities. I always do a pre questionnaire. This way your sensitive to their feeling. Making sure to be their cheerleader though out session. Showing them killer images on back of camera. That seems to pump them up when they see their beauty through a different light. All women are beautiful when you witness the empowerment it’sa gorgeous experience for everyone involved.
