Loved the burn and dodge aspect... it also helped me to hear you say that you didn't know what pose to do! Nice to know it happens to seasoned photographers and not just beginners haha. I would imagine it also makes the client giggle and relate more to the photographer, shows your human!

I'm retired now but I used to like to over expose a little when I thought the image could benefit. Not enough to blow out important highlights but to bring up shadow detail, which if I tried to do in post would lead to a lot of noise.

The editing was a huge help! I wasn't sure how to incorporate Photoshop edits in without over doing it. I'm new to the whole photography scene and I shoot my girlfriend. She want's to more outdoors and we're stuck with a lot of that hot Texas sun and light. This is going to make a big difference.

A great video, and I still learn a lot from them. Unfortunately here in Arizona our outdoor backdrops consist of sand and cactus, so I envy the water scenes. The one question I have is that in all your videos Ive not seen you use a color correction/calibration card as a first shot with the model. Do you find them unnecessary? I've not developed a good eye for those subtleties yet so I thought that aid would be helpful
@MichaelSasser2 жыл бұрын
I don't use them because I just create the image the way I like, it might be colder or warmer than what they gray card says is "correct"

For me, I'd get rid of that very white branch stump in the upper left, or darken it so that it doesn't distract so much. Other than that, it looks great.

Michael your all previous work was amazing but this new canon system is not reflecting the quality of your shoot. Its may be a new stuff and need a bit more practice. But waiting for mord shoots to see. 😊👍
@almusur17812 жыл бұрын
Loved the shoot. A lot of great info there. I also loved the processing with one exception. In the upper left corner of the photo there is an annoying and distracting piece of tree trunk that ruins the shot. It kept drawing my eye to that corner. Some content aware fill could have removed that without affecting the crop.even just darkening that corner would have made it better.

maybe if you would have been a bit closer to the water line... the camera i mean... i know it kinda freaked you out being in salt water but the pose and shot would have been awesome!! The final editing process was cool... but would have loved to see this same photo from a lower POV... just my 2 cents.

Natural light doesn't suck, but it can be limiting. What sucks is when a photographer posts a photo saying it's straight out of camera/natural light as if that makes it better when all you can think is that it'd look a lot better with a little more light.
@greatpix2 жыл бұрын
That's the type of shoot where I'd love to have the Canon 35-350 zoom. For me, that lens' huge zoom range giving me the ability to change perspective, would be more important than shooting with a fast lens wide open. In fact I used the 600mm once for a shoot like yours and if I could have afforded it I would have kept it. (and later added a teleconverter.)
