LEE Filters - Portrait Lighting at Home with Jake Hicks

[@mauna2004]

That soft filter really adds a lot to the shot, love how it went from, "Thatʻs cool," to "Holy Moly thatʻs awesome!" With just the filter.

[@emomitev2]

I love the way you show how things are gradually developing in the setup.

[@gt-tv3gb]

Jake is a great teacher. Started following you on KZbin. I'm starting out in photography, and feel I can take beautiful glamour shots with equipment that is within my means.

[@tyanttaylor60]

Ladies and gentlemen you are watching a master at work 👍🏽💕💕👍🏽

[@alenlenia]

No we are not!

[@markwang77]

Jake, you are one of the best lighting educators out there - love how you clearly explain the purpose of each step as you build your setup.

[@JakeHicksPhotography]

Thanks Mark, very kind words indeed :) Glad you liked the video.

[@TonySooty]

i agree with you Markwang77. i have attended many workshops and watched loads of videos. Jake is only the second instructor i can truly say i trust. No ego's

[@JakeHicksPhotography]

Thank you Tony, very kind and certainly very much appreciated :)

[@markwang77]

...and you'll need to fly across the pond and teach a workshop in the US! at least come out to WPPI next year in Vegas - would love to meet you in person :)

[@JakeHicksPhotography]

markwang77 yeah I definitely need to make it to at least one of the US shows for sure :)

[@cjvpjackson9350]

Excellent demonstration, a wealth of knowledge I've just received from this shoot. Thank you!!!

[@josephchan4198]

Love the pictures and instruction on taking better pictures with strobes. Hope to see more videos.

[@markleethephotographer]

Beautiful work building the shot one light/mod at a time. Wonderfully done.

[@ajaxrodriguez8956]

Jake Hicks is an amazing photographer! This is a great video!

[@EdwardKilner]

So glad I found your channel. Watched 2 videos, both highly informative. Held my interest right to the end.

[@GrandmasterOrange]

Brilliant application of lighting and gels. The addition of the Lee Soft Filter puts the image over the top! Congrats on an excellent training video!

[@falgunishah2067]

Very well explained that registered in my mind. New for me was creating flare with Lee soft filter.

[@andrefelixstudio2833]

Great video with super production. Fabulous lot of smashing information!

[@davidserrano3601]

[@TonySooty]

[@1264-t4y]

fantastic!

[@bongkem2723]

great lighting & gel tutorial, thanks a lot !

[@victorygah]

A very useful video. Thanks a lot for share your experience.

[@951rcguy]

Can someone tell me exactly which filter I can buy to get these effects? The links under video are not helping. I have a 100mm (4") square filter holder.

[@Stealt707]

Shutter speed does affect the background exposure, so you are not going to get the same look at 1/60 sec and 1/400 sec as you mentioned in the video!

[@95TurboSol]

So on this setup you would do a front facing softbox then have the color lights on the sides?

[@Theiphone809]

Really good video, makes me want to be a pro in photography in the future. I’m new in photography by the way!! :)

[@julienvasquezphotographyll8900]

Beautiful work!!

[@brianasealy6257]

Wow that was an awesome video, I loved it!!! :)

[@rickythao3013]

amazing work Jake!

[@marinadorthez9612]

Anyone know what beauty dish this is? aka size/product?

[@zrowedaartistviews2278]

Amazing video I wish you would’ve showed the sooc instead of the edits

[@stheth]

Love this. Thanks for the ideas.

[@smdvisionphotography]

Everyone below that enjoyed his style of teachin should invest in his courses. It's worth it.

[@ifedolapogcmedia3038]

BEAUTIFUL...LOVELY SET UP....CUTE MODEL.....I LEARNT A LOT.

[@finnlabel]

Thanks for the tutorial. What is the mount used for the second light at the bottom? Can you provide link please?

[@adebrian1737]

Nice shots mate. I wish you could tell us the flash power used on your strobes or flash

[@rockabrilia]

Love the setup and I learned a lot. Love the video and what background music is this?

[@john3Lee]

Excellent presentation- Thanks :)

[@aceentertainmnt9249]

Oh I thought this actually had to do with home photography, like sitting on a couch & reading etc.

[@andrea.arcidiacona]

It seems lee filters do not produce the soft ones anymore. Am I right?

[@MazharAliz]

I have searched the Internet and couldn't find them. If you do, please share the info.

[@martafinogenow728]

what kind of constant light lamps did you use for the gel

[@lowredphoto]

Loved this thanks. Can you tell me what light/modifier you used for the hair please.

[@pyroBlastM]

Can I ask where can I get these soft filter?

