[@BandH]

Which of these do you prefer to shoot: headshots or cityscapes? 👇

[@Devdattab]

Headshots. It has a far smaller carbon print!

[@jakubstrumillo]

Headshots, I'm bad at building cities

[@skyace888]

I like them both but will say citiscapes

[@jakubstrumillo]

Bonkers and amazing! I feel entertained! Thank You B&H for creating that videos with Peter

[@BandH]

We love working with Peter. Thanks for watching!

[@samwashington6680]

To be honest, I think all credit goes to model. She is a pro and each photo has pose and she looks great in all of them

[@pw4007]

B&H and Peter Hurley are the absolute best!

[@BandH]

That's why we keep inviting him back!

[@fcoker73]

[@josephchan4198]

Great teacher. It good to see other famous instructors teach to get ideas.

[@thesolstephens]

i want to say that Mr Hurley has been a real inspiration

[@brucelorie7665]

Brilliant stuff. I’m about to join the PH Crew.

[@jakubstrumillo]

Do it! It changed my life.

[@katiewarnke3446]

You will not regret it

[@bala1000mina]

Thank you so much for the very informative video on headshot photography!

[@joeep46]

Peter, you are the coolest person in the city. To take your in-person workshop shop is on my bucket list.

[@peterlodder2100]

@peterhurley which tripod do you use?

[@arbull7264]

That was a very good learning curve!

[@AllenRReid]

Why does Peter prefer a focal length at 92mm? I may have missed his explanation.

[@joeep46]

He said it makes the person's face look most natural as far as features. The nose , the width. I tested this . I used a 20mm, 30mm and 50mm . My 85mm looks the best.

Great Video!!

[@AMPUK]

Another great vid from your team and this one simply shows why Peter is the best. Natalie -- either put the lens hood on properly or take it of - lazily leaving it on reversed is a very very bad example -- as is supporting a 70-200 on a tripod from the camera and not a lens foot. Peter's little tricks to challenge and use humour to get "something" in the eyes of his subjects. SOOOO many models eyes are dead. 100% with peter on shooting in bright light to shrink the pupil (black space). 92mm from what 7-8' (too far away in my view for a headshot), 5600k, jam your forehead forward, swintch, lift the chin, drop the closest shoulder to emphasise the jawline, find the better side, light 10' from the wall and 3-4' from the subject - so the wall is ~16% as bright as the subject Big debate in my world on the size of the catchlight in the eye -- "what is that large donut" -vs- ...... Ring flash, Beauty dish, large para all provide a ring, 4 panel and clamshell provide hard edged reflection, Peter's 3 speedlight/Led solution a triangle. Classic clamshell top and bottom and then ultra large softboxes or heavily diffused lights almost no distinct reflection -- all worth exploring. Even bigger debate -- ultra shallow (tedious) DOF -vs- appropriate DOF and providing enough DOF to enable the viewer to understand "where" the shot was taken -- otherwise one might as well be inside a studio.

@BandH Is the Westcott Joel Grimes beauty dish featured in this video with a white interior or silver interior? Thanks!

[@BandH]

The one they are using in this video has the silver interior.

[@OlgaGinzburg]

@@BandH Thanks so much for letting me know!

[@jsavak99]

How do you deal with the light equipment getting in frame ??

[@BandH]

Peter will often digitally remove the light in post production.

[@fitzucf]

This is perfect for my Photo 1 students. Would love to see her teach Peter in the helicopter.

[@BandH]

Stay tuned for part 2 👀

[@RafaelOrtizPhotography]

Ha! Misshattan... she's cute and that NY attitude 😍

[@jsavak99]

You're using Capture 1??

[@BandH]

Yes, they are using Capture One.

[@johnclay7644]

good informative video.

[@skyace888]

Thanks for this. I just picked up a couple FJ200s and am getting into strobe photography. All about experimentation.

[@BandH]

That's great! Glad we can help you get inspired.

[@brsaravia]

Thank you B&H

[@BandH]

[@alangrate5718]

[@Devdattab]

Thanks B&H for this. It's a bit basic though. I expected way more useful content when I read Peter's name. Also Natalie, please stop saying you are nervous again and again atleast in the future videos.
