The hybrid method did bring out a lot more detail and crispness to the kitchen. Great combo of the technics.

Hi Mike - nice vid as always. When I started out five or six years ago, I did HDR interiors all the time, but I always thought they looked too cartoonish. For the past few years I've been using flamient exclusively for interiors. I toyed around with the HDR/Flamient combo method, but found it to be way too time consuming and the cost in time was not worth the marginally better result. My experience has been that agents couldn't care less as long as the shots look good and for me the quickest way to great results is a single ambient shot with one or two flash shots and a window pull only if the exterior is interesting.

Nice video. I've been shooting my real estate interiors this way for a very long time and I use 2 speed lights, one on camera and one off. I found this to be much more easier, especially in post compared to how you would shoot a flambient and ambient from one of your other videos. Good tip about layer mask for lightening and darkening, especially for the window pull. I actually like to leave a hint of yellow and orange hue to add some warmth. I think your tutorial shot here was pretty good. The foreground cabinets to the right are too bright and white for me. I will take a shot with a lower exposure to make those less pronounced and blend it in so my eye is led to the back of the room.

Thank you! In my opinion, the hybrid image is much, much better. This process is very suitable for my real estate photography.

22%’r! I have considered this method using an HDR app. Glad you took us through the steps. My wife ( the agent) thinks I take to many pics already. Going to do some test though, the results look awesome. 👍

Never have wee seen a real estate photographer shoot a video in a home that people with 10 kids and 5 dogs live in. 60% of the 400 homes we shoot a year are lived in and come with all the ups and downs.

Amazing. Thanks for sharing!!! Greetings from Argentina.

I have done HDR and flambient separately, but I am definitely stronger at my HDR game. I think I’ll pack my flash for my next shoot and grab a flash shot on top of the brackets and give this a try! Thanks Mike!

thank you for your videos, a lot of info for free, I cant believe it

First, thank you for your effort and advise. I think you perceived the wood floor more vibrant due to the limited dynamic range in the flambient composed picture--as transition between light and dark tones is more drastic/faster. If one looks at the HDR pictures, it shows a more natural flow between dark and lighter areas of the picture than in the flambiant picture. This is really evident in darker shadows of the flambient picture, by showing a less dynamic range. It is a trick on our eyes. I realized this when did my own comparisons, but doing an HDR with a 9EVs and comparing it to a single shot. Your flambient composure only benefits in the areas where the flash was used to light up areas, but the un-flashed areas remained the same in all of your shots of the flambient composure.

Super helpful! Thank you so much!

Best real estate tutorials!

Great video Mike. Thank you. So you do this for each individual shot you take of interiors of the houses, definitely time consuming. What do your photo packages and prices look like for realtors? The time it takes to travel to shoot, edit on post should be portrayed in prices but not sure what pricing would look like in 2021. Any tips would be great!

Great video Mike! I'm all about this hybrid technique. I'm really impressed with just how good a result you can get just with exposure blending with the bracketed shots (and I like that you did a good looking one for the sake of showing a strong comparison), but you can't beat the extra colour accuracy and even lighting that you get from incorporating flash.

@InsideRealEstatePhotography

It definitely adds a bit of time to the processing end of things.

The HDR has more natural shadows but lacks the crispness of flambient. I would have brushed in more ambient into the flash shots. The shadows under the cabinets and the big hot spot on the ceiling need correcting. Also, with orange shadows, I often use a new layer set to color mode and brush in the adjacent color to correct the area. Often times it takes some selecting with the lasso, bit works well. I do appreciate the video and I have subscribed.

Hi, great video you have there. Will you be able to share, how will you adjust the white balance if the room has tungsten lights and using flash frame? I am thinking the white balance will be tricky to adjust and using the 3 base bracketed shots to compose in post. Will you use auto white balance?

@InsideRealEstatePhotography

Жыл бұрын

Yeah I use auto white balance. The bracket shots become the ambient shot so that gets set to luminosity mode when blending with the flash shot so you aren’t using any color information from the brackets. The color will be coming from the flash frame.

I love your videos and appreciate you sharing your techniques with all of us. Thank you! Just a small critique/observation - well not even a critique but just wondering - both of your flash images (and I noticed this in some of your other videos as well) seem overexposed in some spots to the point you lose detail. For example if you look at the trim around the window you can see in the HDR image clearly the detail in the trim but in both flash images you can't. Is that just your style of having a nice bright white image so a little bit of overexposure is fine with you, or it could be KZread compression? I think the images you produce look wonderful from a consumer perspective but just curios from a technical perspective maybe I obsess too much over having some parts of my images overexposed a bit.

