Brooklyn is absolutely beautiful and talented in her own right. But Peter it’s really how you place them in the best light but also how you communicate and prompt your subjects. It really shows in the images but also how they respond to you. What a beautiful session and a lot of fun to watch. Love your work!!
Firstly, I love Brooklin. That lookaway lookback was so good after you had her slow it down. I loved watching her eyes glow as soon as you mentioned her dogs. Thanks so much. 🙏❤️
Thanks, Peter, for sharing your approach and philosophy on working with a model. It's always a pleasure to look at your work, you are a good teacher, and without saying a great photographer, cheers! Live Long and Prosper!
OMG! What a cool shoot.....Brooklin is incredibly beautiful and those blue eyes really pop! I love how you (Peter) can sense her feelings and easily express how you want to make her look and feel comfortable. It obviously shows in the photos, Bravo!🥂👏 Thanks for the awesome shoot and to Bec for helping capture it!
Thank you for sharing your process to work outside the studio, use or find available light and especially how to reveal the inner beauty of your subjects.
You teach me so much with these vids, thank you. More, I find myself smiling the whole time I'm watching, there is just so smooth an interaction between you and your model.
Hi Peter. As a professional photographer like me, this was possibly the most strenuous shot of your career for you. I keep the reasons for this to myself. I hope Bec, the daughter of your heart (?). will accompany you forever.
Very cool to watch you work. I often takes notes. "Who are you looking at? The camera has no face. Who do you see?" Brilliant. Thanks for sharing your hard-won experience.
Many thanks for this new BTS video. @Bec: You are spectacular, as always; many thanks for filming and being filmed too. @Brooklin: You are an amazing model, many thanks for posing in this session and for being exposed for training purposes; I wish you the best. @Peter: Many thanks for the session with only natural light; from my point of view, the most difficult, with natural light, is the undesired darkness of the eyes (below the eyebrows), that doesn’t obviously happen in your photographs.
Very nice, you got some great shots. After watching you, I realize I'm so used to working with lights, I've forgotten. how much fun you can have with natural light.
Brooklin is extraordinary! It was very insightful how you shot great portraits rather than using the cool LA skyline like of us would have. Awesome work!
@11:56 is what I like, the eyes return to the viewer, as opposed to the look away. There was another example when Brooklin was standing by the railing. IMO that mid speed look back is less predictable for a fleeting moment picking up a real reaction than the longer gazing off camera. Great session.
Loved this video!! Peter made Brooklin feel so comfortable. Watching the video section at the end i was amazed how often the camera lost focus on her?!
hollywood hills - ...i think you're near Keanu Reeves' casa. Peter, you captured Brooklin as a film starlet perched over her dominion -- bravo:) Really liked the shots of Brooklin in the black top --- great contrast with her fair hair. Also great lesson for the model --- not looking at the camera but at what makes her happy, what gives her joy. and you can switch up the look based on instilling the model's object of affection, or desire. Photographer as guide, director and lighting maestro.
And once again you have shown a great photoshoot, Peter. Bec as an assistant is awesome (as always). Brooklin is gorgeous. Would like to see some more shoots with her in the future. An extra thanks for reminding to tell models anout their happy places. Have to use it more often. Cheers from snowy Bashkiria. PS. would like to see you shooting in winter with lots of snow )))
I cannot understand why Peter didn't bring some light for city view shots. Yes, the model is stunning. Yes, the portrait has to be clearly put in foreground. Yes, the model has deep blue eyes with blond hair that will shine gold. But when you have rent an hollywood hill flat, Just a shot to give that large perspectiv is a must. Well, I would humbly do it for myslef : I cannot afford such a location ! Keep it up with that great work and sharing to the community.
Obviously went much better after the change of clothes. She's clearly uncomfortable in that first outfit, constantly pulling on it, trying to cover/hide herself with her arms. You'd never get relaxed natural posing out of someone feeling exposed or self conscious like that.
I tell you what Peter you have really spoiled me on working with tethering. It has really made a big difference decreased my work load cause we can change lighting on the fly and make subtle changes for the customer then and there. I use a canon T7 and light room classic tethered to a laptop and an external monitor. 1 Continues light and one strobe on a 55 inch godox soft box.
great video of course. was this your ABB? that too was amazing what i saw but youre right, the model is more important than the scenery or the house. she looks very much like Julie Michaels from Roadhouse. she played Denise... looking forward to the NEXT video
Hello Peter, another excellent set. Would you share how you're using the Sony mounted on the bracket to your Leica? If it's video, do you have any clips to see the results? Is there another video on this setup? I haven't seen you do this before.
Stunning..stunning...I can do better...that's my man 😂. Lovely clean natural face. The video had some great shots in it too especialy when she looked away. Now after shooting Brooklin in LA find a model called LA to shoot in Brooklyn. Thanks for sharing this was a real good one.
Peter, as you already know, I DO LOVE your wonderful model photography and your very interesting and cool way of teaching. Incredible improvement of Brooklin in Los Angeles between the beginning and the end. One thing bothers me: I doubt very much that you did use your Apo-Summicron-M 1:2/90 ASPH at f/82 as mentionned :-) !!! Michel in Brussels !
@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer Yes that I am sure of, Peter, but at f/82 seems very strange to me due to the super tight DOF you get in gorgeous Broolin's in house portraits.
@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer I knew it had to be typo, but wanted that to be fixed so everything is perfect, as your Art photography and the art with witch you teach it. Thumbs up Peter.
When do you decide to shoot with the sl2 over the sl2s outside of the studio as I see you using both? Im deciding to upgrade to Leica after using the S5 and I haven't really tried using a higher MP camera.
I understand this photoshoot is all about the model, but being in such a great location, I kinda feel you really missed out on including just a tad more of the great environment (house) imo. Gorgeous pictures and footage nevertheless :-)
dumbass. my life is fantastic. the comment is about your amatuer so called model photoshoot. oh its just beautiful. give me a break. you are not a pro. bugger off@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer
The difference when Brooklin understood what you were aiming for and slowed down... was phenomenal. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching

