Oh my god. I CAN USE MY LAPTOP TO VIEW MY PICTURES INSTEAD OF A SMARTPHONE?!?! As one of the last flip phone users on the planet, I can not thank you enough for that information! My biggest headache with self portraits - and why I'm here - is trying to see if I'm in focus with my tiny little screen! You just made my life so much amazingly better I can not describe....thank you! Thank you!
Hi Brandi, thank you for those valuable advices, a bit different question - How can we use the self portraits ? can we earn money somehow if we got a beautiful or interensting self portraits ? any advices ? 😁😁😁
Great video, with great info. Thanks. I have a question please, i have a rebel t6i and I’m having trouble learning how to operate it. Can you help please? Thanks.
I was so hoping you would go over settings!!... but you didn't. You skirted around them. I would like to know ISO, which AF setting to use, why my human eye focus setting is not working, etc... I have nothing but blurry photos and I don't know why.
So we took portrait photos for someone with the prime lens and they were too sharp like were seeing pimples and blemishes what should I do next time. I'm thinking lower fstop or a different lens
If the portrait was taken at a smaller aperture, this will sharpen the details in the image both in the foreground as well as the background. It would be best to use a lens at a larger aperture such as f/2.8 or larger for a shallower depth of field. We invite you to contact us via Live Chat on our website until 8PM ET so we can go over some lens options based on the camera system you are using.
I would also recommend looking into hiring a professional retoucher if you really love a photo for your portfolio! Sometimes having really sharp textures look so beautiful when you can have someone professionally remove blemishes! A single photo could be anywhere from $20-40 to have that done. Or; I have some tutorials over on my channel on how i remove blemishes if you have photoshop! :) Just another idea
There isn't any flash triggers for a phone. However, there is the Profoto C1 light. It works best with your phone. The flash will go off when you take a photo with your phone, and it can used as a continues light.

A bit simple, but the results were excellent, and her upbeat infectious enthusiasm was wonderful. Excellent.
Ahh thank you! :) appreciate the kindness

Can u use a I pad to take photos? I'm doing a Model portfolio and don't have I phone only ipad
yeah, you could set up your iPad on a stand and set the timer on the camera app to take self portraits.

Aww cool
is there a flash trigger for phones?

I never shoot wider than f8 for self portraits.
Sometimes you want that creamy focus falloff - but it comes at the price of most frames being totally out of focus hahahaha
@@BrandiNicolePhoto You can always fix background in post. I change them a lot.
So cute
🙏🙏🙏 thank you!
I almost never shoot wide open, and especially not for portraits.
Create video. Ty
I need a fun masculine equivalent of this guide lol there isn't enough for us guys out there
Oh wow you look like Taylor Swift sometimes.