@InsideRealEstatePhotography

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Flash images are naturally going to have hot spots in this type of scenario when you’re bouncing off the ceiling. I’ll have to look back at the trim around the window. Maybe I let that go a bit too much but the beauty of it is that you have full control how much you blend it together and maybe I over blended that area.

Loved the content as usual and I may try the HDR/Flambient technique on my next shoot but the #1 thing I picked up from this one was assigning two of my custom buttons on my camera to easily switch between single frame shooting and bracketing. Custom button #3 is for my RES Video now. Don't know why I never thought of doing that before but thank you! Different subject....would you comment on the use of shooting with a gray card? I suppose the flash shot should negate the need for one but there have been times that I wish I had used it.

@InsideRealEstatePhotography

3 жыл бұрын

I’ve never bothered using one simply because for the ambient shots you are going to have mixed lighting no matter what so even if you have correct white balance for the interior lighting you will have exterior sunlight coming in that’s another temperature. In other words, even if you used a gray card you would still be dealing with color casts in editing. Also, you may have mixed lighting going on inside the home as well.

I like HDR=Flambient, that's how I shoot interiors. Also, thanks for a couple of editing shortcuts.

Great video! Do you remember the approximate color temp of the light bulbs in that kitchen? It looks pretty close to daylight from the screen recording you did on your camera. I find on most of my shoots, that the light coming in from the windows has a drastically cooler temperature than the lighting in the house and I have to spend a lot of time fixing that. I also have to spend a lot of time fixing the colors of different lightbulbs in the house. Do you run into the same problem on an everyday shoot or is there some kind of hack for that?

Yeah definitely always battling that kind of stuff especially with HDR shooting. Using a flash can definitely help eliminate a lot of those problems.

Mike nice comparison and perfect timing for me to come across this video. Just yesterday I was working on this technique for a 360 image. I was using a DSLR with 8mm fisheye manual lens, 5 brackets for hdr shot, the single flash. My approach was to allow for either LR hdr processing (or PS) and then to add in the flash process. Two things - I was having a difficult time getting the flash to sync with the manual lens. But and in relation to your video, I just was allowing the HDR process workflow to be automated by LR. This really speeds up the workflow. And alternatively, the 5d mark iv (I was using an 80d crop sensor with the fisheye) would allow in camera hdr and the result would be 1 hdr image and 1 or more flash shots. What do you think of this workflow, for regular RE shots as well as for the 360 shots. By the way, I processed the hdr and pano in ptgui to get an even shorter workflow. Unfortunately it created lots of noise. Still trying to figure this one out. Thanks for the video.

Yep, all 3 look good. The HDR has clean and/or 'sterile' look, which is fine. However, comma, I tend toward the Flambient & the Hybrid because they have a "family-home" warmth feel. The Hybrid appears to have a bit of flash showing/presence in the upper left ceiling, which of course would be an easy adjustment while doing the Hybrid processing ... but, as you say ... the client will not be comparing these side by side. SOOOOOOOOOOO, Mr. Mike, the defining question as to going with the Flambient or the Hybrid (in this example) is: Which one is the quickest to process ... the Flambient or the Hybrid? That would make my decision on which one to do and to deliver. Great stuff, Mike ... as always. Cheers, Chuck (N.E. Florida) : +)

Fast forward 30+ years and now shoot my own real estate photography and for select clients. For years I did flambient and I feel the results are usually much better. But over the years I have gone from shooting flambient to now doing straight HDR and outsourcing the edit. I guess for me when you think about having 40 shots and you spend an average editing time of 7 minutes per shot that is 280 minutes or 4 hrs and 40 minutes. So I have not found it cost-effective to do flambient for anything I charge for. And reserve flambient for higher-end homes. Just wondering your thoughts on that?

How to hand blend when window mask has many white grills ..

The condensation / window issue could've been greatly toned down with a brush in Lightroom - strong dehaze, strong decontrast, and then compensating the resulting brightness with shadows and highlights, even the exposure setting as a whole. I've had to do something similar with huge greasy window panels on a hotel, and also did a rookie mistake of putting a polarizing filter on my lens while the panels had polarization of their own - huge dark grid-like patterns across the blue sky exterior. Managed to make it look good with the above method though it was a hard lesson.
