Thank you for watching! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
In this flood of photos we have now, I really appreciate your work and contributions to photography 🙏❤️
Easy to use but very effective techniques. Simplicity is the key. You know how to use that very well. Your works are brilliant. I've learnt a lot since I started watching your tutorials. Thank You 👍
I jut picked up an 85mm lens yesterday and then this video drops. The universe is forever watching!

@@dominicpascal5512 google basically :D
I love this! It’s just what i’m looking for. Thanks, Julia!
Girl you have such an amazing channel and beautiful spirit. I have learned so much in such a short time because of your delivery, tone, energy, patience. I am a new subbie here and love this channel hands down my favorite 🥰
Julia just shows what an amazing photographer is
You're pictures are so dreamy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us 🥰. These are really good tips.
I love my 85, it's my favorite of all my lens, & this video is just what I needed, I feel that I shoot too close sometimes & forget that this lens will do a beautiful shot capturing the full body frames & the background. I need to grab a model & go out & practice. I'll probably watch this again & again .... loved it & subscribed to your channel. Thanks for the tips.
This video and the previous 35mm version are just pure gold. I think these are the best framing tutorials I’ve seen. Thanks!
where is the 35mm version of this? I'd really like to watch it!!
Thank you for your advices 😊❤️ I really appreciate what you are doing. Supporting beginners of their passion 😊❤️
This is so good! Would love to see a series like this! A 35mm composition tips next? 🤔😄
I love my 85mm for portraits. You get close and personal with the subjects. Great video tips!
So helpful!! Thanks for sharing Julia! I have the 85mm per your recommendation and am enjoying learning more about how to use it to its fullest potential!
Nice video ! Loved the tips and the used graphics. The sound design is really good too 😄 keep going 🔥
I always have such a tough time shooting portraits with my 85. I was just speaking with a friend about this very subject just the other day. Thank you for creating and uploading this video. It was super helpful. Now I wanna grab my 85 and go practice.
Yeah I was kinda the same, the 85 was my favourite lens for a while when I first got it then I lost interest in using it for a couple of years. Now I'm in love with it again and can't live without it hahah
Favorite tip: ask your subject to stand in the leaves so that it is more surrounded by the background. Thank you, great tips!
Sharing your thought process was super helpful! Thank you for the amazing videos.
Indeed the 85mm lens is perfect for portraits. Just enough closeness, intimacy with the subject, nice perspective and bokeh........ beautiful shots.
Yes yes yes! I love this video! Just started using foreground blur with trees plants and branches! Now I need an 85mm!
Love you and your videos. So much learning and inspiration. Thanks for that 👏🏼
Last one is the favorite one with the landscape fullbody photos♥️
This was so relaxing you are definitely a vibe ❤️
Thanks so much for another outstanding video on composition tips - it is so helpful !! So much inspiration across the video - I particularly like your simple but effective suggestion of leaving some space above the models head when shooting in portrait orientation but then cutting off some of the hair when shooting in landscape orientation; also leaving in the model's shoulders. I have watched the video a couple of times and keep picking up new ideas each time !! Many thanks again.
Thank you so much, I'm really glad you liked it!
Love the addition of a quick edit to the raw->preset view :)
yes i love these kind of videos. so many good tips. im planing on renting this lens to see if i should save up for one.
I been watching this video over and over. its so good. thank you for your info...
Thanks Julia for this tutorial. The fact that you’re getting these stunning images using natural light is in itself epic.
Please which transmitter are you using to share your view monitor as you shoot?
I'm still wondering this same thing, did you ever figure it out?
Such a good tip video. I also love shooting with this focal length so it was perfect.
your content is so amazing. i cannot get enough
Hi Julia ! 🤩 Thank you for one your best best videos because most of us shoot these shots at parties, weddings, birthdays, travel etc. I love my 85mm and you show us why. So good 👍🙏
Lol
I love the way you integrate nature to the portray. I some times hesitate to get my subjects surrounded by branches because it will be distracted, but the way you did the depth of field degradation of the 85 mm make me see other angle of the concept, thanks
Julia: Comment down which one your favorite.
Me: All, all of it is my favorite! 💖
One of your better videos on portrait photography with that lens. Great tips and examples. I wish you would leave the final photo up longer while you discuss why you did what you did, I have to keep replaying sections over so I can get a better understanding. I really liked this video. Thank you.
Love these types of videos! Thank you 😊
Nicely done and well-illustrated. Thanks.
Wow Julia. Thank you so much for this amazing Inspiration!!
The hero shot was my favorite! Thank you so much! :)
Such a great video!!!
Thanks, that was so helpful! I especially love the ones from 7:00 on with all the leaves around her face! Amazing model, als always :)
Brilliant tips, thanks for making this video!
Great tidbits!! Awesome job!
i love it! you're the best Julia
greetings from Colombia
Great photography tips! Also, the model is so beautiful!
I just love you video it's really helpful
Great shots!
these tips are incredible !!
