Title: Sun, wind and sunflowers
Model: Neha
Camera: Sony A7ii
Lens: Nikon NIKKOR 50mm F/1.4 AI-s
Aperture: F/1.4
Shutter Speed: 1/2,000 sec
ISO: 100

This was part of a series of shoots done during the summer. The goal behind this image was to capture the model's excitement of a wonderful day against a vibrant backdrop of sunflowers. To capture the dramatic essence of the background, I used the lens's ability to soft focus and achieve subtle bokha at a wide-open aperture.
The image was then edited in Photoshop to sharpen the model's facial features and to make a few colour adjustments to the entire scene.
