Sonia is ART. Seriously. She pulls off those experimental looks so well and she’s so charismatic in her pictures. Absolutely incredible. 🤩

THE GIRL IS AMAZING! I love how she moves her body and poses her hands.

[@thesebastian5225]

the last shots with the fabric really just took everything up a notch, amazing work.

[@ianhippolyte]

Thank you! ❤️

[@CherisBerries]

Im always fascinated with editorial shots like this, and I want to understand more in terms of gear like how lens work and the lights as well. I know there are a lot of tutorials out there but i was hoping you can make one focused on shooting editorial style photos, that would be amazing! Love your work!

[@simonabergerphotography]

OMG, I cannot believe how talented you are! Your model is absolutely stunning, but you my boy are the king of the castle!!!!!!

I hit the subscribe button without even watching the video first! Good to see a fellow black man do some good content.

Stunning work!! 🙌🏾

I didn't even let a second go by without hitting the subscribe button. I knew this BTS video was going to be fire and I was right! Love this and keep it up!

[@simonesimonsofficial]

Love it 🥰

[@YenHoang-dw9pr]

your video is really really useful, you make me realize lots of things about photography, lighting, etc. I dont know how to say, just feel so grateful now, thank you a lot, another way, I'll always follow you, your fan from vietnam ^^

[@rossholmes178]

Well done...Look #2 and the red fabric shots...smokin'!!!

[@josephchan4198]

Diffidently one of my favorite videos, great model, outfits, editing of video, and I love watching it again.

[@mediaflmcreation]

That soft house music in your intro made me subscribe right off the bat lol. On a more serious note, you are a REAL fashion photographer Ian I love your work. All these fake wannabe "models" running around here are nothing more than chicken heads looking for a free way out. You seem to put in some real work! LOVIN IT!

[@jackpowellphotography]

All the final photos are amazing! I love the lighting and especially the material at the end it works well bringing all stretches of the frame together! Amazing!

[@brianmorales5609]

You’re truly an inspiration to me. Photography becomes exquisite artwork flowing from your creativity.

[@thepearlatelier4256]

your photographic skills is insane, and your onscreen persona on point, i predict your channel will blow up and you will be a one of the best new generation of photographers out there.

[@ianhippolyte]

That's so kind! Thank you ❤️

[@thepearlatelier4256]

@@ianhippolyte its not a kind comment, its a fact, you will be really big, no doubt about it. And with a name like that who can forget.

Love how u get her melanin to pop so beautifully. I cant seem to find a proper tutorial for darker skin tones using only Lightroom. Would love your advice! Cheers

C Saunders 🤗

[@cr8momentsldn51]

@@csaunders584 literally about to say same thing before I saw this🙈😅. Yes Prince is King on this

[@Heartbeatzofficial]

I think most of the work is in the lighting. To create really dramatic highlights contrasted with dark shadows. It gives the body and skin more dimension and emphasizes the bone structure

[@jeswardantonio]

Heartbeatzofficial I've been reading some more on lighting and have learned some of the same. Have yet to see it in practice since I don't have a lighting system

[@TavarrFoust]

The red fabric shots were 🔥 🔥 y’all killed it.

[@SingleplayerRB]

Yoo this is my first time on this channel and i'm thrilled. That red cloth photo is good & gold i love it

The third look is amazing!! Definetly wanna try that out, thank you!

[@rambusdesigns3216]

Okay, I'm about to follow and watch more videos... that ending was Crazy with the fabric. and I'm going to try it. Hey, I was watching, and listening. @ 2:33 seconds is really where your video started to give important tips that I felt would be useful to the viewers. "Turn up to make it light, and go down to grey." but you glossed over it so fast we didn't get to see how that light affected the artwork. taking the time to Showing "us" those small details is just as important as the end result! wish you the best of luck! cant wait to watch more videos!

[@allyouneedislife7864]

WOW!!! What a model!!!!!!!!!! Really pro!

[@kimberleylarmouth3724]

You are SO talented! Thanks for showing us behind the scenes, I can't wait to see more!

[@jooksinged2549]

SUBSCRIBED ! I know as a photographer, you don't want to take shots that are just a flash in the pan, so I can definitely see your work being edgy for years to come. Congrats on a great shoot!

You totally knocked this shot out of the park, respect. I loved how you used you Key light as a backlight in th first two set ups, where exactly was your front fill though as hard to tell from the video?

FABULOUS!!!!

[@darkknightwithanidea1845]

It’s rare that I should arrive at a ‘photography channel’ especially one that’s original, intelligent & low key that has great work, yours is a GEM, the work is Pro so are the tools, lets face it Profoto isn’t cheap, you have access to great H&MUP, stylist & creative, it’s all there. Congrats. Ps- the work is stunning & yes I’m going to say it - very Nick Knight. Nadav Kander . You’re on your way.👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻🎥🖊👍🏻

You really know you work well. Haven't seen using the black screens put to proper use since film era. Great takes.

[@bingobrigade]

Incredible photos!

[@Aja.S]

I don't know why but as just as you said " hi guys " I thought this guy, I like his energy !

[@x3thelast]

fantastic use of the mirror and lighting. I tend to use harsh lighting on my work as I like the highlights it produces.

[@MiaNebo]

Wow you do such an amazing job always 🤩

[@catarinasofia2850]

You look so nice! Thanks for the nice tips!!!

[@axelgentinne6787]

Dude, your pics are just beautyfull

[@fergusgriffin2655]

the power suit look is great :D great work Ian. the fill from the front fills in the shadows nicely on the suit but how did you avoid cast shadows from the model appearing on the mirrored floor from the overhead gridded light? trying to get the same clear, shadowless, mirrored reflection that you did....! NOTE: Im using glass for floor, not a mirror.

[@rebuilding8036]

Wow thank you so much for this! I’ve taken great photos for friends via my iPhone but I’m so ready to break into high fashion, editorial scenes and make this my full time. Blessings to you friend ⭐️
