Two Speedlight Studio Portraits, Part 2

[@sergeantcrow]

Excellent ! Thank you very much Joe and Kenda ....

[@mtcrun]

Is there a reason for choosing the silver reflector vs. a white?

[@pryingi]

Hey Joe, First, thanks for the video series. It's more down-to-earth than most I see. I really appreciate your style and teaching ability. When you transitioned the red to the background, did you just switch the aim or did you move it behind the model? Thanks

[@JoeBradyPhotography]

I did a bit of both - changed the aim and moved it more behind the model!

[@rajabali8961]

Excellent sir how far is red flash from back ground

[@porkbeans2335]

You mentioned F!1 in the portion where you used the reflector but in the photos you post after shots it says F11 with shutter speed of 160. Did you drop down to F10 to make exposure brighter due to the reflector and only one light on the subject?

[@EdwardKilner]

Would love you to repeat the gel shots using TTL, to see what happens and get your advice.

[@dj.qb91]

So what if you don’t have a light metre?

[@danvonerlea]

You can use a V flat instead of the fill light

[@JoeBradyPhotography]

That is of course an option. But using a fill light gives you so much more control with both the light pattern, direction and brightness.

[@dylanvializ112]

Hey Joe may I ask what kind of bracket you use to hold a speedlite?

[@danijeljelicic]

How come your so High on ISO and low on shutterspeed? Great video by the way!! :)

[@damionrowe9763]

Can I use continuous light from the softbox?

[@andersistbesser]

Of course

[@manoharmgr8235]

Super

[@FrankNazario]

Just perception... i dont know if the studio is a small one but i feel the series you where hovering over her a bit to close... just my 2 cents. I know for a FACT that if I had a first time client and I was so close to her she would definitively feel uncomfortable.

[@JoeBradyPhotography]

You're right Frank - tiny studio with not a lot of room to move around with both flashes and studio video lights. That said, I've been working with Kendra for years and we're very comfortable with each other - on top of that, her mom comes to shoots to help out, so we all work as a team. If the subject was a client, I would definitely provide more room and would not have to worry about the studio video lighting!

[@FrankNazario]

@@JoeBradyPhotography I've been following your work since Kelby ... Many if the things I do specially the ttl stuff I applied from u...and subscribed for a long time... It was just an observation.

[@JoeBradyPhotography]

No worries Frank! I appreciate your comments and always want to be aware of potential issues that could be construed the wrong way. I thank you for taking the time to share your observations.

[@MountainKing626]

Don't be a creeper Frank. Just because you have pervy tendencies doesn't mean everyone does

[@FrankNazario]

@@MountainKing626 LOL! I don't ... Funny though :)

[@willrevellet8651]

Like .

[@danvonerlea]

Why f 10 ?

[@JoeBradyPhotography]

Why not? I could have adjusted the power of the lights, but since I wanted at least f8 to keep everything in focus, going up to f/10 (which is only 2/3rds of a stop) simply provided a bit more wiggle room!

[@computerjantje]

photos with the girl over 12 years old putting their lips like in 3:28 should be punished with life long ban from photography and the photographer as well. God it looks so much like an insecure 12 year old making a selfie.

[@andersistbesser]

Nice phantasies you got..😁😂
