Slow Portraits with Fast Lenses
Sometimes it's better to slow down instead of relying on the newest and best technology. It makes you focused, creative and allows to build a strong connection to your subject.
In this video I take you behind-the-scenes of a slow portrait shoot. i will tell you why it's so beneficial to slow down and I'll talk about the (slow) gear that I used on this shoot:
- Fujifilm GFX50R
- Mitakon 65mm F1.4
- Vintage Minolta Rokkor 58mm F1.4 and 85mm F1.7 with a Kipon Adapter
- Sirui tripod
- Godox M1 RGB LED panels
- Godox SL60W LED light
- Phottix Raya 105cm softbox with grid
After the gear part I'll take you through the different setups that I used for the shoot. .
If you’d like to take a closer look at the images, be my guest:
As always: feedback is welcome about the video and the pictures. i’m also curious on how you slow down?
