What I learned over the years is that sometimes your failed work could be your greatest masterpiece when someone else looks at it. Great video Irene! 🙂

@crusitarodriguez3223 2 года назад

Really love when big photographers show that they are not perfect they have times when they aren’t satisfied with their shoot and have troubles or obstacles they learned from. It reminds me everyone makes mistakes but that doesn’t make you not good! So a big thank you for this reminder!

@TheGoldenPlanet2099 2 года назад

97% of your fans are not Pro and the mistakes that you are considering are not mistakes in their opinions. the way you are evaluating things are different from most of us because you are a Pro so share like those stunning videos. they are very useful for us.

@erwinslootweg7938 2 года назад

Hello Irene! a lot of heat gets lost through the bottom/ground of the swimmingpool. if you can either insulate or reflect back the heat (which is sort of the same) the water stays warmer a lot easier. A cheap easy and very effective way is to put something reflective under it, like for example those covers you can put on your car windscreen when it gets cold outside, or the reflective stuff you can use under flooring in your house. most reflective side up, always. Thanks for the video!

@lensman5762 2 года назад

I don't see these as failures at all, on the contrary you overcame the difficulties and produced some stunning work. And I don't usually give compliments lightly.

@Bigricky06 2 года назад

I hope that this video was a prank from Irene. You got to be kidding me. All these gorgeous/beautiful pictures do not look like mistakes to me at all Irene. They are splendid.

@tomschram1804 2 года назад

Irene, even on a bad day your work (for lack of better words) looks beautiful. I’d love to capture art the way you do. I just keep watching your videos and practice, practice, and practice. Thank you so very much for sharing your inspiring talent for all the world to see.

@angelicboudoir98 2 года назад

For the hot water in the pool, you may be able to fill directly from your hot water heater depending on how far away it is. Hot water heaters have a water spigot that you can attach a garden hose to. This is a design feature that allows the tank to be drained for repairs, but you could also use this to fill the pool up if you had a hose that reached.

@Berlinerundso 2 года назад

@vikkizza 2 года назад

Thanks so much for the honesty and to be fair you still got so many brilliant images in the end! Dont be afraid to post them as you are your own worst self critic where everyone else will absolutely love them. The editing in the painter style shoot was so beautiful!!

@gerihenry2261 2 года назад

Ohmigosh, Irene, thank you so much for sharing this video, it's so helpful. This is exactly the kind of photography I LOVE to do, and yes, I've definitely had those days of "shoot, I'm not in love with what I'm doing" and end up not using it or reshooting, but it's just great to know that other photographers feel the same sometimes, no matter the success of the photographer. And I always complain that my place isn't big enough, or I don't have my own indoor studio, but then I see the space you have and how you make it work and how beautiful your images turn out and it makes me want to just do it anyway. Love it, thank you so much, you are truly inspiring!

@EdwardKilner 2 года назад

You improve every year. Three stunning models, but your sister absolutely stole the show. Of course, she usually does. I liked the fancy set and loved the simple set. Can’t say what made it so great except the dynamic between you two is exceptional. It seems a long time some we saw her, but this made it worth the wait. Thanks.

@TalkItAllShow Год назад

Yes, I agree. It was a little too many props on the shoot with your sister. I absolutely loved the simple portrait of her though. I feel like she has the best eyes for these old-fashioned looking shots, so pretty! I also use my sister for a lot of my shoots as well, she’s always down for whatever idea I have lol

@leonardrodgers8579 2 года назад

Subscribed because your work is great and your not afraid to show your flaws..... true artist!

@gregs2466 2 года назад

I loved the shoot with your sister, it was perfect, even when you thought you had too many props; you are right to go less! I would love to see your last shoot in a proper size dress, and I think you were right on your comments about your first model. I could certainly where you were going with your story with her. Would be interesting to see you try again with her after you make sure the water is more comfortable. As usual, great job and you are very talented!

@melindawolfUS Год назад

Beautiful work, by the way. I just discovered you yesterday and your work is lovely. If these are your least favorite, wow! They're still cover-worthy

@largefamilyruralliving7434 2 года назад

We fill a pool with an adapter on the sink faucet and run out the window to have warm water to fill it. To keep it warm- rocks in the oven? Souvide immersion machine? Beautiful photos, i think the tomatoes out of the shot would've made it just fine. Your photography is so different than what I have done, but I learn so much watching these.

@JamesBond-uq7si 2 года назад

This photoshoot is beautiful, one of my favourites from the work that you've done over the years. I think it feels like a failure because it's a bit different to what you or anyone else expect usually from your work. Always a pleasure to see your videos.

I have to say I LOVE the photos of Oryssa, even with the heaps of props. Even if you think it was too much, I think you set it up really well 😊

@AMBAMTV 2 года назад

Your over thinking it! All of them came out amazing! It’s so easy to see you work and think it’s not the best. But dang girl, all of those sessions were so unique and edgy!

