Can You Shoot Portrait /Fashion On A Budget?

One of the main criticisms Peter often receives is that it’s ‘easy’ and 'alright' for him because he has all this expensive gear and a massive studio which is why he can achieve the high standard of photography that he shares. We have repeatedly expressed & shown many times that is absolutely not about the gear, we still are always asked to please show how it's possible to get amazing photos on a budget. Peter purchased a $400 camera body & is using a $200 lens and is just shooting on the streets of the suburbs - you'll be amazed as what he can still create! At the end of the day though, Peter does still love his toys and strongly believes the gear is to make the photographer feel better.

@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer sorry to hijack this thread but I couldn’t work out how to comment to you directly Peter. My apologies. Can I just confirm with you that the a6000 is APS-C sensor and the 50mm would be roughly equivalent of around 80mm maybe? Or is this different because it’s mirrorless? I know the equivalence changed depending on sensor size etc, but I was wondering if I could get similar results with my 85mm on my R6 or would it look completely different? I have a 50 as well but it’s 1.4 and I would love to have a go at “replicating” this look but not sure if I have the correct combo of sensor size and lens. I adore what you did with RaRa in this video, it’s a look I’ve been striving to get for a while and failing somewhat so I am pretty sure it’s my lens and sensor combo. Any thoughts? Sorry for the long winded question

Ok, I got the point - it's easy to get great results when you have a gorgeous model to work with! 🙃 In all seriousness though, thanks a lot for the channel (thanks to yt algorithms I've been watching your videos for the past few days almost nonstop) and many, many absolutely invaluable tips! I've been into photography for years but mostly as an enthusiast. And portraits is that one genre that has always been very attractive to me but I guess I lack the necessary psychology component within my character. Although when occasionally some friends ask me for a shoot they usually are happy with the results but I don't seem to be able to work in the same way with not so close people. Still your channel is a treasury for tips and techniques! Even if I never use them. 😆 And all your models are great indeed! Everyone I've seen on this channel so far seems to be such a great human being! That's a big part of what makes it so enjoyable to watch all the videos. Thanks once again!

RaRa looked superb. Never seen her look better. Nice shots with the gear you used, because you used it with care and knowledge. Back when everyone had non-adjustable cameras, full sun would have meant she would look into the sun. Washed out, squinting- I’ve seen lots of those. And, old teachings like that take a while to die. You demonstrated how to do it right. How could you not? Thanks.

Cool I did a Graffiti alley shoot years ago with one of my first models that I worked with in my own studio, we met at the graffiti location (Toronto Subway line) I actually used my portable strobe for most of the shots. It was a fun shoot. love outdoor shoots. Love the shot with the van giving the white bounce light cool bonus

I was inspired to return to photography after binge-watching your channel during lockdown and bought an Alpha 6400 with 16-55mm kit lens. While I'd be the first to admit that it's not the sharpest or fastest of lenses, I still get some great pics. I like to photograph parades/galas/protests etc and there are always loads of guys with lenses the size of their thighs and top of the range cameras comparing gear. I get an almost pitying look and largely dismissed with my wee camera. Sadly, I doubt that the gear obsession will disappear any time soon. Thanks for your generosity with your knowledge and experience, Peter, I've learned so much about using light and it's improved my photos enormously. Your passion for photography is infectious.

This video is a perfect example of why I like your stuff the best! You do some shots on the street which were good, but I’m kinda like meh he needs to move to a more contrasting background. Bam your in the alley in front of the fence. Thinking that was a good choice I’m like cool, then I was not loving the shots and Bam you move in front of the roll up door! You ask Ra Ra to move over and before I could say...what is it that you don’t like behind, you say...seeing some lights through the door that I don’t like lol! Mind reader! Also there are very few RU-vidrs that have the confidence to show the process of what isn’t working evolving into what does. That is more helpful and confidence boosting to a guy like me than seeing a photographer walk out and nail the shot on the first try! Thank you Peter, Bec, Ra Ra and the whole team!

