FIVE Things I Wish I Knew When I Started in Photography!!!

- Опубліковано 8 сер 2024
- In this video, I get to work with Carolina again and shoot with the old EF 300mm F2.8 Lens. It's an incredible lens and one I wish I owned.
I also discuss 5 things that I wish I knew about photography when I first started.
Exposure, Posing, Lighting, Specializing, and Grinding.
Hope you enjoy the video and portraits. Carolina is perfection in front of the camera!

Exposure triangle is a misnomer. “Choose your Shutter Speed with purpose and Aperture with feeling. Then adjust the BRIGHTNESS with ISO.”- Joe Edelman.
Love that quote!
Your ISO can only go so low if it's bright out and so high before noise kicks in. It's ALL a give and take
What a beautiful model and beautiful photos.
Thanks for the tips. It's always great to have a model that's fun to work with. Makes the whole experience so much easier and fluid.
For me, "posing" is more about "directing". That's the hard part. Learning how to direct someone who isn't good at posing to pose, or pose without looking like they're posing...which is my preference.
Exactly! People may not even consider posing when considering photography, but there is an art to it! I love working with models to watch and see how they create. They are artists in their own right.
Damn those poses! Fantastic!
(also the photos and timing to take it!)
Beautiful Photos!!!
#6 I wish I'd known Carolina.
Funnest model😊
Appreciate you sharing this information. Very helpful
This is simple encouragement and called life and good teaching
Beautiful Work Jason!
Very nice starting tips :+1:. Agree with all 5 now.
Cheers!
Thank you!
Always great videos. Great shoot.
Thank you!
As far as paid gigs go, weddings can be had if you will do them. There's all kinds of money to be made. But for me, one wedding equals 40 hours of work, between meeting with the couple originally to plan the day sign the contract, to the entire day shooting, to driving back and forth to photo labs, and album places and meeting with the couple again to pick images/album layout, etc. They're a lot of work, but you can earn a weeks salary in one wedding. I did them for many years on the side to build my pro camera kit. I got a little burned out, because I was booking up weddings a year in advance, and I wasn't sure I wanted to be shooting weddings in a year or more. Every once in a while someone can convince me to come out of retirement so to speak, to do another wedding (Usually family or friend), and it's fun again when it's casual. Going to do more seniors/models now.
Yeah. Too much work for my blood.
I’ve got a dance studio volume gig this weekend. It’s my kind of shooting and wedding money! So I prefer that.
Well that's good. There're ways to shoot weddings for less work too. I met a guy at a bar who said he'll pay me $700 to just come and shoot a wedding with him that Saturday, and an extra $100 after the first one. We never even met before. I never had to meet with the couple, no editing photos, no album builds, just shoot the day maybe 12 hours, and give him the files. If you're good, I know there's a lot of photography studios that will pay $1000 near me in NE Ohio anyways, just to shoot day of. I'm sure more, in bigger markets. It's a lot less work for sure. I may do this at some point. Even when people are broke, money comes out of the woodwork for the wedding. Make a cake, cater the food, be a DJ, drive a limo, rent tux's, for me I'll take the pictures. But I totally get why photogs don't want to do it. It's high stress when you're by yourself and a loooong day.
Awesome Jason! Keep kicking ass📸
Thank you!
bonjour, bravo à tous les 2 ,belles photos magnifiques . la modèle est vraiment très gracieuse 👏👏,c'est assez rare sur you tube
For lighting, #3, I'd love to see how you choose your locations and how you choose to position your models in those. Also, sometimes, on the same shoot, you choose to use the strobe and other times just natural light. What's the process for those decisions. It could be a whole video!
Great video and advice 👍🏼. I’ve been struggling with getting capture one installed right to learn to edit 😂
Carolina is so fun to work with
This is another great video with great information to learn from, thank you.
I recently stopped sports photography after a period of 10 years pro and amateur soccer and amateur tennis in my hometown.
Now I've chosen to go for model photography and birding and I'm not going for a profession as a photographer (I have a well-paid job), I choose to do TFP and have fun taking the portraits I take of my models and also retouching the best portraits of that shoot.
I started as a natural light photographer because I did not know how to keep the flashes working the way I wanted them to work.
End of 2022 I started with a Profoto A1 to see if that would work better and it did so now I own a couple of A1 flashes and also two B10 flashes.
I love the Profoto system and I don't take any portraits without these flashes and modifiers anymore.
I love the result of the portraits in this video, Carolina is a great model to work with as she shows her ability to pose well!
