During Golden HourLighting
Golden hour is great for getting that golden look. I made sure there was no sunlight on her so the trees would pop more.Equipment
Nikon D3300, hand-heldInspiration
Was just doing my normal afternoon photoshoots.Editing
I never use photoshop. I will never use photoshop. I only use lightroom. This is to show pride in the original image and only to perform light adjustments.In my camera bag
I keep my 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 and my 35mm f/1.8 in my bag at all times.Feedback
Don't waste your money on a high quality camera. If you don't know how to find good shots, you are wasting your money. Every photo currently on my profile was all shot using a Nikon D3300. A $300 camera. I put people have own the best sony cameras to shame, simply because I know what a good shot looks like. Also, always, always, always use manual mode. If you don't know manual mode, play with it, watch a youtube video on it. Using the correct settings at the right time can make your shot go from a 5 to a 10.