Another great video. As always. You are spot on that you don't need a huge budget to get good kit. I like buying low shutter count used cameras. There are tons of bargains out there. I got a D700 with under 3000 shutter count a couple years ago for well under 500$ and it looks brand new. That was their flagship at one time and still a great camera for me. :) Have an awesome week guys! Be safe and be well!

As expected, another great video, LOVE Becs glasses. I have a camera with very similar specs and I agree it does very nice captures. I find that remains fact as long as I use good lenses. Pro cameras do have features that make your work easier and more easily repeatable, not necessarily better. As an output professional I would add this caveat, the 24MP camera will produce archival quality inkjet prints at 30" wide x 20" high, or 15" wide x 10" high at high quality print at native resolution. As long as your destination fits those parameters you're good to go.

Great video. Love the images. Ra Ra is quite a talent. Amazing eyes. I believe great photographers are like great athletes. Sure, it's a pleasure to have the best gear. But the athlete determines the performance, not the gear. Same goes with the photographer. Training, education and practice are more important than the gear. That message is often lost as the industry is always promising to improve your photography if only you buy the new, amazing, game changing fill in the blank camera. And all of the lenses. And all of the lights.

I really like these videos. Sipping on my kafe i learned everything is a light mod at some point in time. I tried cloning one of your setups yesterday. Scaling up is the easy part. tweaking it is the fun part. the only real challenge is how much you scale it and fitting it into the space. I'm still decluttering my shoot space so i put a monolight inside my front door and shot the talent on my porch. not nearly as pretty as your stuff but i got the chrome skin tone. Knowing where to put talent in the feather means i can repeat the results and get that tone anytime i want it. thanks oh and i did it on a 10 year old nikon with a 30 year old lens. hope i don't f-up processing the italian film shot.

Two best parts are when she is about five feet or so in front of the metal garage door standing with her legs a few feet apart and she commands or demands those shots--it was very good. And then the final ones sitting in the tall grass. Those were absolutely awesome, beautiful and se*y, subtle but all naturally artistic as a choice location. She makes it look like she is not fully aware that there is a camera there but slightly suspicious that there is. She at times gives an alluring gaze and then tilts her head and gaze slightly down in a somewhat mildly innocent and conciliatory way and then concedes silently that she likes it with some upper swaying and lifting her arms and using her hands to move her hair. If the shooting had continued she would have filled a catalog. ;)

Good idea for your video, and beautiful shots to prove that you can do a lot on budget equipment. However, I would say that you have chosen well balanced budget kit, and that may be one of keys for doing good, even excellent work on budget - buy reasonably priced, but well balanced camera/lens kit. From my experience, I had a high end pro level body and budget lens, and that was not a good idea. But moving to better lens, still relatively affordable, made a whole new world in my work.

Great Video! Look this: Canon is almost exclusively marketing their expensive RF series. The DSLR clientele seems to have forgotten them. What is the pleasant consequence? You can get the otherwise expensive pro bodies and lenses on the used market for a fraction of their original price, 6D or 5Dmk3 or EF 50 f1.2 and so on , and so you get top gear. Canon, keep up the good work. Greets

Interesting experience I like it. Twenty years ago, I also shot a girl lying in the grass on an expired slide film, with a $10 lens, and there was more romance and real emotions in this action than in super shots from the studio. A special charm was added by this color slide film, which sometimes gave unpredictable results without any special digital filters. Now it seems almost impossible to shoot five films in the field and wait a week for the slide to be developed. But then the weekend comes and we again go to the shooting .. How difficult, if compared with the modern process: I clicked, looked at the screen, clicked again. But something I deviated :) Labor of model is perfect.

@@PeterCoulsonPhotographer Now I rummaged in my drawer and found a package from ILFORD XP2 400 black & white, I think you definitely used Ilford. This XP2 isn't exactly monochrome, it's developed through the C41 process and has a lot of grain in the shadows. Once upon a time I doubted that digital cameras would be able to provide a dynamic range at the level of Ilford or at least Prophoto, not to mention slide films .. :) But soon we will be left even without a viewfinder in the camera, it seems. Wait and see..
