Behind The Lens

Location

I was the owner of the premises where the photoshoot was organized, a small very luxurious B&B with the name Haagsche Suites ( i.e. Suites of The Hague). We used to have many honeymooners. The "Bride to be" brought her own photographer and the shoot was for both their portfolio's. I was allowed to shoot some photo's in the background....

Time

Approximately 4,30 PM, October 20, 2008.

Lighting

Daytime natural light. The model was standing in a door frame of a double door seperating the bedroom of the suite and the living situated in a glass roofed conservatory.

Equipment

Hand held Canon EOS 30D (APC crop sensor) with Sigma 50-150 F/2,8 with no stabilization. My hands were more steady than nowadays, because at 1/30 and 125 mm the photo is still reasonable sharp.

Inspiration

Her big musing smile

Editing

Not to my knowledge. In those days I was too busy to post proces any photo. After my retirement I've learned a bit more of lightroom post processing.

In my camera bag

I'm a guy that hates changing lenses, so I switch bodies. Usually I have a small Sony (RX 100 MIII) with 24-70 equivalent zoom in my pocket. My latest body is a Sony A7 III which I use mostly with a sigma Canon EF-Sony converter and a 16-35 mm F/4.0 Canon E zoom lens. That body I combine with a Canon D5 MII and a 24-70 IS MII lens or I combine the D5 with a Canon 7D MII with a Tamron 19-400 lens....

Feedback

Maybe knowing the model helps.
