I love how you really do explain what’s necessary to make your instructions useful. For example you are very detailed with using 2 full CTO gels for the sun shots. How far to place the light. … Most youtubers would just mention using a cto. Your videos are actually useful! Thank you, Vanessa!

This was beyond commenting anything … this should be officially recorded in high definition audio and made available on all platforms for ppl like us to learn and find peace. Amazing, no words at all. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

There's good thing about this woman photographer is that in the first part she's only using budget set up to show how simple OCF can change the image of a picture. I like it because she's unpretentious tutor, but down to earth. By the way, model looks super, that's an ice on the cake for this educational video. Good.

Thank you! No matter how experienced you are, there is always something new to be learned.

Excellent tutorial! I especially like that you are showing everyone that you don't need pro level camera body and lens to achieve excellent results (to some degree). I've been out of the game for a few years and your video is a great refresher.

Never used lighting but after seeing Vanessa explains, I definitely want to start using flash. Love her vibe and simple step by step walk through.

I have rediscovered my interest in flash photography after some years concentrating on landscape work. I found your video very instructive and easy to follow. You are clearly an experienced professional but you didn't talk down to us, or assume a level of technology or jargon that would be intimidating. Well done!

Thank you for your educational content. I'm digging through the back catalog going through all the speedlight and flash videos and I appreciate your teaching style. Much appreciated.

When she said subscribe and then adaroma tv poped up - that's when I realised that i was watching an adaroma tv video. Total fan @vanessa

The r5 with 85mm is really wow.

that would be one of the best tutorials I've seen. very helpful and inspirational. I've been scared of using off-camera flash because it's completely new to me, but I will give it a go now! Thank you!

Great tips. I have my first wedding in a couple weeks so these tips help a lot. Thank you.

I love her teaching style, and I learned a lot. Thank you!

Great video showing some very simple and inexpensive flash options. Thanks Vanessa!

I have really enjoyed this video! Lot of things to learn for a begginers, thank you!

That was the best video I have ever seen for on carmera and off camera flash - for the work I do. Very much appreciated and great presentation skills.

Wow thanks so much for this detailed video. I've found myself in those big rooms many times and tried to find something to bounce the flash off, love the fold out reflector you had there will try to find that for myself. Thanks again for a very informative video.

Wow I learned so much!!!❤

I love the way you explain.

I always learn something from your videos, even something subtle like how to shoot while holding a reflector or using gels. And seeing some of them again in a compilation is fine by me. Plus, it’s just so obvious that you and Julianna enjoy working together. I hope your move doesn’t end the two of you working together.

Thanks for this awesome video. It was such a nice change to watch a video without advertisements every 60 seconds too.

What an awesome video!!! I shoot weddings and honestly learned a good few things today, the fact that I'm in the UK with poop light means I will certainly be using some of your ideas. Thanks Vanessa :-)

Wow wow wow I have really learned a lot may God bless you

Really educational as always Vanessa! One question, when you’re using the CTO gels, what WB setting do you have in camera? I always use K mode and set up to 5500 if I’m using my flash. Thanks for sharing!

@VanessaJoy

Usually around 5800 for a little More warmth

Did you know you were going to be a good teacher/instructor? Great videos!

Great video : ) in the final shot, for the off camera flash, was it bounced off the walls ceiling?

Very interesting and informative. Is there any on-camera flash diffuser or mini soft box that you recommend? Thanks

Great tips thanks for sharing

I love ALL of this! What if you need a flash on camera AND off camera for the golden hour hack?

I really like my little T7. It's the camera I learned on. It has its limitations but if you can learn to shoot low light and off camera flash with it you can shoot with any other camera.

I have just started a steep learning curve, having bought my first speedlight godox 685ii, and now find I have to purchase a trigger if I want it to work off camera, as my nikon D5300 won't trigger it. Your video was very interesting and helpful, so thank you.

very nice video. I already saw lot of these but good to recap :-) Which umbrella diameter did you use from prophoto ? Do you prefer it to a softbox or just easier for traveling ? better to use a white surface in that case than a silver one, too harsh ?

@VanessaJoy

2 жыл бұрын

Easier for traveling and setup, and I think it’s the large size. I like the white so it doesn’t accentuate shine :)

R5, 85mm 1.2? life is rough hunh? lol haha nice gear!!! this is a good video, I wasnt entirely sure about the orange OCF at first but I can see how going this method would save ALOT of steps in post editing especially if importing to apply filters to a large group of photos at once if someone does that. I am going to have to watch this again later. thanks for the video!

Nice tips for any level photographers! Find the gear that’s best for you !!