@CarlosDeMarte 2 года назад

You are my source of inspiration, thanks! 💚

@melindawolfUS Год назад

As a classically trained oil painter, one trick we use when we have a busy still life+ figures is to allow the foreground to have less detail and less light. Fewer, bigger brushstrokes leaving soft edges work for me but Photoshop blur and Burn/vignette gradient can work for you to a similar effect. You could also take some items off the table or bring them all close together, leaving more of the table exposed for visual rest

@willsimpsonphoto 2 года назад

definitely agree on the pops, just a little overwhelming but overall the shot was amazing! Most of them were amazing. But trial and error is the best way to learn! Great Video

Thanks for sharing your struggles! I can relate to everything you said but growth is not possible without a few learning lessons along the way. I think you are your own worst critic because your images are all so very beautiful! And I love the one of the girl dreaming of her boyfriend instead of preparing the soup. Now I’m craving soup😂😘

@wy4553 2 года назад

I really love the photoshoot you did with your sister, including the table set up. I already like how it looks but I think it could be improved even more with just a few tiny adjustments--the large water jug is probably what draws more of the attention since it's so shiny and light-colored--so maybe just remove that completely or in post you can darken it and remove the shine. Another thing you can try is moving the veggies and table cloth closer to the camera. Right now there's a lot of negative space at the bottom of the photo while the veggies are a bit too close to the model (esp. the squash), making it look a bit cluttered. I think moving them out a bit will help the entire image "breathe" and you won't feel like they're taking the attention away from the model.

@IreneRudnyk 2 года назад

Yes! You are so correct , the jug is too big and draws to much attention to it, I’ll try to re-do it :)

@wy4553 2 года назад

@karenbonar7866 2 года назад

Suggestion for warming the water - water bed heated pad .... I would get one specifically for water beds, so you know it won't mess up the plastic/under side of your pool ... but we had waterbeds growing up, and there is a heating pad made specifically to go UNDER them to keep the water warm. It might take a few days to get up to the desired temperature. Good luck! :) Keep making videos!!!!!

@silverliningsstudio 2 года назад

So funny how we sometimes treat our "not so great" shoots while the images are still very very nice! Good to know I am not the only one! About your painterly shoot.. I do a lot of painterly kind of shoots and I think what might help is to make sure the light doesn't hit the props as much. There where some shiny elements, like the vase and such, that caught a lot of light. You can also shop the shine out a bit and darken the bottom a little. Also an octabox gives harder light than for example a deep white umbrella with a black outside. They props won't reflect as much light. But honestly I still like it anyway what you did. 😅😊

For hot water, try looking at portable, propane water heaters. They're made for car-camping and work pretty well.

@perilthecat 2 года назад

Other people have probably mentioned this, but put Mylar space blankets (like you’d find in an automotive emergency kit) under the pool, and you should be able to get small pool heater on Amazon.

@keeylepimienta8874 2 года назад

Happy New Year 🎊 Love your work as always and your whole creative process, I was just curious how do you explain to your model that the outcome wasn’t to your liking. I am folio building at the moment and I have mode calls, I usually get what I am looking for but I get so worried if I don’t and basically my model waisted her time. How do you handle that if the model isn’t getting paid for her time, 😃

@Condition_svk 2 года назад

Great video :) we all need to learn our lessons but it's super important to know that everyone is a human :) but btw from my point of view all of theese went great at the end :) one good picture per photoshoot and still can consider win I guess :)

@mlleioana 2 года назад

@Seitenwerk 2 года назад

There are pool heaters you could buy, which are basically small pumps which either heat via electric or via Solar panels. For your use case a small electric version would be perfect to heat the water and keep it warm until everyone’s ready

@reetcaur5837 2 года назад

@capntimber7982 2 года назад

I think the shoot with your sister was good. Maybe would have liked to see a little wider shot including just a little more of the table giving the illusion or more space and adding to the mood of the shot, but that’s just my thoughts. I have found that some of my shots that I’ve disliked the most are somebody else’s favourites. Especially true when I show them to other artists

@weltonarruda1032 2 года назад

Love it 😊

@ZootusSuitus 2 года назад

This is very encouraging to see and thank you for that! Kinda makes me a little happier that not all of my shoots are as perfect as I want... Or at all... Now I don't know much - hence why I've been watching your videos to learn - but could it be that the scene with your sister and the soup was not elaborate enough? It wasn't quite a scene as there was blank space on the table and, in particular, the wall that somewhat broke the illusion. The stripped back shots, however, were cracking because there were no other distracting elements. Again, thank you for posting these videos! Well, all of them.

@anh_nguyen21 2 года назад

not at all related to the photos, but the dog walking around in the background in the house was so cute 🥺

@rhondamoore9842 2 года назад

I think you had the right idea on the session with your sister. It may not necessarily be the number of items, but the scale. The pitcher was way too large and too white, and competed with your subject. Perhaps a smaller, darker pitcher, or even a bowl instead (and it could have held some of the tomatoes) would have worked. It’s wonderful that you shared your “failures” (which really weren’t), to show the process of working through your setups. You are very kind to show both your very best work, and what you consider to be your less than stellar images!

@NickDelDuca 2 года назад

I agree about too much stuff in the frame in shoot with your sister. The simple portraits were fantastic though. More often than not when I go out there ends up being something wrong that I don't notice till editing. I'm really bad at noticing things during the shoot. Sometimes it's an issue with an outfit, something weird the model is doing with their face or hands, something distracting in the background, something looks awkward with the pose etc.

@midwest8six607 2 года назад

The classic look photo. Only thing to me. Was the squash. It felt in the way and distracted me from the model. Outside of that. I loved it

@odarbysvergaradeltoro5663 2 года назад

The only thing that works for me to make the pool warmer is leaving it with the water tree consecutive hot days on the direct Sun 🌞. I will love to have a way to adapt a hose from inside the hause but it doesn't work with at all with the design of my tap 😕 maybe can work for yours.

All of your models have stunning faces. For the third picture try putting the stays that you had on your sister over the large dress. Also try pinning the sleeves. Keep the items in the second picture just use fewer. The items made a beautiful still life without any model!

@_photoruns 2 года назад

you can use water heater for aquarium to keep the water warm, use 3-5 pcs to keep warm, search for the the heater not using the glasses, so it will not easy to broke
