The Joy of Living © 2019 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott
Here's another from my "forest fire portrait" series. I used the incredible Zeiss Otus 100mm F1.4 (a true portrait beast!) for this image, and it melted away the background into something special. I lit the scene with 2 Godox V1S flash units (one for fill, another as a hair light). The flare effect is an overlay I added in post for stylistic purposes. I love the natural happiness in this shot from my model (my daughter) that adds its own joy to the shot.
