Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo off of a nature trail close to Tamps, FL. I'm self taught in both editing and photography, so I played around with edits on this photo for a bit before I settled on one I loved.Time
We did this photo session right before golden hour when the light wasn't too harsh.Lighting
This image was taken with natural light under the cover of trees, so we did have to work with some shadows throughout the trail. But every once in a while we would find a completely covered area with the perfect lighting.Equipment
This image was captured on my DSLR Canon rebel t7 believe it or not. I used my 35mm 1.8 lens from Canon as wellInspiration
This was taken from a styled shoot I attended, my first one actually, and I really wanted to capture the beauty between animal and human.Editing
I edit on Lightroom and I mainly just turned down the greens in color. I really wanted the subjects to pop so I also sharpened them up a bit and lifted their shadows.In my camera bag
I've got a camera backpack which I highly, highly suggest. In there I always have my Canon rebel t7 camera body, my speedlight, my three prime lenses (85mm, 35mm, and of course the nifty 50mm) and one I use for my wide shots (24mm), I've also got my spare SD cards, battery and charger, and my business cards.Feedback
Instead of waiting on the perfect moment to shoot, shoot when your heart tells you. A lot of my best images have come from shots I took when I felt the subject was most comfortable instead of waiting for them to make the perfect pose, including this image.
