Lindsay-Not only are you an outstanding photographer-you’re a superb teacher. It’s enormously helpful to hear what your initial plan was for a shoot…then why and how it changed. It’s also great to hear about the paths not taken (i.e. why you didn’t use a fixed prime), and to see the comparison of rejected shots, and the specifics of why they didn’t make your final cut. More than any other instructor I know, you make the viewer feel as if she/he is inside the mind of the photographer throughout and after a session. Thank you.

Always love a good lighting breakdown, but my favorite part of this video is when you walk through your thought process while you’re shooting. I find that if my light is looking good but I’m not getting the shot I want, that I start to panic instead of think creatively! This is a good reminder to experiment with the other elements in a photo and not just the light.

Masterpiece, sometimes less is better. Sometimes one light source speaks more volume in an image with well defined highlights and shadows.

from Colorado! Hey Lindsay! Great lesson. And as others have pointed out, the explanation of the thought process gives me food for thought for my next shoot. I never considered "leading lines" for a portrait using hands and arms to lead to the face or as you called it a circular path giving the image motion or leading the eye through the portrait. Something I thought was interesting is how people will see differently. When you talked about what you see first, for me it was the spot on the glove. I instantly picked that up. Then my eyes were drawn to the scar then skin imperfections on the face, the headpiece was last actually... maybe I need to rethink a few things. Something I didn't pick up on until you showed before and after was the liquify adjustment to the arm and your hair "fix" wasn't that I thought you would do. All in all very educational especially the culling process while you talked your way through that. Makes me feel a bit better knowing it's normal to have several frames before you find the one. Thank you so much for sharing your process. All the best, Todd (from CO, LOL)

Hi Lindsey, another fantastic video, I really appreciate how honest and open you are about how you achieve your results it’s very refreshing. I noticed you are using the R5 which I have just moved to from my 5D Mark 3. I assume you are using the face/eye tracking mode so I wondered if you’d consider sharing your settings at some point as I am having to do battle with the AF cluster points jumping away from the face/eye after each shot . Keep up the great work!

very nice tuto. Do you have tutos or courses about clamshell portrait with a beauty dish (or a 90cm parabolic) on top and something else on bottom ? On bottom, Scott kelby is using a square softbox, many people use westcott eyelighter 2 (could be tedious to assemble on site), other people use an umbrella oriented to the top, other a parabolic 65cm softbox and, recently, i was surprised Manny Ortiz is using a 30x120cm westcott stripbox which looks very nice idea too.

Hi lindsay thank you for the video. I have a question about the soft box. I can afford one atm so which size do you think is the most versatile and most useful? I already have a simple 60×60 square softbox (not umbrella) but I don't know if it's good enough. Thank you.

I mean it doesn't really work like that. You should check out my lindsayadler.photo/msl class to see how modifier, distance, watts, etc all effect it. My 1000 watt my starting place is 6 if at iso 200... but its really not how it works.

Just curious, why shoot at ISO 200? I notice that a lot of photographers do that when shooting with a studio setup. Is it for a quicker refresh time on your lights so you don't have to use them at a higher power level?

@lindsayadlerphoto

2 жыл бұрын

Yes! Exactly. ISO 200 or 400 helps people with lower power strobes or to not have to shoot at full power. this is also super important depending on the modifier you use, if you are using gels, etc.

Thanks a lot, Lindsay. I'm not really happy with this video and I'm going to tell you why. So far I have enjoyed drawing sketches before it shoots or improvising during a shirt basing on my intuition and what I felt a shot woul like · all right this will look murky · yeah this one should be cute and flirtatious · and this should come out gentle feminine and perhaps pensive. But now... Now I have to think about my aims and what means I'm going to use to achieve them and the whys. And thinking is so much harder than the feeling and intuitioning. So thanks again, teacher/colleague. 👍🙂
