Behind The Lens
Location
Makeshift studio in Southern CaliforniaTime
Late in the day.Lighting
I had a crazy setup with 2 continuous lights and 2 speedlites to create the desired effect.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 5D Mark II with a 24-105mm f4L lens.Inspiration
I was shooting a young high school senior who lettered in three sports. We wanted to focus on his Basketball avid Football experience.Editing
I edited this image in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop to increase the clarity and to fix the white balance.In my camera bag
I usually carry 2 to 3 bodies because I hate stopping to change lens once I start shooting.Feedback
For dramatic portraits , play around with lighting to get the desired effect then bring the subject into play afterwards. This way, they ate fresh and you don't miss a good pose or input from them because of technical issues.
