Hey! Does it has English subtitle?

I just love how Justin manages to bring that "spark" into a portrait photo that elevates the model, creating indescribable depth and making the photo pop out among others. Justin, if you're reading this, you are truly a magnificent photographer with characteristics suitable for teaching as well. Excited to see where your journey leads you!

Great suggestion!

At the 3:16 mark, you mention that it was nearly impossible to capture a flattering image, but isn't that what ND filters/umbrellas/flash are for? I would have at the very least used an ND filter and a reflector (to place either overhead or reflect light back to the model). Either way, very nice video, great model!

@justinlaurens

Жыл бұрын

Yes all very good points, this shoot was a purely Outdoor Natural Lighting shoot, however, but yes you're right at least an ND filter would have been helpful.

She's absolutely amazing! I'm not sure if it's because of my Monitor (Eizo CS270, calibrated but not limited to sRGB), but the video footage looks very strange often times. I get weird colours in different areas of the frame. (e.g. her blue top at the beginning gets strange red and green blobs that look like colour noise or blown out highlights) In the old town area, her hair gets prominent green highlights and in the shadowy alley, the shadows get a strong tint of magenta AND cyan.. (again, looking like an iso 100'000 shot) and her top in the second to last setting (steps in front of the bank entrance) looks colourful even though it isn't in the photos. Is this an issue with the wide colour gamut of my monitor or artefacts from the video processing you used?

I HV a Question. I'm a Hobbyist. Want a good DSLR for both Photography n Videography. I'm confused between Canon 200d ii Vs FUJIFILM X-T200. 1) Photography : I'm sure 200d beats X-T200. Bcoz canon has very affordable Lenses like 50mm/f1.8 , 24mm/f2.8 etc. Fuji lenses are costly. Maybe bcoz they r better quality than canon. But As a Hobbyist I can't afford them. Lenses are equally important as body I feel. So I'm correct in point 1 ? 2) Videography : Is 4K of X-T200 so good in Autofocus n Quality that I should choose X-T200 over 200d mark ii ? Or 1080p of mark ii is decent enough ? Plz reply. 🙏🙏 🎉🎉

I stick to Sony for camera body and Sony + Sigma Art for lenses.

Magnifique modèle! J'aime beaucoup le Vieux-Montréal pour ses édifices iconiques, et l'édifice Aldred a une entrée et des portes d'ascenseurs somptueuses aussi. Maintenant, je trouve le traitement final trop saturé et trop contrasté, question de goût sans doute.

Good content as usual Justin. By the way, with the wonderful natural smile that the model has I don't understand why you didn't take advantage of any of these "in between" moments. All the final expressions, while beautiful, look very similar to me, and keeping some natural smile of her would have add some variety to the series (but hey, it's just my oppinion, no trolling here, i don't wat to sound rude at all!)

Watching this video without reading a single comment first and i had the exact same thoughts.. tbh, you already have his initials… JL… good examples for taking advantage of environments and doing full body, mid body, and close ups would be Jason Lanier. Manny Ortiz too.. and me ofcourse

Nice shoot man. Love the narration of your thought process and how you plan. Enjoy your style. But that music is a killer. It blasts way to loudly in between the narration. Extremely annoying. If you just have to have music to fill in the silence at least make it the same volume as your voice but preferably a little lower. You dont have to fill every moment with noise. Let your work speak....

juega muy poco con el entorno , con la calidad de entorno y cinematografia que puede salir ahi, solo se centra en la chica y al final parece mas de lo mismo , retratos editados de la misma forma con distintas poses, a mi como fotografa me gusta contar historias, hacer de la chica un personaje, crear una historia a base de escenas y sensaciones, a pesar de que tiene calidad como fotografo siento que hay que emplear mas creatividad y salir de la zona de confort para retarse a uno mismo.
