I’m a professional portrait photographer that specializes in OCF work. I do very little post work almost never layers. (My colleagues would crap if they knew how little PS I know😂. I don’t know why I’ve always shied away from RE but your videos have been super helpful!
First bump for me is adjusting exposure bringing up shadows dropping highlights, changing profile to standard...that's about it. I do verticals at the end after I merge my layers.
Wondering if we could just desaturate the oranges and yellows in the ambient shot prior to sending to PS? Do you think that would solve the color cast issue seen in some luminosity blends? Just spitballing here
Yes you could do that but it would be a global edit affecting the entire image. In this situation that would be ok. Easier to do a hue saturation layer in photoshop though.
It’s working well for me, but I’m having trouble getting it to fully remove me when I blend with the gradient tool. It shows me faintly, transparent but still visible. What do I need to adjust so it blends it better?
Hey there! 👋 Not related to your video (sorta). If you put things, icons, words, etc, in your thumbnail on the bottom right hand side, they're obstructed by the length of the video time stamp when on mobile :) just my unsolicited $0.03 from a fellow creator/photographer.
I know. I'm releasing a new tutorial soon where I go over all that. Every situation will be different so I don't want people to get caught up in that detal that may or may not pertain to every situation. But I will start to mention it in future tutorials.
Joe, I'm loving your "Lighten" mode for the compositing part. This trick will save me time for sure. Thank you 👍🏼❤👍🏼
Yes it will! I use it all the time!!
Great video man, thanks for the tips
You're welcome. A lot of new tips coming that I've discovered in the upcoming weeks!

Lol. I would love to never use photoshop ever again. Thank you for your feedback!
Great video!! I'll definitely be following your future videos!
Awesome! Thank you
Great tips Joe!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
dude... that was pretty sweet..
New tutorials coming out showing how it's even easier with the Godox ad600! Thanks for watching!!
Go....Joe
is creating the "first bump" just bringing up exposure slightly to the right and checking verticals? Is there anything else?

what app are you using to see the image on your phone?
For my olympus camera, I'm using the OI image app. What camera do you use?

Make sure you're opacity is 100% and you are using a black layer mask with white selected. And start in front of yourself.

Ugh. I did know this. Always forget about that.
You didn't mention how much power did you use for the flash pop ?
I know. I'm releasing a new tutorial soon where I go over all that. Every situation will be different so I don't want people to get caught up in that detal that may or may not pertain to every situation. But I will start to mention it in future tutorials.
@@joefoto looking forward to watch it.
If you do flambiant are you not doing hdr?
No hdr for me. To do it right, takes way too long at least for me. I either do flambient or single image ambient.