[@waynelewis3449]

Hi Jake great video, can you add a link for the soft filter please

[@MRNYCBX718]

Beginner question: are these pictures in the video edited at all?

[@linusfotograf]

Greatly helpful!

[@marcknight1975]

Are the images retouched??...looks to good to be sooc...

[@veselinvasilev9362]

[@fangli]

Superb portrait, subscribing

[@kobby294]

Beautiful model. I like her.

[@lisayoung2464]

[@shadyninja1]

How do you edit these pictures

[@ammarselo]

I'm trying to buy a Lee soft filter, but I'm NOT finding it anywhere online! The link that is below the video directs me to colored gels only. Please HELP!

@@Widlomaa thank you very much, i couldn´t find the filter but now, i´m going to buy it :D !

[@MazharAliz]

Can you share the link to buy soft filters?

[@danish8003]

Great tutorial. And beautiful model!

[@ashleyartsco]

What lens are you using for this photo shoot? Lovely shots!

[@paulallan2754]

Well done!

[@sarithanageshp8312]

excellent, I like it a lot

[@truthxbl]

Jumped here from the phoblographer... While this info is all dead accurate and going to put a lot of folks on the right path, this jumps right out of the realm of "home lighting" really early on for the majority of hobby shooters.

[@benjaminrennicke]

I like the light at 7:41

[@naomiwipert4749]

what is the attachment you used to affix the fill light to the stand?

[@MrBluesfly]

Amazing skills and talent i really enjoy the video with Jake,wish for more and bigger in duration to come.In Greece is not that easy to find the full range of Lee products.I had to buy all my glass ND and grads from e-shop of a store in England and still the final price was better than here,not that big problem because you know what you get and what to do whit this filter,that's not my point.My point is that with gels i wish to take a more closer look because of so many tones and numbers so to decide depend on your wallet. I guess Filter Packs is a wise choice! My best regards

[@jackieconnell7183]

if i use the big stopper and little stopper together will that give me a super stopper and if so do i use the chart for the super stopper

[@shadyninja1]

May I ask, what lens where you using for the first two minutes.

[@maethel9572]

Im going to try this! 😀☺☺👌

[@scottedwards5191]

brilliant!

[@andrewsarun550]

Thanks u so much sir

[@risbill1]

Are there not any US distributors for these filter packs? I hate to pay almost as much for shipping as the cost of the filters.

[@jasonbodden8816]

I really liked this vid. Thank you so much, bud.

[@rken100]

Nice vid subbed

[@do-or-die5822]

What is the attachment to fix the fill light on the stand?

[@donbodat]

I concur with Grandmaster

[@diactkehinde9464]

thanks Hicks

[@RyanJAO]

tanks for the video ~

[@raduga3733]

We buy expensive cameras to get sharp images, then we put a filter on them to blur the image)

[@MegaRay68]

What lens are you using? looks like a wide angle one that goes all the way up to 2.8 or so?

[@MonroesArtStudio]

awesome vid

[@manoharmgr8235]

Super sir

[@MichaelUgwuzor]

Which camera is he using??

[@schwantzy180]

Where can you get those filters?

[@mrmungabunga6200]

[@NafisAhmed73]

[@jessestarks3128]

Nice work; who is the gorgeous model he worked with?

[@raphduck3558]

Michael Jackson

[@matthewcheung5136]

Model’s IG?

[@bartabz2199]

Are these images retouched for the video @JakeHicks?

[@MRNYCBX718]

I have the same question

[@FrankNazario]

Sbayo9 She looks amazing! :) I was looking to see if she had an instagram or twitter account they don't mention it anywhere... :( not good.

[@bartabz2199]

Follow the photographer, not the live mannequin you perv. lol

[@ot7withsugaprob]

Wow

[@avijitdas-wh9yb]

Can you please share your EXIF details and gadget details?

[@dankan1982]

Gabriella Grigo

[@zaf9834]

Everything nice i bet the model didnt come cheap.

[@flyoverfredusa]

great video but that's a lot of expensive gear - hardly lighting at home for most

[@emko333]

godox expensive? ahah check professional gear then it really does get expensive

[@giselleanddarekgrzesiak3294]

Lovely and very informative video, too much nostril from the model for my liking though...

[@benjamina.akwara6825]

what light do you use? name and model pls

[@gusnwanya]

I think he uses bowens. But the make and model shouldn't matter

[@englishbars]

model looks like that selling sunset girl...but shorter

[@petrub27]

use a lightmeter

[@gusnwanya]

Explain please?

[@alenlenia]

the model is Creepy

[@EarthlyFallanWisdom]

Shorten the video. It’s too much talking, you could talk while doing what your talking about.
