Taking you on a shoot with me for a behind the scenes shoot is something I wanted to do for a long time and now you can see how I do it by seeing the experience I give my clients and the tips I'm giving you as a photographer. This video will give you great ideas as to how to photograph couples.
I believe the experience you give you clients is so valuable for making you client feel relaxed and when they are relaxed they look so much better on the photos for the smiles become real and their body language better.
This behind the scenes couple and engagement shoot video is meant for any photographer whether you are starting out or more experienced because lets face it, we can all learn from each other. The photography tips as well as people skills will help you go to the next level with your photography even if it's only a small step.

The way you "involve" us into your shoot is simply amazing. Thank you for being such an awesome teacher, sharing insights and quality tips with us. I love your work, I love your videos, I love your heart! Keep on keeping on!!

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you so much for the kind words and the feedback. You have no Idea how much I appreciate it! So happy that you find value in my content.

[@Printographer1]

Great video... I'm learning English from it. But why did the background turn out overexposed? I doubt that such shots would come out with my 70-200 2.8.

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you for the comment. Photography is an art form and therefore it's left to the artist how they would like to expose a photo. In this case if I wanted detail on the background I would have to use a flash and I did not want to in this shoot. The 70-200 is a very good lens and you should get very similar results.

[@hurleygreen927]

Love the information and the way you related to your subjects...THANKS!

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you for the feedback. Glad you liked it.

[@Cilliersv]

Kobus made this look easy. Couples will always be a bit awkward in front of camera an he shows plenty of experience in working with couples. Lot's of insight. Thank you Kobus!

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you for taking the time my friend I really appreciate it!

[@sobiacsay2208]

Absolutely incredible! You're a great photographer and teacher! The location 🔥 ❤😢. I was wondering though, how many if these pictures do you end up submitting to the couple?

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you for the kind words. I happy to hear that you enjoyed it. The amount depends on the package that the couple choose but on average about a 100.

Hi Kobus. Dankie dat jy deel! Watter lens het jy gebruik met die solo fotos van hulle in die pad?

[@KobusTollig1]

Hi Anida. Groot plesier. Dit was die Canon 135mm f2

[@lubintasevski5985]

Generally the video was done well and the directions were great. My only critique is you focus too much on making the female look good and there was little to no direction for the guy, and some shots she looked stunning while he was not very flattering. When you were showing both of them your camera, it was the only time in the video when I saw the guy looking good. I'm sure you did get some in your shoot off camera, but don't forget the guy needs direction too. Despite my comments, I'm sure the couple were very pleased as the photos looked great. And it's not like the guy needed much direction, but I like to add balance in my shots to have a few shots where he's the main focus as a treat for her to appreciate later as well. At least when he was alone, and the shots at the end you did geta few shots of him as the main subject looking great.

[@noveus6111]

Thanks for sharing such valuable behind the scene moments! keep the great contents rollin.we'll be rooting for you! Thanks Kobus!

[@KobusTollig1]

[@SARAfotografie]

Thanks for your video! You make everything seem so easy!!😅 Do you remember why you used exposure compensation?? Or why did you also underexpose? Could you explain to me...thanks😃

[@KobusTollig1]

So happy to hear that you found it easy! Exposure compensation is just faster and easier to use ;-) See you in the next one.

[@shawntaylor9509]

Lekker Kobuzzz, die video help baie! Jou lag is aansteeklik!

[@KobusTollig1]

So dankie vir die comment. Ek waardeer dit en ek is bly dit help. Sien jou in die volgende een

[@bl0m4]

Hi Kobus. Great video, learning so much!! What is your advise on always getting your couple in focus - especially when couples are walking and are slightly apart from each other?

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you and it's so great that you learning. I use continues focus so that the focus always hunts if that makes sense. If you want both people in you will have to look at f11 or higher but having one in focus who is the "main" subject in the images is perfectly fine.

[@CottoncandycreativesTas]

Great client interaction matey , I love watching other photographers work 😊

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you appreciate the feedback.

[@hendrietboelhouwers9209]

Thank you so much for your videos. I'm curious if you needed to change your ISO a lot, or could it stay at 800 the whole shoot? Looking forward to more videos!

[@KobusTollig1]

My pleasure and thank you for taking the time to comment. The ISO depends on the location you shoot at. So if the location has a lot of shadow areas and exposure changes all the time you might have to. For this shoot I hardly changed for it was out in the open most of the time. I started changing it at sunset and then you have to check it every couple of minutes because it's getting darker. I ended the shoot I think with ISO 6400 on my Canon 5Dmk4

[@hendrietboelhouwers9209]

Thank you for this reaction!

[@jc-crafford]

Thanks. This was great. Do you ever use OCF during these photo and wedding shoots?

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you JC for the kind words. I use to use OCF but in the last few years I only use OCF for corporate or fashion shoots.

[@Sotangy247]

Great video.. perfect couple for this video

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@laneyrae6937]

I love this video!! Thank you. I have a hard time getting my lens to focus with the sun in the frame 😭

[@KobusTollig1]

Thank you for the feedback. Try hiding the sun behind the couple and then recompose a bit while holding focus. Always hard for a camera to focus into the light.

[@riaannaude5837]

Kobus there is always so many insight and learning moments in your videos, I love it.
