Hello Steemit!
What does the portraitist photographer's dream look like? And so - a red-haired girl with freckles! So I want to introduce you - Natasha))
In fact, I was looking for such a model for a long time, and despite looking closely at passers-by, I did not get a suitable candidate. But having decided to write an announcement about the search for models, a miracle happened and Natasha wrote to me. By the way, at that moment I found myself another amazing girl - Lena, and even photographed them in one day.
Perhaps you noticed that recently I especially like girls with freckles and the reason is not so literal as it might seem at first glance. In fact, girls with freckles have become a special discovery for me - it's just the perfect combination with my camera. The fact is that the texturing of the skin occurs only on very close portraits, and it's worth removing a slightly more distant plan, the skin becomes smooth, because of what after the photo processing there is a feeling of "soap". But freckles - this is a real solution, because they themselves represent a texture and are visible from all distances.
We planned to photograph Natasha in dandelions and chose a beautiful place in nature. At that moment everything was strewn with these flowers, each piece of land throughout the city. But, when we arrived at the place of the photo session, we were shocked that the huge glades and the forest surrounding them were almost completely empty. In one place it was possible to find a small cluster of dandelions, but still it was not what I wanted. Nevertheless, we decided to move away from the topic and made just beautiful portraits.
I've photographed here many times, but this place never gets boring. It has many interesting locations, such as glades, forest, cliffs by the river, river, beaches, a lake, a huge old thick tree and a small forest river. And this is only part of the territory. The river in the forest, by the way, I always liked the most, it looks fabulous and extraordinary at any time of the season.
A special idea was to create a certain hairstyle, with dandelions interwoven in it, since I did not want to photograph the girl as she is, like many other photographers do, I wanted to create something more original. And for this idea, I decided to take my girlfriend with me, because I'm not particularly strong in braiding braids and wreaths of flowers.
Four plaits were made: two thick ones, coming from behind the ears, with dandelions interwoven into them, and two thin ones from above, but they are not particularly noticeable. We also had two sets of blouses, but we used only one, because it looked very good with the model :)
Now we are in plans with Natasha to go in the fall to a waterfall, which is a couple of hours away to take a photo shoot. And only in the autumn, because in the summer there is a huge number of mosquitoes and holidaymakers, which will greatly complicate any work. In addition, we still need to make a costume, and I still can not define the final image for the model: either it will be a warrior girl, partially in armor, or it will be an ethnic style with a touch of shamanism. But maybe both ideas will be realized, but on different models :) And how do you think, which of these ideas would suit Natasha?)
Thank you for attention and apologize for my English :)

Love the pictures. That's a great looking blue on the water. Cheers mike
Thanks!)))
Natasha is gorgeous plus the skill of the photographer makes the picture looking good and excellent. Nice capture
Thank you very much!!!))
You really have a good quality of image.
Thank you, I try) But it's not always possible with my Nikon D3200. When will I buy a new camera one, I think the result will be much better :)
I dont know how these cameras work though. To me as long as it captures a good picture its fine. But as I continue seeing beautiful images in steemit, Im also gaining interest of having a good camera.
Any recommendation, what camera produces excellent image?
My camera sometimes is good for portrait shots (though only in combination with a good portrait lens, such as 35mm 1.2 or like an me - 50mm 1.4). For more advansed features, I would advised the Nikon D610 or D750. Because sometimes want to do high-quality pictures of nature and full-height shots of people. These models are ideal for such purposes. They are universal and produce an excellent result.
But the choice of camera for everyone depends all the same on the preferences, goals and ability to work in manual mode)
How much are those? Does it requires skills to have them?
Your photos are very good for shooting them on the D3200, it is a decent camera. Its the skill that matters, you can have the best gear it doesn't mean you're a great photographer.
Thank you) Yes this is true. But, the equipment of a higher class, allows any person to make very high-quality pictures. And with a little effort, can get a very decent result.
amazing pictures, when I see red hair ladies I always get some special feeling..
Thank you! Yeah, these girls have a special magical charm :)
Wow, she looks pretty amazing. Your photos are great too ;-) :))
Thank you very much!))
I love red hairs models.
