In the Amsterdam Zoo Artis, you can find a historical greenhouse. I took this beautiful girl there in order to do some collaborations. I loved the hat she brought to the scene and I just had to combine it with the bright harsh light in the background. What is she thinking about?

Luckily enough I had a small speed-light with me in order to give her face some filler light. We had a beautiful day and I most certainly was happy with the finished results. The upper picture has the interesting characteristic of having a total out of focus face, but it still looks okay. I am not sure why that is. Let me know what you think!

You can see how I edited this picture way below.

Awesome pictures, is a speed light different from a regular flash you usually have on cameras?

Haha nope! They are the same! But this one was an external on my camera since the Sony A7II doesn't have a builtin one!
