Hello Serge, i love your content, i watch every single video of yours and it helped me improve my skills a looot, i would kindly ask you to check some of my photos that i uploaded in your website and maybe you can tell me a quick review, thank you so much and keep it up
super tuto I missed it before. just see harcourt portraits in a small studio close to my house and searched on Google. it is amazing how your under exposed pictures became amazing after some "serge" retouching. you should update this tuto perhaps with different flashes like ad200pro or ad400pro and, i think, an additional flash on hairs because they are too dark.
Serge, i have 2 of those flashes and trigger for canon but now i shoot with sony and can't find a trigger for my yongnuo flashes. I clicked the link of your gear and said this trigger is for canon but i think i see you're shooting with a sony. Can you tell me what trigger for sony i can use for the yongnuo flashes
Im late seeing this great session by 4 years! Im a speedlite guy due to size, weight, budget and storage as well as the challenge of making great shots from budget gear in a small home studio. Im a big fan of old hollywwood and film noir and the Harcourt approaches - I even bough a set of cheapy fresnel lenses but they are small and not quite the same look as the hollywood key light but ok as hairlights. Great to see your session here as further reference using speedlites, grids and snoots to achieve a similar flavour !
@@SergeRamelliPhotography lol, okay... so you're using 2 "snoops" (lol) in this video? One on the 1st flash and another on the 2nd flash? I'm interested in the back circle that you're creating with the 2nd flash.
With all due respect, it wasn't that impressive in my opinion. Why not use a natural light source and use an inexpensive light reflector for maybe $15? The image quality itself is great, but the lighting was not very 'interesting'.
My interest is in the attempt to recreate glamour lighting from the old days - you accomplished this well with minimal lighting equipment. There are multiple ways to get these effects, more and less expensive, but I am appreciative of the genre focus of your video. Thanks!
The Yongnuo Flashes got the best price/performance ratio. you get€ 3 flashes & a flash controler (shown in the video) for around 200€. I use them for nearly everything. But light modifiers for speedlights are, sometimes, very expensive! The magmod kit costs aren't cheap! (snoot around 60€, grid is around 40€). Maybe take a look at Godox & Yongnuo & decide, what fit's better to you. Canon, Nikon, Nissin, Metz & so on are great flashes, but very expensive (200€ each).
