I'm wondering if the modeling light in 300pro and 100pro is powerful enough to fine tune the lighting and the pose before taking the shot.
Thanks for the lecture Sarah 🙂

[@vorpaledgephotography1697]

Now I want to experiment with feathering light on large groups.

[@tariqmohammadabdul4781]

Rushes? (referring to those dried flowers)

[@sarahedmunds]

Someone told me later it’s pampas! Haha thank you! 🙏🏻

[@JedCordwell]

I’m sorry. I don’t care for the virtual event space. I miss the days of live demos on the fly.

[@BandH]

Sorry to hear that. Follow our other social accounts for in store events when we do have them!

[@DeaqonJamesLV]

It's a lecture and there is still much to learn from what she's saying.

[@captaincook6283]

Honestly, I think that this lecture had only one aim and that is to show her work. In terms of teaching it is almost useless because it would’ve been better to choose two or three images and show us the exact workflow how to achieve that in detail instead of showing us hundreds of pictures and telling us this was one strobe this were two strobes this is the godox ad… blah blah blah blah not even giving us the diffuser which is apparently the only critical information in order to understand the light of a picture. Please invite teachers and not business self producers…

[@sarahedmunds]

Hi! If you check out Godox's youtube channel, I've done 8 tutorials so far showing very detailed breakdowns of image sets with behind the scenes and detailed lighting diagrams, camera settings, lighting power, lights used and diffusors. The diffusor is definitely not the only critical information to understand light. It's also important to understand where to place the light and why. Thank you for watching!