She was tense to start with, but you got relaxed with gentle encouragement.

You have a way with making her so comfortable and bringing her out of her shell. Great stuff!
Thank you so much!

It is great seeing how Peter makes the best use of available Light!
Thank you
That closing shot though, wow! So funny to have a house we would all kill to shoot in, and Peter gets a killer image that could be anywhere.
Thanks Paul, I'm more into foregrounds 😁
Very cool to watch you work. I often takes notes. "Who are you looking at? The camera has no face. Who do you see?" Brilliant. Thanks for sharing your hard-won experience.

Brooklyn is a beautiful model. Beautiful face, eyes, and hair. Always enjoy the videos.
Kudos for location, lighting and subject. Well done photography.
Glad you liked it!
It's incredible, beautiful model, thank you for sharing.
Thank you
Great job guys. So glad Brooklin got this opportunity. Looking forward to next year’s workshop!
Thanks Jim, we can't wait to be back 😁

Thanks, the video at the end was on manual focus at f2 and I was drifting the focus in and out on purpose 😊

When you travel, do you always shoot natural light? Do you ever travel with modifiers and lighting and shoot this way?
Yes ruclips.net/video/gIVE_x2K0WA/видео.htmlsi=agCYiLFwCGQr-wLS
Are you certain she just had one workshop? I think she did great. ;)
Thank you yes only worked with her once before this on a workshop
I learnt a lot! Thank you so much for the informative tutorial!
You're very welcome!
great work .. was your lens the 90mm APO SL or M ?
Thanks, Leica - Apo-Summicron-M 1:2/90 ASPH
nice stuff. the Sony does better with video focus.
When do you decide to shoot with the sl2 over the sl2s outside of the studio as I see you using both? Im deciding to upgrade to Leica after using the S5 and I haven't really tried using a higher MP camera.
sl2 more for video sl2s more for photos
@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer did you mean the opposite? As i recall sl2s were better for videos
@@Evrce no a lot of the video settings the sl2s goes into aspc mode and I don't like that
@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer thank you i really appreciate your work and your words
Bec, did you make it to Pinks this trip ?
No we didn't
I understand this photoshoot is all about the model, but being in such a great location, I kinda feel you really missed out on including just a tad more of the great environment (house) imo. Gorgeous pictures and footage nevertheless :-)
I'm all about foregrounds not backgrounds
Very nice
Thanks
She needs to watch Ana and Rara's videos on how they do and learn from them and then I think she will go far.
How do you fix the second cam for the video on your Leica? Is it a special holder or just a pice of metal with 2 srews?

Who are the people in background? Is this a workshop? Can we do private workshops with Peter?

How do we book a private workshop?
