This video is 100% ad for Luminar, portrait photography and whole topic just happened to fit perfectly to topic lol

@UrbaneVisions 3 месяца назад

And I must say, he tastefully incorporated the sponsor. It truly compliments the process of what he's teaching and might be one of the best ad integrations I've seen in a video.

It's good to see the use of entry level gear and smaller aperture used for street portrait photography. Understanding composition and how to use natural light goes a long way. Thank you.

The "slim down" complaint. It's just subjective. Also, he's showing what you can do in the software. It doesn't mean "you" have to do it.

@Harvester88 2 месяца назад

Same, I just wanna bring my camera and the lenses, carrying a tripod and other stuff etc just never been my thing. I was considering getting a hot shoe flash at least just in case but as I’ve never used one before, not sure what to look for in one.

@UrbaneVisions 2 месяца назад

@@Harvester88 Definitely invest in a good hot shoe flash. I've never used the Godox V100 (i think that's the model) but I've heard great things. As a Sony shooter, I used the HVL-60RM on a shot and really liked the results. It's a Sony flash that works well with it.

@TwoTimesRmedia 3 месяца назад

Maybe he slimmed her down due to distortion from the lens causing her to look differently than she does naturally. I don't know. I'm just saying, I know lenses can have that effect .

@dominicpascal5512 3 месяца назад

@@TwoTimesRmedia he's using a 50mm lens, there is no distorsion. the reason he does it is to show off the feature of the sponsor's software, not because it was necessary. leaves a sour taste IMHO

@iguanaman08 3 месяца назад

Always love your photos Manny. Your portraits are the best I've seen. I'm not a fan of Luminar though. Some of the edits look like what the Google Pixel phones do. Artificial and over processed. Others may like this though. So I can understand there's a market for it.

@marcomark8 Месяц назад

Really a great video for all photographers but especially for those how haven't purchased lighting equipment yet. The tip I like best is using a background that is also in the shade or that has the same exposure value as the face. Nice video.

@KOSglory 2 месяца назад

fantastic video! I feel like this is my greatest struggle in and insecurity with my photography. This video had my mind going, thinking of ideas and locations to practice. Thank you for sharing these great tips.

@Harvester88 2 месяца назад

I thought this was a pretty cool video. He used the software to enhance his own work and it wasn’t overdone. All the edits were tasteful, even the “slimming” I’m seeing issues with in the comments was so subtle that if he didn’t tell you he used it, you probably wouldn’t know. Great video !

@WilliamBurdine 2 месяца назад

I feel this is more of a budget gear shoot, I mean an R8 and nifty 50, but getting back to portrait photography... probably better to show off composition in camera with available lighting...but had to wait to see the POST technique to see this... using the sponsor instead of in camera. You Nailed the time of day issue, but a good reflector instead of lights could have been a great addition.

@jaym5938 2 месяца назад

Just 'say no' to Luminar. It will cheapen your images. 4:50 up-lighting is generally unattractive, no matter how much editing you use. Hard light isn't 'tough.' Besides, you were mostly in the shade.

The face and body slimming … like why? So f*cked

@mroblige1018 3 месяца назад

If you can't manipulate harsh noon lighting without a ND filter you don't know what you're doing. Notice manny didn't need one right? He struggled a bit because the model was too pasty had he went with a model with darker skin the light would've been absorbed better instead of bounced back into the lens. Darker skin bmodels always make for better portraits
