Thank you for this video great explanation thanks Pye and Adorama.

[@cdgarcia]

I’m always impressed with this guy’s radio voice most of all. Thank you this is great content and well thought out vid

[@gcnphilly]

This is a great video. Like the challenge to consider compounding compositional elements.

[@Pysees868]

Great tips, love the photos.

[@kendranobiz630]

Subscribed. Thanks for this video! I'm an amateur and you've given excellent and actionable info I can use to add intentionality to my photo composition process.

[@jerrym8140]

Great tips! Another idea is to also take another look at your images you don’t select as determine why you didn’t select them vs the ones you did. Besides those times maybe a flash didn’t fire, missed focus etc, it’s often because visually it didn’t grab you like another image did and look as to why before just deleting them.

[@MrAlanearle]

Great information o put into practice and very useful . Thank you!

[@kalyanalladi]

Wow, that's too many concepts with superb images

[@longfinger]

Great tips Pye.. Thank you!

[@ricaa50]

Very informative and well explained. Thank you. A suggestion for a future topic would be "planning and preparing" a shoot. Or how to organize and execute a project / assignment.

[@slrlounge]

Thank you for the suggestion. We will add that to the list of topics we are considering for 2020. For a written version of "planning and preparation," we have this article here: www.slrlounge.com/planning-wedding-photography/

[@mdturnerinoz]

Awesome, Pye, keep this up; anything you feel like showing will interest me!

[@webmaster4ZLCB]

[@mariomifsud1302]

Well explained. Great job especially towards those who want to learn.

[@joes2828]

Pye is the man!

[@kellyturnerphotography]

joe s I agree!

[@dronetechie969]

awesome advice great great video. What camera did you make the pictures with?

[@PacoM.]

This is gold. I've never thought of composition this way.

[@hymanlevy2265]

Very Interesting and I am sure helpful

[@sagarstudiophotography]

Thanks for explaining. I'm waiting for the next video

[@divpatel1676]

Thank you for such video that helped me out in many ways

[@dchodeva]

Epic tips here!

[@iAmAdrianClarke]

Well explained. Great job. Composition is the most difficult fundamental for me. You just made it much easier

[@Pysees868]

Same for me. I so often find myself stressing about ensuring I get the camera settings right. All the while missing out on just looking/seeing and capturing.

[@arnaldofonseca]

Great video, thanks for the tips and personally for letting me know I was no crazy when I recognized San Juan, PR (where I am from) streets in the last image

[@hcp0scratch]

Nice video, TY!! Regarding your wedding photos; How many customers are happy with so much negative (or non-subject) space in some of your examples?

[@slrlounge]

We train our photographers to tell the full story with a variety of angles and crops. For any scene, we deliver wide, medium and tight shots that, when laid out in a blog or album spread, complete the story. Here is a little more info about this: www.slrlounge.com/7-ways-for-photographers-to-sell-more-wall-art-and-photo-albums/

[@Ikstudio007]

[@srb980]

[@63rml]

Great video, it needs a summary at the end. I did learn a lot. Mike

[@ManishSharma-pp2oh]

Genius man vry well explained expecting more on compostion

[@legacymediatv526]

Awesome!

[@manishpatil5516]

Very nice

[@hermansurkis9229]

One simple trick... combine various compositional techniques into one photo. Brilliant. For those who missed it...a ton of sarcasm.

[@MartinV.]

Great Video

[@fotofyn]

Your video here with you and theme you tell about it constantly make me notice your own placement in the video image, which is slightly back with the most space possible. Which, by the standards of the right cut, is completely beside the point. Funny that you did not think about it in your video production of this video. :)

[@p.burley4533]

Do you suggest a beginning photographer learn light theory and color theory as separate disciplines apart from photography?

[@hamsterneckliving]

well done!

[@veselinvasilev9362]

Thank You!

[@milindkulkarni9156]

What app or software do you use for adding those graphics and the text in between.

[@midnightlead]

Greate photographs, greate explanation. The problem is not to know the rules, the problem is to see the rules around! I will take this video as motivation one, but not like tutorial one.

[@ninacleven7889]

Looking forward to seeing more episodes.

[@aravindramanan2926]

Amazing

[@ThePhotographyHobbyist]

It's good to know the basic rules/methods to start with but beyond that, the scene dictates the compositions and it may not always be a traditional composition :-) Anyway, great examples!

[@EngeyumLove]

Pls share some tutorials on monochrome

[@xen908]

An interesting theme

[@lancmac]

Excellent hints to bring life into our pix

[@ricaa50]

Noticed you use flash alot in your wide angle shots. Are you taking multiple images and layering them or are you taking one shot and erasing/cloning the flash out?

[@slrlounge]

Yes exactly! We often clone out flashes in photoshop. Here's a tutorial on how we do it in under 2 minutes. www.slrlounge.com/how-to-remove-light-stands-via-compositing-in-less-than-2-minutes/

[@Absquatulationist]

Love the video! I'd really appreciate if you would show some loser images too, where maybe you had one technique perfect but because there was only one it was an L instead of a W

[@slrlounge]

Great idea!

[@farhoodneyli9044]

Nice

[@DeeniMan45]

If Drake was a photographer... Still informative video but you ain’t slick Aubrey

[@Ali_ReBORN]

First ☠️

[@slawomirszortyka3355]

0:50 "it's difficult to remember them all", example #3 seven rules combined! decide whom are you adressing this to?!

[@michaelmcphee2930]

Photos 1 & 4 don't work for me. Being shotgun shots. Two and 3 are better IMHO. In 4 for me having the model facing west would have been better. But it's a 'll subjective and that's the beauty of it all.

Sorry but this photos looks like fake, edited. I don't feel like this is a nice and real photo.(Don't be angry, just a opinion) Anyway, thanks for your tips and maybe next time show in video how was the shooting of the photo.

[@JeffreySchaefer]

Great video but please stop saying "kinda" so often.

[@bobchristensen4897]

What's up with the background noise? Pretty distracting.

[@aboutsean]

The flash makes the first picture look fake. It's really not a good pic IMO.

[@rosalieadlam9647]

Great idea spoiled by poor presentation. Over use of the phrase "kind of" is really distracting. E.g. it's not "a kind of door", it's a door - . Tip - keep it simple, as not all your audience has American English as their first language -
