WHAT GEAR DO YOU USE?

From 2013-2020, I used a Canon 6D with a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 lens 90% of the time. In 2020, I upgraded to a Canon 5D Mark IV and have been photographing people with a Sigma 24-105 f/4 lens, and product with the same 24-105 and my Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens. For conceptual portraits taken outside or in studio, I find that a low aperture is less important, since my work isn’t focused on bokeh/shallow depth of field, and I usually have plenty of available light.

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE TO EXPOSE YOUR PHOTOS?

Personally I enjoy exposing for the highlights (making sure the brightest detail in the photo is preserved) and raising the shadows later, to give it that nice low-contrast look. So I do shoot under-exposed, technically. Your own choice should depend on your camera’s ability to handle shadow detail and your editing workflow. I just got into the rhythm of raising shadows, and it stuck! 

DID YOU STUDY PHOTOGRAPHY?

I took one class in high school and one in college, though the one in college was mostly theoretical – lots of abstract ideas about truth and art. I wouldn’t attribute my current knowledge of photography to either of those classes – rather years of practice. School is valuable, of course, but I recommend studying something else that’s interesting to you and just learning as you go with photography.

HOW DO YOU EDIT YOUR PHOTOS?

I use Lightroom for cataloging, comparing, and initial toning, and I use Photoshop for clean-up, color manipulation, and graphic elements. I have my own presets, which are available for sale here. You can also check out my YouTube channel for lots of editing tutorials.
