Creating Soft Light Outdoors for a Commercial Photography Shoot using the Westcott Scrim Jim

[@mfryworld]

great video Jason. love you showing the full assembly of gear, setup and the shot. little steps that solve your problems. it's those things that separate you from most.

[@in2food]

For my limited stuff I can't justify the huge scrim jim but I love using my 4x6. You are doing your followers a great service by suggesting diffusers.

[@maikywernet]

Absolutely fantastic Jason.

[@albertbuksnis5167]

Thank You Jason! So helpful! Will use your links as I move to purchase the Scrim Jim and Flashpoint 600 with Softbox & that super sturdy stand you use.

[@IbiRere]

I thank God i found you Mr. Jason Lanier.

[@antivar]

[@Strikeshotz]

[@juansiracusa9811]

Amazing Shots *.*

[@JoshuaBlood]

Thank you. Great shots. Thanks for inspiring.

[@billzidis2656]

Very good work Jason as expected.Tell me,whats your opinion about Sony A7r camera?Is A7rii big step ahead?Thanks

[@psalas71]

Hey Jason can you please explain why you used the flash even after using two reflectors. Timeline was roughly about 18:37, was there not enough light. I only ask because it seem like the two reflectors were just pouring the model with light, or was it just one of those things that the video didn't depict how dark it was in this particular spot.

[@ImDonnieDarko]

Do you have any videos showing how you edit your photos?

[@TonySooty]

Actually that's not a bad suggestion.. How about it Jason

[@Valrinn]

Same here I would love to know!!

[@TonySooty]

HI Jason, great videos and i really enjoy your enthusiasm towards your work. Can you help me out and explain what kind of settings your shooting at while using the off camera flash. Are you shooting Using HSS technique or shooting with the aperture open.

[@thomasvasquez9758]

Did Jason ever respond to your question about using HSS?

[@Yogi.sss-Photography]

Great photography johnson sir

[@platerplane]

i like that musgo-rock-beach-model combination, more with green-eyed girls hehe, great stuff as usual, loving your work, greetings supercrack

[@rafiba9982]

hey Jason! how come you use a reflector as a fill and the flash with the rapid box aimed both to the models front?

[@brianminkc]

woah... I want some of that lemonade too! I'll even take seconds or thirds on that.

[@HTDav01]

I wish people understood that it takes time to work with a given location. "Not enough light, problem solve." Loved that. Unfortunately, you only have a short period to problem solve at magic hour. I once did a shoot where they kept asking why it took so long. I had asked them to bring people who could carry reflectors, they brought one relative who could barely walk. Whenever I tried to take a photo with a reflector up, they'd tell him to get out of the shot, and he'd move, and I'd have to start all over. Since it was only day 2 for me of a 4 day shoot (the first day I got familiar with light and weather reports), I took it in stride. I sat them down later, told them to either shut up or don't show up, and they opted to leave me to the shoot with no help. I had to improvise the reflectors but I got way better shots.

[@GraphicDesigner.Gamers]

its so amazingly i love it

[@kalef1234]

300th like and oh my word those were some amazing shots! Loved seeing the whole process of setting up and manipulating the light. Wonderful solution.

[@tommynikon2283]

Who's the blond directing Jason to specific backdrops wanted/needed for the next session? I ask because I assisted a ton of major shoots in the 80's....and THE PHOTOGRAPHER always had say on the backgrounds; it's THEIR shot. It's the client's shoot. There's a difference. My guess is she is the owner/designer- Not an art director, and a control freak. I'm shocked she didn't demand a tethered experience, w/ Lanier dragging a laptop out to the beach. Jason- as per usual, AMAZING imagery.

[@paulhills1967]

Stunning

[@rupamkonar]

hey! jason...would like to see sigma 85mm f1.4...on sony a7r2.. it would be great if you test the lens out.. Thanks :)

[@markglenday7291]

Hi Jason, this is Australia calling, with the Flashpoint were you shooting manual at half power and was it on HSS, or were you using TTL. Also can you let me know what your camera settings are, ISO, SS and Apature and are you shooting in Manual mode? These images are awesome, I love watching your videos, as I learn heaps from them please keep them coming thank you :)

[@ASMRKlotz]

so his flash was used as a fill light in this session I take it with the diffuser being the main light?

[@joecerda630]

great shoot...where is that City?

[@thearrogantchef]

Nice shoot!

[@jackbright8455]

Of COURSE we are still here!

[@ianisamo8828]

Can you do a video on your post process and how you edit your commercial photography.. Thanks :)

[@Yogi.sss-Photography]

Great models

[@roybush1]

Jason great videos , quick question is the Godox in TTL or manual whilst using the Sony GODOX triggering.

