Probably one of the most useful videos on RUclips. Thank you so much! Getting the client to feel comfortable and look natural has to be the most important skill, and you do it so well. 🙏
This is awesome!!! This looks very effective! Great idea on the setup and giving the client more options to pick. Im glad I ran into your video!!! Thank you for sharing and I will have to try this!!!
I am so glad I stumbled on this video. Excellent stuff! My one issue is that it took over 5 minutes for her. If I have to shoot over 60 people that's a lot of time.
Thanks - This created over 60 images for the client, You can shoot quicker if you need less images. If you are being paid by the hour then surely if it takes longer it is better for you?
I enter the details right into my CRM, it tags their department and other details. This is in ActivCampaign The time that they enter their details match up to their images and I rename them manually
Great stuff Brett, thanks for sharing. One question: When you start the session we see the model enter her details like name. Whats your workflow there, entered in Capture1Pro/Lightroom? And then starting a new sesion for each person? Thanks in advance and keep it up!
Rushing through tasks can lead to overlooked details, compromising customer satisfaction and potentially causing long-term repercussions, emphasizing that prioritizing speed over quality is not always optimal.
Thanks for the feedback - I have been shooting for 30 years and when shooting this kind of work - time is money to the client and they appreciate that I get the job done efficiently. Not sure where I have compromised on quality?
@@Brettflorens It wasn't a critique of your skills, but rather an acknowledgment of the significance that a deliberate pace contributes to creativity and human connection, particularly in portrait photography. Working with celebrities on portraits is a frequent part of my job, and it can be disheartening when I realize that more time would allow for an even better outcome.

I noticed they were typing their information in. What software are you using, and how do you keep up with each individual?

That first backdrop is very badly creased. At least iron or steam it!
Good point, you are right.
🤣 SO BAD !!!!
Wow - Really?
