Before Buying a Umbrella/Diffuser- WATCH THIS!
Very sound advice. Photography is not about plumping your subject matter on the table and shoot away. Planning takes time, and time is what is needed to produce the best photo you can. Apart from music, I enjoyed landscape photography, and if you talk about time, next to animal photography, landscape photography can take on an agenizing wait for the best light and conditions. Unfortunately, health issues don't allow this anymore. So, I have to bring my photography indoors, for the most part. I can still indulge in a little street shooting, though. Past sports injuries are what is raising its ugly head right now. Bad knees. Oh, well, that's life. Good video. Much thanks.
That is such a nice job that you have. You could advertise yourself, "I Shoot for Food!" Maybe I could work as your assistant. No pay, just a free meal😂. You shoot food at your home studio with all of your equipment, so I'm surprised that you don't bring at least one light and some sort of reflector to fill in the shadows. But, then again you are using natural light through the store window. Do you feel that is enough, especially on really overcast days?
@@kelalamusic9258 I work normal morning and the light is perfect if photoshoot will be longer I have extra light with me and always take 5in1 reflector 😀
Did you have to pay for all that food to shoot? If so, I’m sure you didn’t try to eat it all. I’d have a big tummy ache after 🤢😂
I work with one company and photography for them restaurant, sandwich bar, coffee shops and I don't pay for food but sometimes the owner restaurant offer me the food after photoshoot.
@@fotoinshadows-foodphotography that's a nice arrangement. If they offer you the food, bring some friends and have a small feast. I'd join you but it's too far to go, unfortunately😢.
@ I always bring something to the home and have dinner with my partner 😀
@@fotoinshadows-foodphotography I can imagine how happy he is with that. I can hear him now . . . YUM!

Hello, Monika. I want to say thank you for sharing your immerse experience in product photography. I already subscribed to your channel and I'm learning with you a lot. Thanks again and I wish you much success in whatever you set out to do!
Thanks for subbing! 😊
Thank you for taking your time to show us how everything works and how you put your setup to make amazing photos so we can all learn in a way we can understand. You are awesome!
Glad it was helpful!
That’s a great idea for a table. You can just fold it all up and put it away. I like the idea of having shelves on the bottom so that you avoid clutter all over the place. I’ve never seen anything like it before. Where did you purchase them? Thank you.
Yes! Thank you! 😊 I bought in IKEA 😊
I feel so embarrassed 🙄😊. I was enjoying the video so much, I forgot what it said in the title. So sorry. 😔
@@kelalamusic9258 Haha, don’t worry at all! 😊 I often forget to read titles too when I’m really into a video. It happens to all of us! It’s totally okay to miss a few details when you're enjoying something. Thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comment!

Can i just get any white and black umbrella or it's a special type of umbrella?
You need special umbrella for photographer😀
If one day you know how to test a rack-and-pinion or geared ball joint, you'll see that it's the best for framing :) I've got this one, and it's super-practical in all situations. Benro GD3WH Tête 3 axes Reference: GD3WH
I must check this and maybe I'll buy it😀
Keep it up 😊
Yes I will
Thank you for always sharing great videos. In the country I live in, there aren’t many options, so I’m satisfied with IKEA for now. Recently, I’ve been practicing, but I’m not sure where to get ideas from. Images on platforms like Pinterest are often too difficult to replicate, and they usually involve a lot of dishes, which makes it challenging for someone like me working on a small scale at home. Do you have any recommendations for websites or methods that are suitable for beginners working on a smaller scale?
I'm glad to hear that my videos are helpful. I recommend Pinterest and in the search engine type in words like culinary photography but minimalist, I also recommend looking for an instagram account with minimalist photos and also browsing portfolios of other photographers🙂
Hello Madam I am a professional Digital Marketer and SEO Expert. I visited your TH-cam channel, Your content is excellent. But I found some problems in your channel, your videos are not SEO optimized, so your videos don't reach more viewers or get more views. Your video needs SEO optimization, it can easily get thousands of views on the video. I can help you grow your channel 100% organic and perfectly within a short period!!
How can I help you?
I am interested in solving the problems of your TH-cam channel?
@ Thank you but I don’t need a help 😊

Do you think mobile phone Samsung S24 Ultra would be good enough to get the same results? I can not afford camera and I just received this Samsung on very a special deal. It is the last version of Samsung if I am not wrong. I was trying to find video on your channel with some tips for product photography with mobile phone but couldn't find anything. You are very productive with your channel I have to admit. Hard worker! Great job!
If you know how to work with light and how to set your phone's parameters correctly, you can easily take good photos with such a phone and don't forget about processing in Photoshop, which is very important for these types of photos😀
Thank you for the video. What exactly is relabe(?) tape? Do you have a link for example?
This is very strong Tape-amzn.to/428FsvT

Photography and lighting do not need criticism, they need ideas and implementation \C/
I have the same softbox 120cm and 95cm. Quick fold softboxes price are usually 2-5x here in Philippines depending on brand so it's a great choice. I keep it assembled in my home studio. I also have 105cm reflective umbrella for on location shoot. The downside with umbrella is you cannot put grid on it for more light control but it's not a big deal when shooting outdoor.
Thank you for the information about the umbrella, I didn't know that you can't install a grid on it😀
The difference between a parabolic and regular umbrella is not that one is a shoot-through and the other is reflective. The difference is the shape, as the word parabolic describes.
That's an additional difference and I agree with you the shape, how they reflect light and how you can manipulate light with these two light modifiers.
Nice presentation
Thank you😀
I will never forget the time I struggled with the rods on a big softbox only to finish putting it together and found out that I had the mounting ring on backwards. That softbox now stays home fully assembled. Thank God for umbrella style softboxes.
@@dominicwroblewski5832 I use this Softbox now for recording my videos on TH-cam channel and I am glad I have umbrella and diffuser in my studio and use more easy in my food and products photography 😊
