    First and foremost, thank you for taking what I consider our most precious resource, time, to share the wealth of knowledge you have accumulated. Secondly, thank you for mentioning there are those of us out there who are not as “fit” as these two. Any chance of creating a similar video with some different body types? As always your instruction is priceless, a very heartfelt thank you!

    A lot of it is like you said, slow down cause once you get it right, you can shoot away and make micro adjustments to posing, changing lens etc and bang you’ll get amazing results like you did. Good video and topic

    It is hard to make a pick out all the good ones, I guess I liked the close ups by the column, but the street images go hand in hand to provide a story. I guessing this was on a Sunday because of no traffic and wondering if you did what I did to find location in an unknown location by googling on landmarks and using Google Earth to determine time of day of shade in the area? Learned so much through the years from you and I wish I was just starting out because you make it easy for someone to learn how to do it right!

    I think you’re posing then too much rather than letting them naturally get into the scene

    • @SalCincotta1
      @SalCincotta1  10 дней назад

      correct. because the avg person doesnt know how to "get into the scene" without direction. thats sorta the point of this entire video. im directing them to ensure i 100% get the shot i need vs hoping the couple knows what to do or how to do it.

  • @edmunek
    @edmunek Год назад

    the way how you talk to the model is below any acceptable level. the first time where she did not catch you pointing the direction and your tone?... 😕

    • @SalCincotta1
      @SalCincotta1  Год назад +2

      Omg insert eye roll. Get over it. These are my clients and we were joking w each other. “My tone”… sit down and shhh.

      ​@Sal Cincotta even your reply to the comment is rude. Maybe there is something you can improve upon as well.🤷‍♀️ I have a challenge keeping my tone friendly as well. And yeah you guys were joking but comments like that would make the client even more nervous and unsure of themselves...
