Another shot from last weeks photoshoot at Papplewick Pumping Station.
This is Natasha, sat on a wrought iron staircase, lit by natural light from a window. Photographed with a Helios 44-2 58mm f2 Russian Vintage Lens ( from 1973) attached to my Sony A6000
Such a beautiful model , a delightful pose and beautifully captured Phil. The light is exceptional, Love the upright upper body and then the frothy almost smoke-like, lower skirt ! fav
I much prefer natural light for portraits, I think it tends to be, well, more natural! It brings out the skin tones and the drape of the dress here. Lovely tones in this and the pattern in the stair risers makes a pleasing counterpoint to your model.
@dulciknit thanks Alison , I always prefer natural light , I am not comfortable in a "studio lighting" setup. I love that this was done on a fifty years old charity shop lens .
@zilli that is kind of you to say zilli
@corinnec merci corinne, natural light is always good
