    Thank you for sharing this. I'm a photo editor for a national newspaper and it KILLS me that so few shooters don't take 5 seconds to add a little contrast.

      Reality is so boring give it some pop. s

    • @skyscraperfan
      @skyscraperfan Год назад +4

      That should be the job of the editor though. Usually the photographer sends JPEGs directly from the camera and if he chose a profile with a lot of contrast, it may be harder to recover highlights and shadows afterwards. So a flat profile is better in that regard. The filter in the video was very aggressive. Online media want photos within minutes ore even seconds. A newspaper of course has a lot more time.

    • @KevinGoosie
      @KevinGoosie Год назад +3

      ​@@skyscraperfanI remember watching a video on what an NFL photographer does. The photographer will do their job and shoot, then hand off the memory card at some point to someone that runs it to an editor while they use another memory card to keep shooting. Hence why sometimes, you are seeing photos super fast after a big play.

    • @gerry9306

  • @NuwandaSM
    @NuwandaSM Год назад

    Your committment to always use the full picture, without cropping, is what makes you apart from the rest. And it is the best lesson you gave to me in all these years, commit to your choices, commit to that focal lenght and take what it gives without thinking you can make it work later in the process.
    It would have been way easier to just shoot wider and frame the composition in post but it takes away so much of the magic of photography, your approach is unvaluable.

  • @CJAnderson
    @CJAnderson Год назад

    I love watching these videos that go into your process and approach to shooting, culling and editing your best shots. It’s a great reminder that one of the most important tools in any photographer’s toolbox is a strong plan or vision for what finished shot you’re looking for or story you want to tell. Intent is so important.

    I’ve started getting into photographing sports. It’s so much more fun than doing family portraits or other types of photography in my opinion. Tracking a player and trying to get action shots is a lot of fun! Keep up the good work and showing us the behind the scenes stuff at these pro events!

    Jared - Just wanted to thank you for sharing your powerful and personal “photo story” with us at the B&H Bild Expo yesterday. It was truly inspiring to witness. I went through a similar experience with my dad, so it helped me to know that I wasn’t the only one who used their camera as a shield, yet still had to keep shooting and documenting because it’s all I know how to do. I very much appreciated your time then, and all you do here. Have a good day.

    As someone who used to be so continuously frustrated by seeing how other photographers made virtually 'no mistakes' when I was starting out, It's so cool to see someone who taught me half of what I know show us that it's a regular thing, not just a hump that only good photographers can get over. A print would be so cool; I've been trying to find photos to fill up and to have photos made by the people who shaped my passion for photography, not just random ones found at a store, stuff that has real sentimental value. Thanks Jared for all the times you've inspired me and so many other people; keep doing what you're doing

    Thank you very much, the translation into Spanish has some problems and inconsistencies but it is still quite understandable so congratulations. The problem with the framing when Messi jumps must be the eternal dilemma between a fixed focal length and a zoom, especially if the lighting is as bad as you showed it, with a zoom it would have been even more problematic.

    Its very interesting to hear your "rate", and it sounds sorta similar to mine although for a different field (airshow, wildlife, and actually also landscapes when i go hiking, you know, it always looks different the next bend over). About 1/10 come into the close circle and about another 1/10 of those actually get edited, and i preselect about half to 1/3 of them for my main keepers (just how it turns out). I cant tell if those are "the best" technically, i just lack the skill, but its the one i like the most and since i only do that for me in most cases, thats fine.