Great comment and I love the story!
Keep shooting and loving what you do!!!
@@J.Allen_Photography I certainly will do so, thank you.
Nice work
I agree with your five things and I would like to add one more, that we have to take care about small details, as how to pose hands, fingers and eyes direction, there are many photos I started to dislike after I started to notice them.
Great Video - beautiful model
Thank you!
Thanks for this information 🙏
great video
I guess it might help new photographers to know that to have full control of the 3, it's best to put your camera on MANUAL mode. Very nice video Jason!
Thank you so much!
This is indeed a god job well done. I think I would love to request for a tutorial using a nifty fifty 50mm Canon Lense f1,8 stm. Thank you in advance.
#5 hit home so hard 😢 Thanks for the awesome info sir.
Glad you enjoy it. Keep grinding!
Man... you're a wonderful photographer.
Thanks. I appreciate it!
Great stuff brother
Thank yiu
👍👍 good stuff
Thanks bro!
I have a 300mm F2.8 bought on ebay 6yrs ago. I use it for bird Photography on a cropped sensor camera. I have used on Portrait photography all handheld. I actually do closeup flower photography also. 300mm F2.8 ridge with the camera weighs about 8 1/2 pounds this is not for everyone.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
3:06 on #1 my worry and hold up switching to manual shooting was I thought photographers just KNEW.. “Oh.. hey.. we are outside.. loads of sun.. I need to shoot ISO 100, f/2.8 and at 1/500 .. “ just off the top of their heads. But one doesn’t need to know it. Just take some test shots and know if it is dark, then we need to raise ISO or slow the shutter. If it is over exposed.. need to raise the ISO or speed up the shutter.
Super helpful vid thx. How much do you charge for a shoot like this?
10:39 I’m glad you said these things. People get mixed up with what I shoot and I explain and they don’t like that. Just want to shoot single or couple portraits and a lot of times I get asked if I can do birthday party’s and I decline those cause I don’t want to deal with a lot of people respectfully. Same for weddings. I’ve done one wedding and it was great but it was too many people. I’d rather start small.
Shooting what you want to shoot makes your better, but it also makes it more enjoyable for you! Keep shooting what you want!
👏👏👏
amazing bokeh for an F2.8
Thanks Mr Allen
Its where i am at currently
💘💯
Hey Jason!! Great content!!! I’m just west of you in Bandera! Could you link your podcast? Thanks for all your insight!
The podcast is currently hosted right here on youtube!
Mr. Allen, great work and awesome model!. I always benefit from your videos. I have a question. I noticed that on your previous videos, when you use a wide aperture f1.2, you set your ISO to 100. In this video, is there a reason you set the 300mm to ISO 500? Is it because of the your "shake"? I was under the impression that the lower your ISO the better. Please advise. Thank you!!!
Great question!
So with that 300mm. Wide open is 2.8 as opposed to my usual 1.2 on my 85mm.
Since I’m shooting at 2.8, it allows less light. I also shot at 1/800s on my shutter, to eliminate camera shake. So this also cut my light a little. So I bumped up the ISO to give me the proper exposure needed, without going to my flash.
@@J.Allen_Photography Thank you! You have taken my fear of moving from ISO 100! I have a 70-200 2.8 that I love using! I'm going to test that out. Thanks again, Jason!!!
Love to have a model like Carolina
The bokeh on 300mm 2.8 is special.
ISO allows more light in, I thought ISO increased the exposure after the image has already been taken? I liken ISO to a rheostat after the image has already been captured by the image sensor. Am I wrong? Thank you!
No. As you adjust the iso, you can see real time what it does to your image…if you’re using mirrorless that is. It’s just another component of the exposure triangle and works in real time in conjunction with the other two. Aperture and Shutter.
Было бы интересно посмотреть больше съемок на 300mm f2.8 или 400mm f2.8 или например 200mm f2.0
I can't imaging portraits at 400mm. That would be insane. I would love the 200mm f2.
Would you tell the model or show the model what to do , for example show them a picture of the pose
Sometimes. If they are stuck. Or if I’m working with a client who doesn’t pose all the time, I have them send me some inspo images and sometimes we can recreate using similar poses.
for me number 5 is hard to learn and accept
Hey
Lol you said you specialize in hs students? Good suggests but creep tho lmfao
Definitely need to be sure I say correctly what I mean. Lol.
你拍照水平很差，都是大光圈
I can see the camera loves her….
Nice work