[@JasonLanierPhotography]

Royston Bush manual

[@roybush1]

Thanks Jason for the kind swift reply, I assumed wrongly it was TTL due to the speed you were shooting in the video. Thanks again

[@deltafit]

Just the question I was about to ask. The speed at which he's shooting and moving the flash around in different positions seemingly not touching the trigger/settings also told me it was in TTL

[@ProductionArtVideo]

If I remember correctly, Jason never shoots TTL. With all the experience, he's just automatic.

[@88Nick8]

No he does not. All manual.

[@djoudimokhtar]

goooood very goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood man

[@3ttayww]

Hello Jason and Everyone in this comment section! Im a videographer and I want to start in the photography field. I want to know if it would be a good idea to buy the A7RII now or wait until the A7RIII to be released? In the meantime, Which camera would be the best buy between A7II & A6500? Thanks

[@gabrielwhittington8891]

What lens was used for the "mermaid dress" shots?

[@cappybenton]

Booyah! Great beach shoot. #LemonadeDreams

[@DougHall65]

#iwantlemonade! Great shoot.

[@technoalah]

You look good brother!!!

[@mikegreenslade1069]

Hi Jason! "Friggin Amazin!" Are you using Ettl on the strobe?

[@zplitt9]

high speed sync on the flashes?

[@maxxu8051]

It would be perfect to add an orange gell for the last lemonade lady :-P

[@cdave2006]

at wich power do you fire the flash ?

[@88Nick8]

Is this El Matador State Beach?

[@Dami603]

In Scotland, I must always check a weathercast before an outdoor shoot.

[@tobyhines7587]

Jason great video.Are You still working out? Or Are just getting bigger students.;-)

[@joecerda630]

also did you make that large diffuser or where did you get it?...thanks

[@llg4958]

On his channel, he has a new playlist called 'Gear I use'.

[@prs26]

Which lens are you using??

[@cronicasalien]

1:20 That's the kind of photographer that makes funny the shot: "You look sexy John" LOL

[@nethbt]

The Pierre Woodman of photography

[@msfphotography4857]

Amazing

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

The lesson of the day: "Zip it up!"

[@jbravo70]

Nice shoot Jason. Wanted to ask you if you prefer using the Canon 85mm 1.2 vs the Sony GMaster 85mm 1.2? And why? Thank you sir.

[@gtht99]

Sony 85mm G master is 1.4

[@africanhistory]

Looks like South Africa

[@vuhoangnguyen3951]

Hi Jason! Amazing work! By the way who is the lady in white top without bra?

[@vignesh46fpaqibdo]

[@FVG_alex_garcia]

God dam. Photography god.

[@nanotec6]

#LoveLemonade

[@ejphoto]

Did you have a permit to shoot in that location? If you didn't and the LAPD rolled up on you. OH MY GAWD!

[@ocroyal6688]

anyone know when this is in La Jolla? I've never seen this spot :(

[@mjphotos]

Using canon on Sony? I guess because the Sony lenses were not made them??

[@GONZOFAM7]

This is painting with light.

[@kadirozgur2727]

süper

[@Molaleni]

He looks like the villain from the movie Hancock

[@GraphicDesigner.Gamers]

my dream is u learn me am from egypt

[@waynestead607]

You charge people money to attend your workshops/paid shoots just to act as unpaid lackeys. They pay you to basically be abused. Put their lives in danger. And you cant even say please nor thank you. Common Courtesy

[@jeby4lyfe]

This guys is the laziest photographer I've ever seen "hey Brenda hold dat" Even Annie Leibovitz doesn't do that

[@rodsphotography1]

jason do a photo shoot of Brenda your photo assistance she is hot this photo work shop looks lot work and needs many assistance

[@shelleynobleart]

I like your weight loss, the setting, diffuse light but not loving the shoots in this one as they look like artificially lighted shots at the beach. And I can take a honey here and there, no problem with swagger, but seems a bit on the jerky side the amount you're doing in this.

[@spencediggz1]

Are you referring to the highlights on the left side of her face? I like'em. The "honey" stuff, I think we've been thru this before. He has a good rapport with with people he works with, hence the continuous workshops he gives. Cut Jason some slack.

[@JasonLanierPhotography]

NobleDesignMedia lol

[@JasonLanierPhotography]

spencediggz1 thank you...:)

[@shelleynobleart]

Ok. Slack given.

[@jameshandley2561]

jason swagg ls on polnt ln thls vldeo the welght loss has got he's swag on 10

[@Wightzebra]

I will volunteer to model for you. I am similar to her except I am a male, not good looking, old and can't pose. I am sexy and I know it and I workout.

[@Wightzebra]

I keed! I keed!

[@wendystumbaugh695]

Jason, I'm no prude, but I watch a ton of your videos and cringe when you say some of the things you say because I don't sensor what I watch in front of my kiddos. "Blows" "Sucks" and "MoFo" are so unnecessary. You're awesome all except for that stuff. Thanks for considering. If you don't stop, I still will watch of course, but pretty please???

[@RayValdezPhotography]

damn are you from the 50s?
