Behind The Lens
Location
This is an abandoned property in Fairfax County, VA. That's all I'm saying.Time
Early afternoon, I think. This was december, and the sun was pretty low in the sky. One of those "unseasonably warm" days that is getting pretty seasonable.Lighting
Sun was behind me, light clouds diffusing things on and off throughout the shoot.Equipment
Canon 7D Mark II with my favorite lens, my 24-105mm F/4. I think that's it.Inspiration
Any chance to get to shoot with Lea. They're an amazing model, and a dear friend. This was part of a series of Blue Dress shoots we were doing. We'd done black dresses and red dresses. That year we did blue dresses. We got a lot of great photos.Editing
Nothing intense, if memory serves. Just some sharpening, a little dodging and burning. A little saturation boosts to their hair and the dress.In my camera bag
Canon 7D Mark II, 24-105mm F/4 Lens. A speedlight and remote trigger for it. A 2nd lens (either my 50mm 1.4 or 85mm 1.4, usually). Lenspen.Feedback
Find you a model who can just have fun, and knows how to feel the light. Take advantage of the days when the weather is working.
