Thanks for taking the time to show all these lights set up, I can’t imagine all the time you have put into this project 😊. I am excited to get in to my garage studio and put these to the test.I am a godox all the way, with over 20 godox lights. lol
Answering to your query about being given equipment settings and not understanding: I've never been to a workshop (could never afford one). I'm saving up for next year Peter Coulson, maybe, if he comes to Europe again...
Hi! When I started, I joined a local web network of photographers and models and offered to shoot TFP (time for print/photos aka no-one gets paid). I still do it, in fact I’m lining up a TF creative shoot for next month as we speak. I never practice on paying clients ;-) Thanks for watching and commenting
OMG Is this about lighting of post editing, no skin tones, dodging and burning beyond believe, etc. Don't expect this kind of photography when you buy these lights
This was disappointing, why. Why you might ask? Explaining, her camera settings and who cares about the promo for good. How much does godox pay influencers. Leaving out the camera settings and the reasons why is cowardest in its most narcissistic element.
You missed the point. It is about lightening set up possibilities. Not how to memorize what settings to use on your prime 1.8 or 2.8 or zoom F4. You don't have her equipment and you don't want to recreate her exact image. Her examples are for ideas. You have to take the ideas and recreate your own images.
I wish photographers stopped promoting a very unnecessary and very expensive f/1.2 and f/1.4 lenses ESPECIALLY when shooting in studio (!!!!). I can get (and getting) amazing results with a kit 5.6 zoom lens indoors and outdoors. At least we see You tubers doing away with promoting (ludicrously) expensive Profoto lights, already a good step.
You’re absolutely right - if shooting in the studio a kit lens is fine to start out with! I did it that way too. Then I bought a 120 USD “nifty fifty” and shot my first wedding with it. As a professional though, good glass is everything. I totally recommend learning how to use the gear before spending big money on the best lenses and equipment. 🎉❤
@@sarahedmunds Good lenses are nice, I agree but not everything. like many, in the beginning, when I started getting more weddings, I went and bought the full set (useless and expensive, in my opinion) of the f/2.8 lenses (17-35, 35-70 and the 70-200) I also of course had the 24mm f/1.8, the 50m f/1.8, the 85 f/1.8, a macro lens a second hand 180mm f/2.7. I killed my back carrying 8 lenses, two D3 bodies and four speedlights, not to mention batteries and all the rest. Not to mention that changing lenses mid event was a nightmare. After a while, good friends of mine and an amazing photographer told me to sell all my zoom lenses, buy one good versatile zoom lens and keep one prime. So I bought the 24-120 f/4 and kept my 85mm f/1.8. I can't even describe the joy I had. I always carried two bodies of course, and each had a lens on it. No more changing lenses, and at least 7kg less in my bag. I also moved from the heavy D3 to the D700's and life was great. With a help from this friend I realized that getting great shots was NOT about the gear of course. Besides the human touch and the chemistry, it's about finding the right spot, shed a decent light and communicate with the people in front of you. All the rest is just aiming to empty your bank account. I have not shot wedding for a few years now. Being in my 60's and losing this friend to cancer I now shoot families, some corporate headshots and children. I still have six lenses but still use the 24-200 about 90% of the time. I can get amazing portraits with the 24-200 in just about any condition. Cheers and keep up the great work!

How do you practice with lighting - "Hiring a Model?????"

It isn't the lights, it is the photographer and her obvious skill with using them to the best of her ability
@@itaylorm it's horrible
@@itaylorm photography means writing with light.. 25 years of model editing here but this is overdone .
@@RS-Amsterdam 45 years of photography including model editing here too. We will have to agree to disagree
@@RS-Amsterdam 45 years of model editing not that time makes any difference. We will have to agree to disagree
Sorry probably a great video but the wobbly audio is distracting 😕
