My favourite flambient video covering many great techniques. I especially like the idea of using 50:50 (or any other ratio) to get the ambience in the right ballpark, followed by layer duplication and masking to finish it off. I’ve used each technique separately but it never occurred to me to use both methods together. Thank you Nathan!

Fantastic video. Still struggling with my flambient. Going to practice more based on this video!

Amazing video as always! When it comes to the discolouration from flash like you show the fix for on that kitchen cabinet towards the end, I was super glad to see how you do that. I’m looking forward to trying out the same thing. So far my favourite way of handling it is by hitting shift + B twice to flip to the Color Replacement Brush, taking a colour pick from a “correct” part of the cabinet, and then just brushing over it with a lower tolerance so that it’ll barely (if any) affect anything else. Been working great so far but am interested to try your method

Thanks! Using layers will give you much more flexibility in the editing workflow. I cover these techniques in more detail in my advanced editing e-book, here's a link if you'd like to check that out: amzn.to/3mKWOsy

Thanks Nathan for another very helpful video! Can I ask what trigger do you use?
@NathanCoolPhoto3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Two types of triggers, two kinds of caveats, I break down that kind of stuff in the interiors e-book, here's a link if you'd like to check that out: amzn.to/3lEK3Ax

Nathan I have a situation where I am shooting a great room area with high ceilings, but just shooting the living room. If I do a ceiling bounce I will lose 1/2 of my light to the kitchen behind my shot into the living room. Is this a good time for a STU?
@NathanCoolPhoto3 жыл бұрын
Regarding questions on time: As I mentioned in the video it takes longer to explain a shot than to shoot and edit it. Time on-site was just a couple minutes and editing goes quickly using PS actions and LR presets, like I talk about in my books. Also, once lighting and exposure settings are established in this initial capture-it-all shot, the others, showing each space individually, go quick as settings don't need to be reestablished. Time though is money and, no matter what, it depends on what your market supports, which is something I address in my e-book on business techniques at amzn.to/3lzghwN and also in various videos including kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHSxfnmJhseGkK8 to where you should decide what level of effort -- and thus techniques -- to employ for various types of work.

No. I do think it would be worthwhile to invest in your business...get the right lights, make your job easier, and get ROI as a result. I'm not sure if you have my lighting guide but I really think it would help to understand flash power, setups, composites, and more. Here's a link if you'd like to check that out: amzn.to/3K6dGqS

From your books and videos I know that you are not one to use an iPad and wifi. I certainly understand as with my Sony camera and it's poor wifi and app.it's so time consuming. But, in the 9 years I've been shooting interiors I often get a problem with layers not aligning exactly no matter how careful I am touching the camera.
@NathanCoolPhoto3 жыл бұрын
Hi Alan, if you're having problems aligning images, then it might be your tripod and head. Look at a geared head, like the Benro, which should help. I rarely get alignment issues, and for those rare times that I do I have an action that aligns the layers.
@alanabley5253 жыл бұрын
@@NathanCoolPhoto Thank you for your reply. I use the Bento head and love it. Perhaps I should try a tripod that's a little heavier.
