Nature is my permanent location; modeling photography in nature

Hello to all friends
Hello to photography lovers .

Today I want to share another session of my sweetest photography with you.
A beautiful day, a pleasant open space, and a delightful subject that really captured the heart of the photo 😍
As always, I wanted to photograph all day long and... .

One thing that always fascinates me in outdoor photography sessions is the use of black and dark colors in the composition of scenes. Many people think that black gets lost in natural light and outdoor settings or is too heavy, but the reality is that if used correctly, it can give a very beautiful balance to the photo.

Black makes other colors stand out more; like a quiet background that enhances the appearance of other colors 😄 especially when natural light interacts with it, soft yet deep contrasts are created that are very pleasing.

Of course, I always pay more attention to dark colors because if the location is bright and the subject is wearing black, details may get lost in the shadows. That's why I usually either work with directional natural lighting or bring back details in editing, and I often use reflector bounce.

Overall, black in outdoor settings is like a seasoning.

We celebrated the 18th birthday of this beautiful model and stylish young lady in one of their relatives' gardens, which also had a narrow alley next to it. Just see for yourself how much the combination of black with the surrounding environment enhances the final appeal of the photo.

I think full-frame cameras really have a significant impact on the final quality of photos. Especially when the light is low or you want to capture a really good depth of field, they truly show their worth. I personally have a Canon camera that I'm very satisfied with.
And I think each camera brand has a different output color tone.
I feel that when I take photos with it, the final image has a special dimension that I can capture less with crop sensor cameras.
God willing, in the future, I plan to acquire cameras from Sony as well.

I usually get tired of being in one place and I like to change the atmosphere. We changed our place. We came to a side where there were some dry and semi-dry branches. Right there, I felt a special vibe, I said let me take photos here. The dryness and lifelessness of the branches had a special atmosphere. For many, it might not be beautiful at all, but our perspective as photographers is always different.
😉😉
Sometimes these locations resonate with me more than other places.

A hat really has a lot of impact in photography. I mean, a simple hat can change the whole vibe of the photo. When I want to work with a model, I often have some accessories like hats with me, so if I see that the photo is missing something, I suggest it. Many times it also makes the subject feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Especially if they are stressed, a hat can act like a shield for them!

In this photo, I wanted to give a simple pose but with a sense of movement. I told the model to lift the hat up to convey the feeling of freedom and playing with the leaves.
First, to look at the leaves and then quickly turn her gaze towards the camera.
We repeated these shots several times to have the best photo.
And I placed these two photos side by side in Photoshop so that it wouldn't have a sense of repetition, and of course, I felt that together they have more meaning.

We came to a place where in this low-energy and dry nature, I saw a few trees with green leaves that were very eye-catching. Right there, I felt a special vibe and thought how nice it would be for this pretty girl to take a few different poses among these branches with a hat. The light was good, the atmosphere had a sense of life amidst the dryness, it became an interesting combination.
I was really excited and enjoyed it for every shot.

In the last photo, I wanted to give a more special pose, playing a bit with the hat and the frame of the face. I told the model to bring the hat in front of her face, so that only one of her eyes would be visible. It had an attractive feeling. The light was also well cast on her face, especially that sparkle in her eye and the half-smile, exactly what I had in mind. It's simple but special and beautiful.
Of course, we practiced the pose several times with the subject before the final approval.
This photo session was one of those sessions that I was eagerly waiting to quickly sit down to edit the photos after the shooting.

You have probably experienced that some photo sessions have an incredibly high energy.
I hope you also felt the joy of shooting by seeing these photos.
I love you, my artist friends.
Until the next photo session.
Goodbye.
