One question. Do you use AWB?

No I usually either use flash or custom when I’m shooting with strobes.
This is a great video
Thank you!
Great Video
Thanks!
Thanks yo 💪🏽💪🏽💯💯💯
No problem
Hey Matt, great tips about being ready for the real laughs and the ND filter vs HSS. I am curious if the Z9 which doesn’t have a mechanical shutter has the same issues. I will give it a try.
I think they all do at this point
Hey Matt,Just came across your channel, love the vids... Really interested in doing dramatic sports photography, lot of schools and sports in my area. Any vids on packages and pricing? Thanks
No I don’t have any on that. Those types of topics would be more of a mentoring or workshop topic. I mainly cover shooting and editing on here. Thank you!
Awesome video! Any way to achieve this with one strobe light? If not, I guess I’ll be investing in another!
Yes! You can just use the main light and use the sun as a rim. Thank you!
Good tutorial. Was this a two or three light setup?
Thanks! I was just the two I showed…Octa L for the key and deep focus for rim to mimic sun
Hey Matt… great video! Can you tell me exactly what ND filter you’re using here? Variable or fixed stop? How many stops? Thanks very much.
I think that was a breakthrough photography. ND. I use the 6 stop when it’s super bright.
Great content as always Matt! So reflections in glasses...how often do you find yourself editing out modifier reflections? While present, it's not a real big issue here but got me thinking. I'm finding (mainly in baseball portraits at the high school level) that the modifier reflections drive me bonkers. Athletes want to wear their shades (mainly baseball) so I typically do one with, one without. Even when I have them put the sunglasses up on their hat (not the best location by the way) the reflections are too distracting for my OCD brain, lol. I see myself, gear, parking lot, other players, etc so I end up editing it all out. Any rule of thumb you subscribe to avoid this? I'm guessing it's more subjective but wanted your thoughts. Thanks!
Thank you! Honestly I just go shot by shot. It didn’t bother me on this one at all. It usually doesn’t to be honest. You can always try and move the modifier around some to change it but I don’t think it a big deal usually.
I was about to comment and ask Matt his thoughts on this too.
Use a pro light mod, so the reflection, looks as it's coming from stadium lighting 🙏🏿💪🏿🤷🏿
Great video as always. You mentioned the brand ND filter, but what level ND filter do you often use for this?
Thanks! It was a 3 stop.
Hey Matt!
Which ND filter did you purchase? The X2 or X4? And which stop: 3 or 6?
I have the X2 3 stop and X4 6 stop
Great video Matt! I have a question, what's the metering mode you use for this kind of photo? Thanks
I usually so multi metering to get the overall exposure of the entire frame. Thanks for watching and the feedback!
Which ND filter do you prefer. 3-4-5-6 stop
I prefer a variable ND, 3-6. But if I had to pick one and couldn’t get a variable I’d get a 3 stop probably.
hey matt would u recommend me to use TTL or manual? im quite to photography and flash photography. I have a canon 700d and just bought a GODOX AD200.
i have the ad200 just alone.
I don’t think I’ve ever used TTL in my life 🤣
Thank you… where do you get them boxes from… can you link that please
Here you go! amzn.to/463P4Hv
@@MattHernandez Thank you... I truly appreciate your
What do you use to power your strobes outdoors?
The FJ400s have built in batteries!
Would you be able to achieve this same look using the neewer 4 strobes with soft boxes?
I’m not familiar with those but it depends on the power of them and the modifiers you use. These were Westcott FJ400s (400ws).
Should be able to, I do it with the neewer 200 watt light just not at high noon😊.
What metering mode do you use?
Either spot or matrix depending on the situation.
Would a 300W strobe work?
Maybe depending on your modifier. You’ll have to experiment with it. There will be limitations with less power
mention product links you used in this video please
Done!
Shot my Little League team… They came out beautiful! How do I share the result with you?
Awesome! If you are interested in one on one mentoring let me know!
I might take you up on that. My first time using this technique, first is unedited, second I threw my touch on it.
I have a question.
Is it possible to take the same photo but directing the light so that it doesn't reflect on their glasses?
I apologize if English is not perfect, but it is not my first language.
It would be easier to do that with 1 subject but with 2 the angles aren't the same. I personally like the reflection but you would have to play with it to see. Normally moving the light higher works but not when they have a hat on. Thanks for watching and the feedback!
Hss lighting ??
Yes!
Dude you look very athletic, the Boys should have photographed YOU
Hahahaha don’t let looks deceive you 🤣 I assure you any athletic success my son has will be in spite of me not because of me. I do work out regularly so I appreciate that thank you!
Is that your little guy? He is growing up
Yes he is! That’s my son and step son yes.
flash Photography at daylight is so 90's 🤣
At daylight? Are you talking about white balance?
90s trends are making a comeback
Photography is sooooo 1830’s.
You brought in way too much additional, technical information for me to follow. Sorry... I just mean this to be some helpful feedback.
Well, I’m sorry to hear that. I like to explain as much as I can for people because everyone has different levels of knowledge and different skill levels. I hope you got at least something small out of it.
