Wow Neil ! You are my absolute favourite photographer to follow ! You have taught me so much ! I would really like to understand how you edit the photos you took at sunset to get them so dark ( like in the grass , but keep your faces and highlights so perfectly lit ) . When you show the lighting as you took the shot to how its edited is absolutely amazing ! You took a very attractive couple and made them even more incredible!

First time commenting, thank you for sharing a bit of your artistic skill. I also own the Helios 44-2. Was going to sell it as I don't use it much. However after you explaining it is great for low sunset shots to get the lens flare for some artistic shots. I will now try this on Sunday. Thank you

My pleasure Ciaran! Yes, the Helios is a lens I rarely use but when the situation is right (low sun so the light isn't too harsh) I love the flare it produces. I hope you enjoy trying it out!

Truly a great work and wonderful pictures. But the way you showed us how exactly you took the shots plus the pre- and post processioning results is setting you apart from the rest.. please keep up the good work. And thanks to Saby & Dav for their approval and cooperation

Have you ever used a Fuji x100 Neil? It’s a 35mm equivalent, flares like anything and has a leaf shutter, so you can sink flash up to 1/1000. It’s become my go to camera for portraits at weddings!

Do you have a recommendation for teaching ne about settings for off camera flash? Like I can never get the lights to work, sometimes I'll get lucky and the settings for the trigger and the light will be ok, but usually I'm lost with channels, and modes...I've been putting off learning about this but I cant grow my business until I get this down.

Hi Genni, there are some videos on my channel which may help? I also run off camera flash workshops in the UK where I teach exactly how I approach off camera flash shops. There may also be videos on KZread which show how to start with OCF? I agree though, knowing how to use OCF can really help you stand out as a photographer

Can you do a video on how add orange or red color on your pictures pls

Hi Jon! Yes and no, on the Sony you can shot at a particular value above whatever the auto white balance is, so I do that. So it's like auto balance plus 1k Kelvin or thereabouts. I have only just started doing this after being shown how to by the awesome David Stubbs!

Hi Steve, if you go to the WB settings and select AWB, you should see a chart appear (you do on the A9 with the latest firmware), if you select click right a few times you can choose a value of Kelvin either above or below the AWB. As I say the thanks to knowing about this go to David Stubbs who told me about this!
