The model is fantastic, obviously she knows what she is doing, the poses are superb. Well done.

[@ChoFrog09]

She's such an incredible dancer -- it's really refreshing, you see so many photoshoots with models who claim to be ballet dancers who are visibly untrained.

[@stevolopez]

I take pics of ballerinas as well. TIP: It helps to have your camera connected to a TV right next to you, the photographer, so you can both see each pics without her running over or you going over to show her in a 3 inch screen.

Thank you for this video of workshop with a lovely model

[@regarmstrong3053]

[@zdavis9091]

Nice work

[@oliverjungmann8133]

very nice..!!!

[@darrenturnerphotography]

Although this is am interesting video the workshops organiser needs to talk more with his model / dancer so he has some idea of what she is about to do next, discuss each dance move so you actually know how it is supposed to look before she does the poses & before you take the shot, conversation and discussion is the key.......and for god sake sound like your actually enjoying what your doing.

جميل جدا ما شاء الله 👏

[@vaccaro1966]

It would have been good if you have given us the strobe lights' settings. I assume they are on the lowest power for freezing action.

[@CamAttreePhoto]

Actually there isn't a lot of point sharing the actual flash power settings unless you are using the exact same flash units, modifiers and distance to the subject. In this case the Elinchrom ELC Pro's actually have the shortest flash duration around half power which is different to most flash units which achieve this by using the lowest power setting.

[@vaccaro1966]

@@CamAttreePhoto Thank you. That is what I wanted to know. Lowest power to freeze the action :)

[@stevolopez]

Where did you get that light with all the triangle barn doors?@@CamAttreePhoto

[@outtathyme5679]

Why not try burst mode

[@Spudgun88]

The strobes wouldn't keep up, but fine for LED.

[@gwhech]

Strobes do keep up in burst mode but it shouldn’t be needed

[@bazintrickways3045]

Gavin Hewitt no they don’t. Colour temp would be off and what?

[@veroniquelebreton8]

Est-ce vraiment une vraie ballerine ? Je la trouve très musclée pour une ballerine en général les ballerines de ballet leurs muscles sont fins et dans la longueur délicate

[@suzysmash3560]

So uncomfortable. Creep. There’s minimal help and maximum perv factor in this
