    I'm pretty sure your collection of stands is worth more than all of my gear combined lol.

      Karl Taylor OMG. U R really really good!This video is so amazing that I never thought that making a product image could be such complicated. U worked it perfectly and showed it specifically.The shooting skill of mine would be much improved by ur inspiration. Besides,I didn't have a favourite photographer before.And now u r the first one I'm looking up to.Thanks for ur tutorial~

    Watching you Karl is a pure pleasure. I'm aspiring product photographer and I truly wished I saw your tutorials before I started my experiments. I wish you much energy and hope to see more. Thank you.

    The DIY aspect of photography is something I think many are interested in as basicly no one who doesnt do it on a professional level owns the tools you do.

    • @lofihippie
      @lofihippie 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Bron makes good lights, but you don't need them for product photography. Power wise they're kind of overkill. You can do the same setup with speedlights and some snoots. All you really need is to DIY some vellum diffusers. Product shots are all about DIY.

      I completely agree. I was looking for a way to do this at home...i wasn't looking to completely rearrange my room with "million" dollar materials...

    Another perfect tutorial. The cost effects us all, but I came to watch the process and how nuances of light effects in such a setup and the execution was masterfully done, as expected from a professional. Keep it up Karl.

    @Javier_Hernandez 7 ปีที่แล้ว +52

    Great tutorial. Did you use thousands of dollars in gear? YES YOU DID. So what! You've worked hard to get where you are and these are the tools that help you get there. You started with a tiny studio and homemade snoots and rigs. After you perfect your craft and get better you acquire the better tools throughout the years. It happens to everyone. The fact that you go so detailed and insightful about what you do and how you do it speaks VOLUMES to your character and your selflessness to teach and educate others. I couldn't thank you enough for what you do !!!! Thank you Javier from Miami, FLorida
