That was one of the best videos I've watched from you. The delivery of your points related to lighting and how much of a difference between a strong image and an average image was conveyed so clearly. Loved it, even after watching it 3 times already, I got more from it each time. Your model was awesome as well, big Kudos to Jesus. 💯
So helpful to have talent like that out of their shell with poses etc. You could just let that guy go for 30 minutes and get amazing shots. Great instruction and guidance.
One thing I liked about this video is for the fact it’s so understandable… it’s like teaching the child how to crawl while you crawl along with him. Thank you.
Love the way you convey your concepts. Great advice, and I must admit I’m impressed by how sharp your images were at 5.6 when the foot was way out towards the camera:).
Great video, helps a lot. I tend to rush it too much, need to take the time and look over the pose more. Its a pain looking over the photos in post and realize what should have been done. Thumbs up for this one.
Mega super! Nigdy tu nie byłam u ciebie. Bardzo mi się podoba z jaką lekkością opowiadasz o tym, jak intuicyjnie, według własnego wyczucia i gustu ustawiasz światło i pozy. Super ! Samam fotografuję i własnie najbardziej cenie sobie zaufanie do tego co widzę i co chcę osiągnąć w zdjęciach portretowych i ludzi. Będę zaglądać częściej.
Awesome video, I have read the boring theory a million times, but it never sinks in, this is presented so well, everything makes sense. Thankyou, much appreciated
Love the focus on fundamentals. I often forget to lower my light when my model changes positions like yours did moving to a squat position from standing. Great reminder. I didn’t see much change with the negative fill but will rewatch from something other than my phone. I’ve not heard of the tip you mentioned briefly - 32” octa should be ~32” from the model. Sounds like a cool tip for quick setup.
Great model and interesting poses especially the triangle one he did holding his right heel with his left hand while standing. MGS sound bite ! was hilarious 😂
I learned a lot form this! Excellent video. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation especially on the poses. I've never seen that explained well before.
Jesus was a highly collaborative model. He seemed very interested in what you were saying and tried to strike a corresponding pose. The results should have pleased him. Well done!
Thank you Pye and Adorama, I always learn from and enjoy your videos. In this example, turning the V-Flats to the white side to show the difference would have been helpful.
7:12. I gotta have my eyes checked. The only - very subtle - differences I see in the negative fill shot are: highlight on the forehead is slightly subdued and left shoulder looks a bit brighter (and facial expression but that's not V flats effect)
any tips for photographing a person who’ve never have studio photography experience in a studio? i’m concerned they’ll complain about the lighting being too close to them or just can’t take being highlighted that long
That cat is a great model! How can you go wrong haha. Anyway....Some of this negative fills....Do you really need all that stuff when you can easily achieve it in post?
Curious as to why you chose a f stop of 5.6 ? I think a lot of the time photographers are drilled into thinking a higher f stop like 2.8 is always better.
Smaller aperture is usually better for studio portrait as we can have as much light as we want (using flash) and also makes the shot sharper. By using smaller aperture, you can get a deeper depth of field. Lenses also tend to be sharper around F4.0-5.6.
Thanks for watching! Comment below what you'd like to learn next!
Every vid from U is a learning opportunity regardless of the topic
I would love to see after processing from this video ❤
You rock, Pye! I've always found your tutorials to be accessible, your delivery tasteful, and the takeaways clear. Thank you!
Expression should match the pose....this phrase and explanation just opened the clouds for me. Crazy.
This is more about posing and working with a subject than studio lighting fundamentals. Not bad suggestions, but not what I was looking for.
It only educational but entertaining as well. Exquisite work. It always helps to have a talented model. MORE please.

Model Name is Jhesus Aponte
All I can say here is thanks. Creative illumination of the fundamentals.

Thank you Pye and thank you Jesus! Very helpful.

Thank you. So beautifully explained
This was fantastic. Could have been four hours and I'd have watched the whole thing.
Wonderful sence of human body & lights

Thanks for commenting, glad you enjoyed!
That was awesome!

I loved the Beyonce pose 🙂 . Great great job. Loved the audio as well. I wonder what lapel mic or whatever voice recorder you are using.
Needed this !
Great video
Another amazing video, thank you Pye. This will definitely help me with my fashion shoots coming in the next 2 weeks. Jesus is amazing.

@@payamjirsa Where is the link to follow Jesus, the dancer/model?
@@photocraftermomoftwo came here to ask the same thing
Very informative!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Great work
I loved the video ! Really... thanks for the detailed explanation 👏👏👏
What flash mode are you using? Normal or TTL?
7:12. I gotta have my eyes checked. The only - very subtle - differences I see in the negative fill shot are: highlight on the forehead is slightly subdued and left shoulder looks a bit brighter (and facial expression but that's not V flats effect)
super cool!
very educative
so great
This is great helps me emphasize details on my next shoot …👍🏻
Great video Pye, once again filled with very useful info. Thanks.
any tips for photographing a person who’ve never have studio photography experience in a studio? i’m concerned they’ll complain about the lighting being too close to them or just can’t take being highlighted that long
Great one 😎
Great video!
Outstanding, thanks for the tutorial.🔥🔥🔥
Thx!
Jhesus this is amazing!
Cool outfit and sweet posing.
I thought when you bought in negative fill, you were bringing in a new model, Negative Phil
That cat is a great model! How can you go wrong haha. Anyway....Some of this negative fills....Do you really need all that stuff when you can easily achieve it in post?
Curious as to why you chose a f stop of 5.6 ? I think a lot of the time photographers are drilled into thinking a higher f stop like 2.8 is always better.
