Can we find you there?:)
Hahaha maybe one day Adam :)
WHY are they requesting for credit card details since the first two months is free
Credit card ! Are you kidding
Love the knowledge that you are sharing from your photoshoot. And love the fact that you posted all the pictures in RAW then one final edited one so we have a nice understanding of the post production and a good comparison for us to see. Love your channel Eli. You are such an open-book to learn. Thank you.
My pleasure! I love making these videos for you guys!
I find all your content really helpful. Especially this one. To me its so interesting and educational to see the BTS of another photographer and with insides and thoough process put in the shoot. Big THANK YOU!
You're welcome! I always appreciate feedback like this. You made my day :)
Yes, please!!! More videos like that, i'm learning like crazyyyy
You got it Larissa! :)
LOVE this video! SO incredibly helpful to see behind the scenes and get some insight into your thought processes when shooting. PLEASE keep making more of these!!
Great to hear Belinda! I'm already planning episode 2 of this series. :)
Eli Infante AMAZING! I’ll be watching :)
I'm learning something new each time I see your videos. Gracias
Love your vids Eli!
Honestly, your work is spectacular and you are such an inspiration. Thank you for the fantastic content!
My pleasure!
Amazing as always!! In your actions/brushes kit below do you have videos how to use them?
Hi Eli, this was a great video. Yes I would definitely enjoy more content like this.
More to come Jonathan!
Amazing tips Eli! Those are some informational insights
Thanks bro! I'm LOVING your edits on Instagram :)
Beautiful shots, really enjoyed this vid, Thanks Eli, Todo el Pedo
TODO EL PEDO VATO! Gracias
My girlfriend is a fashion stylist and does on almost all my shoots and she always has her "kit" with her which always has a lint roller, safety pins, glues and any sprays that may be needed in case because if we can't have a fitting before the shoot and things are slightly bigger, we can always pin them up or back in case this happens. Yes, always be prepared in case so you always have something to make it through. I live in North Texas an hour from Dallas and most of our shoots are in Dallas, so we have to make sure to always bring extra everything just in case because most models we work with end up being a tad smaller than the measurements they give us.
dude, your work is amazing and I love these type of videos. I am just a grasshopper compared to you but this is really helpful. Last shoot I did, I literally ran out of ideas and we had 20m of blue hour left with nice lights and what not - I had no idea what to do or even try next, lol ... now you’ve given me some new ideas and inspiration. thank you so much 🙏!
Thanks for watching Stephen! Episode 2 coming soon :)
This video it was very helpful, thank you and I hope you keep doing this type of video :D
Thank you! Will do!
Yes, more content like this!
Its coming! Already have ideas for episode 2 :)
Great Video as always Eli...Thank you
My pleasure!
Enjoy the way you present your view and walk through the aspects of setting up the shoot.
Thanks Chuck! I plan on making more videos like this.
Eli - awesome as always! I dig these BTS thought process videos.
Glad to hear it! More coming soon :)
Huge fan of your portraits! Very individualistic and stylish.
Thank you so much 😀
This was an awesome video.. All props, lighting, shooting, posing and ideas my favourite is when you shared your shots to the model and understand her pov..
Thanks bro! That really helps develop the shot
@@EliInfante sister my brother 😄 I am a woman 🙊
You are really awesome.This has changed my photography.Always share please
Happy to hear that!
Such an incredible video man!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude! This type of content is so much better than gear reviews!
Appreciate it Isaac! I'm already working on episode 2 and this series will only improve with time.
So awesome!!
Thanks!!
Really amazing, please i want more
Thank you so much!
hey! 👋🏻 saw your comment on Think Medias video and decided to stop by! Awesome content! Keep crushing it ❤️!
Thanks for coming!
Eli, great video as always! Question: A lot of these large modifiers come with a small dish that goes on the umbrella pole right in front of the flash head, from what I understand it gives that "beauty-dish" look, but it seems to diffuse the light almost a full stop. I often just take it out, especially if I need more light/power. Do you use them? Ditch them?
Jaime Andres Photography I never use it man. Thanks for the feedback 😁
Felt like I was with you during the shoot🥰
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge sir.
My pleasure
Genioooo! Like para los puntuales😊😊 #todoelpedoooo!
Todo El PEDO vato!
Muy wapo el video!!!!Saludos desde Londres y a seguir creando!!!
Gracias Jaime! :)
@@EliInfante De nada!!!
I just watched a wesctcott ad with Eli Infante before watching an Eli Infante video and thought I already was watching the video I wanted to see.
