Behind The Lens

Location

In the studio with a lot of fabric and a fan. My model just played around with the fabric and the fan helped create shape with movement.

Time

Afternoon

Lighting

I used an orange gel on the back right and a soft box at front left illuminating the model from a butterfly stance this is my favourite style of lighting to use.

Equipment

Nikond3500 and between a 50mm lens and an 18-50mm lens

Inspiration

I really wanted to create a story of colour shape and movement with contrasting colour fabric and gels with the fan to help move the fabric

Editing

I did a little bit of post processing in light room. Just enhanced colours and contrast, brought orange down slightly as it was making her skin too warm.

In my camera bag

Wide angle lens, nifty 50 lens and lots of light sources for creative long exposure photography like light painting.

Feedback

Use a wide angle lens a tripod and stand further back from the model to capture the grandiosity of movement. This is what I didn't have and would like to try again now I have a wide angle lens.
