Best tutorial in avoiding glare in glasses that I’ve seen thus far! Thank you!😊
Great video very informative. I was doing all the seniors graduating with their caps and gowns and I was using my eyelighter and lighting in a clamshell just like you have. I saved all the seniors that were wearing glasses at the end and to my surprise other than the one tall guy I didn’t have to adjust it until he was up. I thought for sure I was going to have to remove the eyelighter to takes them all wearing glasses but your method work perfect. I wish this video would’ve came out two months ago I wouldn’t of been so nervous LOL. Love the videos you guys post all the time. They are much needed and are great source of information for us photographers
I so love this presenters videos. Very nicely presented and highly informative. Thanks so very much for these!!
Ashley's great.
Amazing content as always. Great video Ashley and Jacob!
This is the best instruction and explanation of avoiding eyeglass glare. Thank you so much!
Glad this was helpful Karen!!
Quick, easy, simple, and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you soo much Ashley this was helpful
Very informative! Thank you
Love it! 📸
Great video Ashley
Excellent video. Perhaps changing the position of the glasses vice changing the subject position might describe what we want to do better? Sometimes a slight readjustment of the glasses on the subject's face will solve the problem.
This was very helpful and well explained thank you!
You're very welcome!
Great video! Considering 50% or more of people wear glasses on a daily basis. Will save me lots of time and headaches. Thank you!
Happy to help!
Amazing tutorial
Perfect! Thank you 😘
This was very helpful. I especially liked the images that showed the effects of the wrong placement. The only additional tip I would add is to make sure that the subject has the glasses pushed up as far as they will go on the nose. Sometimes ill-fitting glasses slide down, and the top of the frame intersects with the subject's eyes - not a good look!
Exactly what I needed, thanks.
You're welcome!
Great Video!!
Thanks!
Great. Thank you!
Great video... very informative. But what do you do in a room that doesn't have a really high ceiling, like maybe 8' high and you need to do a batch of people in a short time?
This was helpful
Helpful video. It would be nice to know your fj-200 power setting and if you are in TTL or manual. Thanks
Thank you so much!
nice useful information for everyone photographer.
What is the background board are you using? Thanks for the video.
great video! Question? Did you have to do any photoshop edits on glare in post cause this looks perfect! I have a client on The Weeknd who wears glasses and taking them off isn't an option. this video was great thanks
A different way I approached this issue was using a CPL filter on my camera and a flashlight coming from my light. If I get rid of the flashlight, I don't have reflection. Looks a little weird with 2 lights and flashlights taped to them, but no lens glare.
Hi, do you mind explaining a bit more?
Wouldn't the polarised filter cut out glare? I didn't quite understand the utility of the flash light
@@tigerheaddudethe flashlight is attached to the strobe so that they project from the same angle. Since the flashlight is a continuous light you can see where glare will happen without even needing to take a shot. You can just look through the viewfinder or live view and adjust the filter until the light from the flashlight disappears. Then since the strobes are from the same angle they should be canceled out by the filter too. It's just a faster way to dial it in and not need to test for the strobes over and over to check for glare.
Obrigada por essa explicação maravilhosa, conseguir acompanhar direitinho pela legenda automática ❤❤❤❤❤, vou tentar o que você fez!
THANK YOU!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks!
Awesome thank you
You bet!
Awesomeeee
What is the stand you are using for the eye light? I have trouble finding one that will adjust low enough
BACKGROUND light stand; try Manfrotto or Avenger.
This might sound like a silly question but instead of umbrella could you used a soft box like a light dome II? New to lighting. Is it up to preference, because I love the look of these shot. But for like a white back ground corporate headshot would this umbrella or soft box be better? Much appreciate in advance for anyones help.
This technique can certainly be applied to any softbox! It's all about understanding the direction and angle of your light.
Great tips, thanks! Would the FJ 400 work as well in this situation?
Absolutely!
Excellent.. and who was the Model you used, she is beautiful. great presentation.. Thank you
Thank you madam
Need help, how avoid reflection from diamond surface. Like earrings, necklace, nosepiece etc your little help would be great for me. Thank you
@@heyashleyboring first thank you for your help, now I'm going to try polarizing filters
we as a agency/photostudio tried so hard to get one of these eyelighter... unfortunately there is nealy no way to get some in germany to an affordable price. :(
I explain the angle of incidence by using a tennis ball. It bounces exactly 180 degrees opposite how it was initially tossed.
I will try these tips. Now both of my granddaughters wear glasses 😢
Anti glare is huge!
Polarizing filter
If only you could slow down a bit so one can follow the content and not pause every other minute as you move on fast. 😍

or you can simply pop those lenses out from the glasses frame.
Sigh.... If this only would be in my native language... I could show it to my novice wife. Not sure if I can translate it well enough to make sense for her.
or take the lens out of the frames,if you can?
Great tip!
