Behind The Lens
Location
the photo was taken at my photographic studio in Fidenza in the north of ItalyTime
the time is not very important since it is a photo that was taken in the studio but I can say that the best time to photograph children is definitely in the morning because the children are less tired.Lighting
For this kind of photographs in my opinion it is always good to use a very soft light because the shadows are not so hard and the complexion is more delicate.Equipment
For this kind of photo I use my camera, a sony a7iii, a normal lens and a studio flash. It is not essential to use super speedy lenses because it is not necessary to open the diaphragm very muchInspiration
I love portraying children and I am inspired by Russian photographers who are very good in this genre.Editing
yes, I did a light post production to correct the colors and little flaws of the child's skinIn my camera bag
Normally in my bag I have my faithful sony a7iii, the 35mm, the 85mm and a speedy zoom. Then when I'm around I have a speedlight flash and a led panel. all equipment that I use for portraits which are my favorite genre. I also shoot some events.Feedback
Personally I can recommend looking at the works of new born specialist photographers and in particular for example Olesya kovalchuck and Alena Gorohovskaia and many others who certainly have a lot to teach to those who want to try their hand at this genre. I also recommend taking a workshop and lots of practice.
