  • We take a look at how to do a Corporate Portrait on location. So let's take a look at Lens Choice, Camera Settings, Print Surface and Lighting for a Corporate Portrait on Location. Special thanks to Saal Digital that's sponsoring this segment of The Slanted Lens. We're really excited to be here. And the Anderson Ballard Companies is allowing us to photograph each of them. Then we're going to give them a beautiful print when we're done.
    SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR SAAL DIGITAL!

    Great content! Your HSS video helped me to create a wonderful portrait of my grandsons and their friends in their backyard! Next week, I have a small company headshot session -- 3 people (individually and a group) and they want it outdoors. Again, you've given me the techniques to use to make this a successful session. Question: I was going to rent a 70-200mm lens. Will that work for me? I only own an 85mm and a 24-70mm presently. Again, thank you!

    this is gold thank you, just one thing I find myself having to shoot wider or 1:1 frame because on the website the frame can be a circle and they need more background space.

    @ 7:10 for Hanna's shots , don't you turn ladies' body away from light and face towards it to slim them while males you hit them square with main light?

  • @JJJ-014
    @JJJ-014 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video as always. I am wondering though, how many images do you take of each subject? Do you have a number in your mind you shoot to or does it depend on each individual as to how quickly you get "the one"?

    • @TheSlantedLens
      @TheSlantedLens  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I would say we shoot between 30-50 shots per person.

    Your outdoor shoots are always interesting and instructional, Thanks for sharing this portrait outing. At 8:14 you said, I always tell students when I'm working with groups if you can touch your light it’s in the wrong place. Not sure what you mean by "working with groups" since this is a shoot for individual portraits. Maybe you simply mean "for an interesting and flattering light, if you can touch your light it’s in the wrong place. Is that it? Thanks.

    • @TheSlantedLens
      @TheSlantedLens  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I was referring to the group of students. And yes, if you put the light off to the side it is more interesting and flattering.

    I like this outdoor portrait. How do you ensure that the images are reproducible? If there are new employees, they should look the same.

    • @TheSlantedLens
      @TheSlantedLens  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That is a good point. This one would be unless the company moves. A good thing to consider when doing company portraits.

    Great information! Waiting on my FJ400’s now. Looks like I might need a 3rd one at some point. Do you reach out to companies for their business or are you in a position where they are coming to you?

    I like the way you broke up the background. It would have been quite distracting with a solid white wall behind, the way you've done it doesn't even show.
