Thank you 🙏

Really love those two shots you highlighted. I can't imagine trying to shoot while they're prepping and moving all of the plates away.

it can be hectic but its doable, you can see me doing it in the last part of this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oa2bq7l9maizgbQ.htmlsi=5jvDU9tBkEs-_IjO

Really like the vibe of these videos that are both entertaining and informing!

thanks man! don't know your story but these things take work, and if you are willing to grind for some time and passionate about it, you can make it.

Thank you for making this video and the other

My pleasure! there is another BTS from a bakery on the cnannel

I think a video of finding these clients would be more helpful, how to approach them, what to show them, how much to charge, how not to get cheated, etc etc

I already made a video on the topic: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oa2bq7l9maizgbQ.htmlsi=x-tDp8QQrK1FZwVu 😉

Great video as always Your first video on getting clients inspired me to actually go out and look for work and I actually got an offer to do an hybrid shoot for a small business BUT Possible dumb gear question here: I got a Canon 70D, not great for video, max 30fps at 1080p and none of my lenses have stabilization Should I just shoot the video with an iPhone 12 Pro or try it out with the camera instead?

@perhat22photo

Glad to hear you landed a client, congrats! I used to shoot with the 70d some years back, I would probably stick with the iphone for video, much easier to get stable usable clips and you can shoot in 4k 60. just do slow controlled movements, and maybe overshoot a bit just so you have more options in post. you got this!

Good video !

Hey bro good video. Why did you choose xh2s. Instead of Sony full frame..?

@perhat22photo

Ай бұрын

Thank you. I was already in the fuji ecosystem with the X-T3, but also I wanted to have 60fps 4k without a crop, so I could have the exact same framing for photo and video, and most sony cameras do not offer that (the a7siii does but its too low megapixels for photos for me, and the other ones that do are too expensive for me). I'm waiting for a decent FF camera that will give me 4k60 with no crop, dual card recording for photo and video, that wont break the bank, as I would love to move to full frame and thet the tamron 35-150

I'm wondering if i should sell my Viltrox 23mm f1.4 to buy a Tamron 17-70 for my XT4. I've been using prime lens since 2021, but very often i see that i need a zoom option to stop buying multiple lenses to the same camera and keep changing them many times in the job... But idk if the f2.8 aperture will make me upset to do night shoots

The immage quality on the tamron is much better than the viltrox 23. Virtually no cromatic aberation and better af. In my opinion if you cant have a ton of lenses the tamron is the bestthing you can get

Hi, I wanted to ask you a few questions, I have seen that in a day's shooting you do a lot of content that if managed well can cover several months, how often do you go to the client? Wouldn't it be better for you to do less content and go to the customer more often? Thank you very much, your videos are very interesting

@perhat22photo

Ай бұрын

depends, if the clients are close to me I might do more smaller shoots, but some clients like this one are quite a drive for me (about an hour drive each way, I also have others where it's about a 2 hour drive), so going once every month and a half to maybe two is easier for me. Also creating more content in a single shoot is easier for the clients as they don't have to acomodate me shooting, and the bit of extra time it takes for the plates to reach the guests. But yeah in the past I had clients that much closer to home, where I would just charge a flat fee every month and stop by more often for smaller shoots. But yeah I guess if I was trying to really maximise profit I would deliver way less and make them "need" me more. You can also have the approach of charging after the shoot, and doing it on the amount of content you end up creating, instead of outlining it all beforehand, especially because these types of shoots (if they are not making food specifically for you to shoot) can be unpredictable, and you can't be exactly sure how much you will deliver. damn, sorry for the long reply 😅

Hey, love the video! Fantastic stuff mate! Do you have a pricing guide for what you charge clients? I’m starting to get into product photography and finding it difficult to know what to charge. Thanks!

@perhat22photo

I don't really have one, it can vary depending on clients and shoot types. I never really shoot products so no idea what I would price it.

Hi, did you shoot those panning shots with stabalization on? And what flash are you using?

@perhat22photo

Ай бұрын

Which shots do you mean? basically everything was shot with IBIS+OIS on, some shots were taken on the X-T3 with the gymbal. The flash is an extremely cheap MEIKE with some cheap Godox 2.4ghz triggers

​@@perhat22photo i was wondering particularly for the handheld shots. As there were some feedback from people saying, if ibis and ois is turned on, video footage would have some warping on the xh2s. I just bought my xh2s! Thanks for the video dude, your work is amazing! Its giving me the motivation to go out and start food videography! Cheers!

@perhat22photo

Ай бұрын

@@timbuttpoo2129 thanks for the kind words 🙏 I don't see much warping on the x-h2s from my use, but the ibis can be a bit sticky sometimes. in 90% of cases stabilisation in final cut pro fixes it and makes it really smooth (60fps, and higher shutterspeed for less motion blur helps stabilisation work better from my experience). Even with the ibis not being perfect its better than not having it as it cleans up micro jitters a lot. also for these movements swaying on the hips and moving your entire body with arms locked makes it much smoother. on this shoot I also had a side handle on my camera cage to help with stabilisation.

how much do you charge for session like this ?

@perhat22photo

Ай бұрын

It depends on the session, anywhere between 300 and 600€, but it really depends on the client and location. In other cities you might be able to charge much more or less depending on the market and standard of living.

Who else feels encouraged to explore further?
