This is GOLD! So much I never knew. Thank you!!!!
Bailey, this is super helpful and I learned a lot from you today. Thank you so much for making these videos!!
It was an amazing general guide! thanks for the tips and tricks :)
This is so helpful! thank you so much for your content ✨
Thank you so much for this content! Super helpful!! What lens do you usually use for your newborn sessions and what settings were most of these taken on (as far as aperture, ISO, and shutter speed)?
Hey McKenzie! I shoot with my 50mm 1.2 most of the time. In general my settings are at around 2.5 aperture, no less than 250 shutter speed and then ISO will vary the most depending on available lighy
Hi Bailey, can you recommend some online Lightroom learning course please? I’m a nut and would like to learn from the very basic first step. Thanks alot
When you are comparing the images during your culling how are you deleted the image you don't want? I always have to right click and select delete to remove the files.
If the image that I do not want is selected I simply just hit the 'delete' button on my keypad!
In the new Lightroom, is there a way to compare more than 2 photo? Letter n doesn’t work anymore
Hmm. What version of Lightroom are you running? I used my N shortcut today and it worked no problem. You have to be in develop mode to compare with it though!
Do you delete the pictures off the SD card?
After (and only after) the gallery has been delivered, and I have my raws and my final edits backed up on a hard drive I will reformat my SD cards!
Do you use photoshop? What editing actions do you do there?
Great question. I use photoshop for finer tune edits when needed (face swaps, generative fill, finer tune brushing or clone stamping)
@@HelloJudePhotography I'm just learning editing, it would be interesting to learn more about your editing skills, especially babies)
How many pictures you took in a shooting? And how many hours?
It varies session to session. Generally milestone sessions are around 30-45 minutes, families are around an hour, and newborns can be around 90 minutes. A lot of different factors goes into play when it comes to those two things- that is why i do have have times listed on my collections.
more siblings means more photos, fussy toddlers may mean a smaller gallery, etc.
Sorry that isn't super specific, but it is really a case by case basis.
I do guarantee a minimum number of images for my clients and always overdeliver
@@HelloJudePhotographyDo you give them for example 15 edited picture and what do you do with the rest? Some photographers give originals as well, some don't. I'm really interested to know your opinion) Do you shoot only in raw or raw+jpeg?
@@valentinmelnik7590 I do things a little differently than other photographer. I deliver everything that is worth delivering. I cull duplicates/ similar images , blurry, eyes closed, etc. but everything else I deliver in the gallery. I do not deliver unedited images though. Just like an artist wouldn't deliver a sketch, I truly believe the best part of what I have to offer is the art I can create through editing.
I only shoot in RAW as well.
Can I buy your presets?
Hey! Thanks for asking! I'm working on possibly releasing some this summer!
