Really great video. truly respect your position on editing your own photos. No one here really speaks to it like you do. I will have to re-watch to try to hone in on your HDR blending. Lol.
I do all my own post processing. I actually enjoy that part of the business. In nearly every instance I learn something valuable in the process, something that often relates to photography in general, not limited to real estate. I shoot brackets and merge photos in LR HDR, with an occasional window pull or other instance where Photoshop is used.
Great video! I liked how you changed the colors of the chairs and molding. I would love to see a video with examples of how to change house exterior colors, especially using paint chips for the reference colors. Thanks again for all the great information you provide!
The editing book, but you might want to check out my step-by-step online course on expert editing, here's a link if you'd like to check that out: ExpertEditing.NathanCool.com
Thanks for promoting flambient, Nathan, it's such a great creative process, dealing with observation, shooting technique, and digital processing ! Our job, as photographers, HAS to keep embracing all those aspects, so that human brain and hand keep making sense... Otherwise IA will take over all of us The so called "i'm a natural light photographer" folks, please, come along and learn, your genius won't make it for you !!
Hey Nathan! Firstly, thanks so much for all your tutorials, books, and your new course! You've helped me start my own RE photo business, and I'm super grateful. I just wanted to provide anecdotal evidence that you're correct when you talk about how photographers complain about how their particular market won't pay for high quality work. I live in Hattiesburg, Mississippi where a typical home lists in the mid $200k-not exactly California homes. Thanks to the quality of work that I'm able to provide to my clients, many of them purchase photography for every single house that they list-even the homes that a well below average. Again, big thanks!
Hey, Nathan. Thanks for the video. Amazing. I have a question: when should we select RGB to create a mask in the ambient layer, and when should we just do the 50/50 without that RG selection? Thanks you again.
That's a great question. The short answer is No, but only because it originally caused a bug when firing the flash using the xPro trigger override settings. Here's an old video where I talk about that ua-cam.com/video/ixNxkQ7rWsU/v-deo.html but since it's been some time I should test it again. Thanks for bringing this up!
Thank you for the informative video, Nathan . I was wondering, what scenarios would you consider using HDR for? For a large rooms? Or are there other times as well?
Slightly off topic…many folks feature multi flash pops/composites, but what is your take on setting up multiple flashes, to better get it 'right' in cameras? Thanks for all the knowledge you provide!
I show both techniques, but more importantly when they are best used, in my interior photography course...here's a link if you'd like to check that out: prointeriors.nathancool.com
Im using mostly lr all my career but i started ps too ..why when i try to send my bracket photos 3 to hdr pro first time did great work but when i tried again its open only one photo of three... what im doing wrong? thanks
I'd have to see what you're doing, which would require a private session. It sounds though like you are either flashing incorrectly, or applying ambient incorrectly, or something else. I'm not sure what your skill level is, but I would suggest taking a look at my books or courses to help you out, see LearnRE.NathanCool.com
Please do the following: 1. Go to my courses at learnre.nathancool.com 2. Take a screen shot of the error 3. Email that screen shot to me at Nathan@NathanCoolPhoto.com Thanks!
Question, if you have a moment: it says that your books have been recently updated. Is that just Book 1 - or all 9; and is that only the Kindle version or the print version too? Thanks! You are really a master at this! Wow.
@@NathanCoolPhoto Yes, that's where I saw the notation regarding Book 1 was updated in February. Thanks! Do you think you will ever have a bundle price for the entire paperback set? Thanks again!
I do have a bundle discount on my interior courses at ProInteriorBundle.NathanCool.com The paperback books cost a lot to print on photo-quality paper so I've priced those as low as I can. The ebooks cost less, and the courses have a ton of material packed into a more comprehensive format, along with RAW files you can use to follow along (something the books don't have).
@@NathanCoolPhoto Great! Thank you!! I've never seen anyone with the in depth knowledge that you have regarding PS. It's inspiring what you can create.
Great video. I've been speaking to realtors in the area (Palm Beach County FL) that deal with multi million dollar homes, and they're paying $500 for 70 images, aerials, virtual tours, video, twilight images and more. And the guys stuff is good. How do you compete with that?
Thanks! How do you compete? Easy: If they're "good", then become great. Don't compete with price, show them you are better. Be better in quality; be better in customer support; be better in turnaround; be better in editing; be better for availability; be better in every way. BMWs cost more than Hondas for a reason: they don't compete on price.

Nathan, for those of us who have been following you for a long time, this is an excellent recap! Thank you for freely sharing this tutorial.
My pleasure!

Thank you!
I am starting my Real Estate Photography and i am trying to perfect the HDR and Flambient technic!!!Thanks for your great source and lessons!!!
after 13 years working as a Fashion and Commercial Photographer&Retoucher, all I have to say is WOW, so nice, so cool, so simple to explain.
I do all my own post processing. I actually enjoy that part of the business. In nearly every instance I learn something valuable in the process, something that often relates to photography in general, not limited to real estate. I shoot brackets and merge photos in LR HDR, with an occasional window pull or other instance where Photoshop is used.
Thank you Nathan, indeed it is by sweating during your editing you learn the essence of correct settings and composition.
My pleasure!
Thank you, Nathan! As always, useful and well explained.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Nathan, I love watching your videos. Simple to understand and follow along.
Great video, well said Nathan!
Glad you enjoyed it
You definitely have an eye for colors!
Thank you! I learned a lot from this video :D
Great video! I liked how you changed the colors of the chairs and molding. I would love to see a video with examples of how to change house exterior colors, especially using paint chips for the reference colors. Thanks again for all the great information you provide!
Thank you! I do cover a lot about color in my editing course, here's a link if you'd like to check that out: ExpertEditing.NathanCool.com

You're welcome!
Do you use the color accuracy mode in your Godox strobes?
That's a great question. The short answer is No, but only because it originally caused a bug when firing the flash using the xPro trigger override settings.

Thank you for the informative video, Nathan . I was wondering, what scenarios would you consider using HDR for? For a large rooms? Or are there other times as well?
Thanks! I talk about that when I get to the HDR section of the video.
@@NathanCoolPhoto ah must have missed it. I’ll go back and take a look. Thank you

Overall, I'd suggest not using the PS HDR Pro; instead, watch this video for a better technique: ua-cam.com/video/zfFBgMOVLAA/v-deo.html
@@NathanCoolPhoto thanks,i just did..ill be honest need practice but ill manage thanks:)
How do I make my ceilings bright yet balanced with the rest of the room? I find that my ceilings almost always look dark

I can't access to the courses beucase its says my region is block, I'm from venezuela :(
Please do the following:
1. Go to my courses at learnre.nathancool.com
2. Take a screen shot of the error
3. Email that screen shot to me at Nathan@NathanCoolPhoto.com
Thanks!
Do the books cover the same material as the courses?
Not entirely. The courses are more comprehensive, come with RAW files, and combine numerous items throughout many of the books, and then some.
I want to learn real estate image editing
Great! This can help you: expertediting.nathancool.com
Question, if you have a moment: it says that your books have been recently updated. Is that just Book 1 - or all 9; and is that only the Kindle version or the print version too? Thanks! You are really a master at this! Wow.
Each is updated as needed. See descriptions for each one at amzn.to/41AwIeq
