How To Use 1 Strobe Lights To Improve Your Prom Photography | Day Time & Night Time | - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
3:34 A ND FILTER ISN'T A NEED! You can 100% increase your shutter to 1/1000 or higher to achieve a darker background. I just chose not to here.
What are the benefits of using an ND filter vs increasing the shutter speed?
@@jenniealvarado-gonzalez9736 I would say ND filter is better on harsh light. However, most newer cameras go to at least a shutter of 1/8000 which is pretty dark. I don't even use mine anymore unless im not using flash.
also to mention if your flash has high speed sync u can go above the 1/200 shutter without the blackout blowing the flash to keep up with the shutter
@@jenniealvarado-gonzalez9736 High shutter speed requires high-speed sync, which reduces the effective power of the flash by a lot. Using the ND filter allows the use of the flash at its full power.
Actually, that was an excellent idea, especially if you can't find a trigger compatible with your camera brand like my case hhh. The ND filter will help you stick to the flash sync limit of the camera. Keep up the good work.
Just a little advice, I see so many photographers dogging the heck out of their speedlites / flashes; especially, when seeing Photoshoots with these lights setup beyond 10 feet of their subjects. Moreover, that concept would be easier at night --- but. using these speed lights, with light boxes --- with bevels in outdoor daylight, will certainly dog the heck out of any flash accessory under 200 Watt seconds. My recommendation Is if you're going to use 200 Watt seconds or less, I would use umbrella modifiers, regular silver and a soft silver, which is closer to mimicking translucent light boxes... Anyway, just a little tidbit, Continue success!
Great job with the daylight video, but the night one can use some work. It is never appealing to have complete darkness behind the subject, especially when you have all those beautiful lights coming from behind in the buildings. The solution would have been to slow down the shutter, increase the iso to somewhere between 800-1600 to allow enough ambient to come in and shoot at f2.8 to get some nice bokeh. With your flash on and lens stabilization, you can probably get away with 1/30s. Otherwise, great work.
Yeah I spoke about lowering the shutter at 6:51. I didn’t do it personally because I knew I was going to adjust the background in post. The ones I showed were all raw photos. I’ve never tried that way though, next time I’m testing outdoor night time I definitely will. See which is more convenient. Thank you🙏🏾
I definitely would shoot night a little differently at f4 by upping my ISO to like 800 and shutter speed at maybe 1/60 and start there. Good video bro, these are nice clear narrations for beginners. My pockets would have a heart attack if my strobes blew over (Profoto for the max wins) ctfu
I 100% agree, just recently did a night shoot lowering my shutter and upping my iso, way better than editing in post. And mannnn Profoto too expensive for me😂😂
Great video, i didnt read comments so someone may have already mentioned. The more you properly compose your photo in camera, the less you have to do in post. Keep shooting! 👍🏿
awesome work! I enjoy your videos
Love the content
Great video gang you helped me out alot
I love it bro keep working ❤❤
Need more prom shoots
The thumbnail hook got me 🤣🤣. I don't even do photography but had to watch after it started falling 🤣. Good video bro!
This is my exact setup for Prom outdoors, the only difference is I shoot Nikon, particularly the Nikon D4S and D700 for portraits! The AD200 is one of my go-to lights,and is all that I need most of the time. Because of Prom, I've found that I really like night portraits. I've shot other portraiture at night, but not as much as prom, and I've been getting results that my clients really love. Great video!
Thank you for explaining this. I got this entire set up 4 years ago and only used it once.
You make it sound so easy, so I’ll def get back into it and try it again.
🫡🫡
Thanks a ton
Nice video! I normally don't use a modifier on this flash in the day time if I'm not close to a building or something because the light spill doesn't matter. If I do use a modifier I use a grid.
I'll check that out one of these days when I'm doing test shots. Never used a grid outdoor.
@@DTVprods. No doubt, I only use the grid if I don't want the light to spill on something they are standing next to. I got it from Pye. A really good photographer and pretty known.
Great vid bro 🔥
I like your video.. but you should usually photograph with the shadow side to you as it’s more dramatic and slimming . But of course its all about the final effect
I need the whole light setup asap
Just so you know I think the sync speed for the A1 is 1/400 so you can up your SS w/o going into HSS..you may check that though I'm not 100%
do you use the same presets for prom photos?
Last year during a shoot during the last 30 min of the shoot the wind blew my strobe and it fell and my speedlite broke. I told the client let’s just use the sunlight😭. I knew right after that, that sandbags are absolutely needed for outdoor shoots. 😅
Great content. Question? For the brother in the suit, was the light hitting him? It looked to be taller than he was. Could you have angled your AD 200 down towards him or lowered the stand itself?
I would've but its probably the look he was going for tbh
That’s probably what I could have done. I usually keep my lights at that height, but the power from the Ad200 wasn’t doing much. Ad600 would have definitely shown more. But I have it at the same height in the night time version.
@@CufNs1Yeah that was the look, typically go a foot or so taller than my client, gives off a very nice “sunlight” effect.
Why is your light at 90 degrees
Shooting mid day you don’t really need modifier on your lights
A hard light would match the intensity of the sun
HSS is great for mmid day
The night shots were too dark.
Your light is a good budget light to start with
When you dart charging clients the equipment needs to get better.
I am a big profoto fan, they just work.
Good luck
EWR
get a hair light
Hmmm , I'll have to look into that. I've never used one.
Could you talk any FASTER?? Slow down bro.
Listen faster😉…
@@DTVprods.For real .
Bro talk way too much
