Home shoot

Yesterday I had a shoot with Xenia again, almost exactly a year after our previous shoot. This photo was taken in her home just in front of a southwest-facing window (to her back). Natural lighting only.

I did some postprocessing to make her face slightly brighter, to avoid too much contrast.

This photo was made about a year ago in Xenia’s home. It’s quite messy but that’s exactly what I liked for this B&W picture.

Another one from the indoor shoot last Tuesday. I love the relaxed feeling this photograph radiates.

Here are two things that I don’t do often – using natural light and a home scene.

The light was not particulary bright anymore – thanks to Canon 6D’s excellent ISO properties which still catches enough light. The lens was Canon’s 50/1.4.

The photo was taken in her bedroom and hardly postprocessed except for the obvious black & white conversion. It fits the girl’s character, it was much fun to try this as a change to the controlled studio environment!
