Thanks, and glad to see that I am not the ONLY person using Godox VL lights (I have 300, 200 and 150-watt versions).

[@StebanJeyathas]

Nicely done Rapheal

[@kristypence]

This is good stuff. Some questions in interviews you get stiff answers, and your right it does depend on the couples personalities. The bride I had was very enthusiastic about answering questions, while the soon to be husband thought he was in court 😂

[@RaphealPersaud]

LOL. It's the opposite for me but yea I get what you mean. Some may say it's unprofessional but a good drink helps break down the nerves!

[@kristypence]

so heres a million dollar question. Do you have a set list to ask your clients? some of the cliche ones are how did you meet? how many questions would you ask in a marriage video interview? Thanks for the reply!@@RaphealPersaud

[@creoleculture]

Yo! Love your content. Didn’t see the tripod you used listed. Do you have a link?

[@starta]

Another solid video bro! You def know your lighting - that's my biggest insecurity/area of opportunity with video. And LOVED the BTS breakdown of the setup during the shoots! And that masking approach is killer!!

[@JMXCzw]

Great approach... Thanks for sharing... I am on the micro four thirds system. Still tring to improve my lighting skills before I take on pro gigs... Are all the lights mentioned battery powered aswell?

[@RaphealPersaud]

Thanks for the comment. The VL150 is plugged into an outlet. The other lights are battery powered.