Glad you like them!
Awesome suggestions!! thanks for the video. Very helpful!
Great tutorial !!!! Many thanks !!!
As always - great video!
More videos like this. I LOVE it! 🥰
Love the tips! Thx for the great video!
I love when you make videos like this! This helps me think of a different perspective so that my photos don't look the same on my feed 🤙🏽
using something as your foreground makes the image looks much better compared to other compositions
This is so helpful, have had an 85mm for quite a while now and I don't think getting the framing right with it had really clicked yet
Super useful tutorial. My full body landscape shots always feel a bit empty but I definitely got some new ideas.
Love it 🤩🤩
Really useful tips for 85mm outdoor photography. Thank you so much. All the best Julia madam 👍🌹
I love these shots 🔥 Super crisp ❤️
amazing tutorial, Julia!
That is a really tutorial. I learned a lot. Thanks
A composition tip I will definitely try to not be afraid to test out is the first tip to crop a portrait shot from the shoulders/hairline and leaving a bit of negative space at the top. My primary lens is a 24-70mm f/2.8 so I will use the 70 mm to get that background to foreground separation and bokeh 😍
Thank you very much! Very useful knowledge.
Always so interesting 🔥
You have a lovely manner when giving instructions. :)
The 35 + 85 combo is money!
I love the video's you make, explaining how to shoot a portrait. Do you ever do a shoot in an industrial environment instead of in park? I would like to see that some time.
Thank you! Yes my last composition tips on a 35mm was in a more industrial environment, I linked it in the description if you want to watch :D
Great video... I'll be putting some of of those tips into practice.
Hey Julia ... Super awesome tips, loved it to the max ... the 85 is my favourite along side the 24 (cos i dont have a 35 yet ) I am definitely using a few of these on Saturday fro my next shoot.
Great video! Love the 85gm. It's one of my favorite lenses I own. Wish Sony would do an update to it with the newer focusing technology they put in the new primes they're releasing.
i love the photos between the tree branches
Nicely done, as usual. 🥂
Lots of details.Thank you
Thanks a lot for such a great tutorial!
I seriously love your "hey everyone" intro. It's not a Julia Trotti video without it🤍
It's unique and I'm sure I'm not the only one that has thought it
Are... Are you saying that opening a video with "Hey everyone" is unique?
❤🎉muchas gracias. Excelente video 😊
JULIA I LOVEEE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I love my 85! Great video again, they literally do not come out quick enough for me 😂💛
so amazing tips, loved them all
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the tips.
Helpful tips. Thanks.
As always. Super inspiring 🙂
Thanks so much!
I struggle with my 85, and therefore almost never use it unless I need more reach during a wedding ceremony. I really should utilize it more often, so thank you for these tips. It's out of my comfort zone (I usually shoot with my 24 most of the time) but I'm going to give it a shot this weekend where I'm second shooting. I love your tips on the landscape shots since those can fall to the wayside as well when I do portraits. I always just found it easier to use my 24 and move my feet towards and away from my subjects, but an 85 gives that cool look I think I'm missing. Luckily there's a lot of space where I'll be so it'll be easier to achieve. This video came at the perfect time. Thanks, Julia! Also, Mathilda was fantastic. You pick the best models for these videos!
it's great class
The 35 and 85 are my go to lenses as well then the 70-200. I got rid of my nifty 50 as I hardly use it and in a pinch if I want that focal length while not using my 24-70 then I can just go into DX mode on my full frame with my 35 and basically get the same shot. Beautiful images btw
Love you and love your work so much ❤️
Thank you so much!
Your work looks sooooo much better with 85mm !
Just got the 85mm 1.8 lens and used it for my in laws high school graduation. From using the start kit 28-70mm to this lens, it makes a huge difference! I’m still learning about what to use different lenses for what. Your videos are so helpful!
Buy the 35mm next.
@@todddammit4628 Sony or sigma? Also 1.4 or 1.8? I’m still learning about differences lol
@@alexn.andradeIf you're mostly doing photos I'd get a 1.4, If you can afford the GM that's one of the best 35mm ever made (for any camera). Its not great for video though, so if you're planning on doing that, get the Sony 1.8. If you can't afford the GM but are still just doing photo, get the Sigma.
the natural light was so beautiful :") i will do some photo session next month, hopefully it wont be cloudy
Like Your tips with different lenses. I’ve tried to use some of them as inspiration! Subscribed ;)
Just bought an 85mm last week, nice timing!
Great.....Julia 👍
Mathilda killed it.
I love the tip about nestling subject i. Trees to get a variety of bokeh blur and sharp background the subject. Thats the tip i will definitely uses!
Your model is beaautiful
I watch your video's to see your smile ☺️
I love my 85mm 1.2. Best lens ever ! I’m waiting to get the nee RF 85 1.2
Beautiful and nice shoot with 85mm........................................
Everything looks good
I was JUST thinking about gettin Canva. Its a sign.