Hahaha thanks for the support!
I love your work! :) what do you recommend for basic flash setup for hobby users only not for business? affordable and reasonable price for sony a7iii user. do you recommend GODOX TT350S with softbox or Godox LED Video Light SL-60W 5600K for home use only? :)
Also, what do you recommend for outdoor flash portable and affordable, and what size of softbox do you recommend for dramatic shot 60cm or 90cm octagon or rectangle softbox? can I achieve that kind of shot using a small flash only like the TT350S or I need bigger flash like the Godox AD200Pro? thank you! :)
Amazing video! i enjoyed a lot....
Thank you very much!
Awesome breakdowns!
Glad you liked it!
Nice one thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
Great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank u Sri
You're welcome!
thank you
You're welcome
You should look into small A clamps. Won't put holes in the clothes like the pins do. Plus, they work for backgrounds, etc.
Great idea Jon I have the larger clamps.
I really enjoyed your sharing your thoughts in setting up these shots. Would have been nice for you to quickly add your settings.
Great suggestion!
More of these types of videos, please
Yes sir! You got it Nathan :)
Everyone learn about photography from him like me 🥰
Thank you! :)
Just took you up on Skillshare! I've been putting it off for months and thought I'd give it a go.
Hope you enjoy it!
I happened to accidentally find your page I'm glad I did. Do you focus on the background for exposure?
Yes I do Edagrd!
If you ever make it Austin let me know. Love your tutorials
Thanks Fred! Maybe I'll be there this summer
I am curious about what type of focus point are you using and the settings for the focus? For Example, I had a situation where I have two subjects in a car, I shoot through one of the side windows trying to catch both in focus, I think at f8 maybe, but still, I couldn't do that, and after being at home and seeing this as a mistake... oh damn.... I felt so miserable and unlucky...
Eli!!
One question..
Is export setting of instagram same for facebook??
And thanks for awesome video💗💗
When I export yes but is it the right way hahaha probably not.
which filter to use to get that quality of photos
I don't use a filter on my lens.
Hi from Corpus. How do you prep locations like this from snakes and pests. Some of my subjects are nervous when I ask them to get into a field or grass.
Shannon Musial Great question. Here in our area we don’t have much snakes. I still do scout the area before I have someone sit. As for the pests I always bring bug spray to my shoots.
aloha brah., dope videos man. ilove your work. fan from hawaii here.
just wondering. do you pay these models ? how do you get income from doing this ??
thanks brotha. alohassss
Sometimes! I have a full time job teaching. This is mainly a hobby.
Here!
Thanks for tuning in man!
Eli Infante always!
Do you shoot in raw and what’s your settings on camera for portrait
I only shoot RAW and have my focus set to wide with eye auto focus enabled.
Hello,, i only have speedlights,., is it strong enough to get this kind of shots?
Maybe if you use an ND filter
Small clamps or clamp type clothes pins.
Both Judy! I always pack them in my bag 😀
great shot under pressure
Thank you! :)
I'd like to see a video of Flash techniques/lighting techniques you use
Noted! When I can shoot again this will be on my list :)
hii sir plzz make the tutroil video of HDR how to make in Ligthroom and Photoshop
I don't use HDR so it might not be a video for my channel.
😍😍😍🌹
Thank you!
If you do this again can you make a insta poll so we can pick the photos that we want to know how you got it?
Excellent idea! I'm going to do this right now.
This is really beautiful can I ask a question tho
Whats up
Am good it's a pleasure chatting with you ,one of your fans from Nigeria an upcoming photographer will send u a message also on Ig ,been having difficulties moving on because of expensive gadgets don't know if it's possible to get a used light like a Godox Ad and preferable a nikon D750 or d7500 then shipped down here to Nigeria wouldn't mind giving ,you self time saving and paying for it
Would appreciate it will mean the world to me
I've thought of giving up but photographers like you keep encouraging us to push harder
"HEY LOSER! IT'S IN PHARR" #CLASSIC. At least you're getting people to respond. You're lucky that no one was using the tennis court for its intended use.
LMAO yes!
If there had been tennis players there I think they would have been pretty distracted 😃
Wow. Nice video. Greetings from #WorldHAX
Thanks for the visit
And give some Presets of Lightrooms And ACR
I want to eventually :)
我喜欢你作品里的模特😏
I don't understand but thanks hahaha!
Invest in clips also for baggy clothes
Great idea!
Does todo el pedo mean all the fart? 🤣💨
Testicals Of Iron It means the whole shabang! 🤣
