An Evening at the Beach #3


Not a lot to say about this photo except that I used some of the same techniques that used in last Friday’s post—although, I did not have an orange gel on my flash which made Lauren’s face look more natural.  Rather than incorporating the sun in the frame, I used Lauren to hide it.  I wanted to maximize the edge lighting on her hair and shoulders. 
Enjoy. 
Camera settings:  Nikon D3, Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 at 200mm, f/4.8 and 1/750th of a second. 
Post Processing: 
Lightroom 3:  Set black point, added contrast with a mild curve and cropped image to 4:5 ratio.

  1. Nice. With this one, you should start calling her Saint Lauren because of the glow around her head.
