Thanks so much for your education! I have white and black seamless and want to add gray and a skin tone. Which would you recommend? I've heard you speak of Fashion Gray. And for the skin tone, which of Mocha, Pecan, Beige, Egg Nog? Appreciate your input!
Fashion Gray is my go-to and most versatile. I also use Thunder Gray often as well. For skin tones I typically use their general 'beige' but it largely depends on what I'm shooting. I have a variety of them for that reason.
Appreciate you and your videos. Does it matter if the rim light touches the nose during portraits and headshots? It doesn't bother me personally but ive heard people say otherwise.
great stuff - is that a fan on the floor in gret - ive been struggling to find a decent powerful fan thats not huge and bulky or costs the price of a holdiday to the carribean
Excellent. As ever, the "trick" is knowing what look you're after and why. The lighting and other tech aspects fall into line from there. For whatever reason it remains unsaid but I imagine a basic shot list is part of any "recipe."
Nice, detail oriented presentation.. Even if I seen this in specific amount of time, im still more than pleased to see and enjoy in all this set ups, approach and expressions.. Great job anyway!
Hi Lindsay, a question: I use the RF 24-105 F4L as my main studio lens as well (RF 50mm 1.2 and RF 135mm 1.8 for outside the studio setting). What would you say is the widest you are comfortable with for shooting a full body shot, without having too much distortion in the body? I have a lot of space to back up at the moment, so I can even shoot full body at 135mm, but my near-future home studio will be a lot smaller...
It is hard to say, but I think I am usually around 50-63mm but I definitely have some purposefully dramatic shots much wider. Check the 15-35mm wide angle video I did last year. Id say probably usually around 35mm as widest
Thanks Adorama! Thanks Lindsey Adler. I read your book on posing guide. It was fantastic. You're a great impact to the industry ma. Can't wait to meet you in person.
I'm addicted to your tutorials! Your presentation style makes it so enjoyable to watch. I have improved my photography skills in all areas. I've taking several online courses that were not worth the time or money . Thank you Lindsay!!
