    Jerry will show you how to use conventional and non-conventional light sources resulting in striking images in any location. Known as the "MacGyver" of photography, Jerry has the innate ability to turn ordinary situations into extraordinary images. Jerry will show you how easy it can be. After this seminar, you will never complain about having to work with an ordinary location ever again.

    This video changed my life.
    I was an amateur photographer, but after watching this video, I was determined to became a wedding photographer, and I did and I found my wife thru photography circles and had a beautiful baby boy.
    Love you Jerry…❤️

    Out of all the presentations I have seen B&H put out, this one was the best, the most informative, most useful, this guy is good and he has a way of showing it. His work speaks for itself, but his way of explaining everything is amazing. Bring him back to do more presentations. Loved it.

    I really like this guy. He speaks very clearly and in simple terms and is not haughty. I am at his webiste at the same time and his shots are amazing. I love using strobes and have been mainly a strobist since i started in 2011. Now i find myself learning natural light. The shots hes pointed out are so inspiring especially the couple with red sign as backdrop and the large shadows on the wall.Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for this talk, ***** . This is one of the most informative and detailed discussions on the subject of light.
    On the subject of focus: "I have a very low tolerance for lack of sharpness, in the sense that if I want to focus on the person, and if the closest eyeball to camera is not in focus, I delete it. I have very low tolerance. If it's deliberate it's totally fine. But for me, if it's just slightly out, I can't - I just can't - my heart hurts a little bit. Most people - you know what they do if it's out of focus? - they make it black and white, add some noise, add some vignette and it's art. I can't do that." :D

    I recently attended one of Jerry's workshops. He did shoot live and tethered so we attending could see what he was getting out of camera. I can't speak to any of the shots in this video, but I do know that what he was getting out of camera was high contrast and looked photoshopped. In a good way. I would have to do a double take to look at what was being photographed and what my eyes saw and what he was getting out of camera. It was pretty amazing. I thought most of his work was heavily post processed, but I have to say, after seeing it live, The guys seriously knows what he is doing in camera. He's like a magician.

    • @bobbyellis5006
      @bobbyellis5006 8 років тому +3

      Is there anyway to find out his exposure method? Obviously, it didn't get recorded, but he puts so much emphasis on it, and it comes up often in the video, I'm very interested in finding out his technique.

    Jerry Ghionis & BHP...great presentation. I haven't been shooting during the day much (because of bright light) and my family responsibilities take up most of my "golden hour" time. You have truly given me a gift with your daylight shooting ideas. Thank you so much for sharing. AMAZING!

  • @BandH
    @BandH  11 років тому

    @Larry Banks II When Jerry says to "expose for the highlights" he means mainly to never let them be overexposed; he would prefer to lose a little detail in the black instead. This can be done in camera by using your metering. It is dependent on how the person meters as to how this would work.

    Would love to know the exposure technique he uses.

  • @RonRohrssen
    @RonRohrssen 11 років тому +1

    Yes. He's referring to the use of your exposure lock. Basically, it goes like this:
    1. Point your camera at the background to take a reading off the background. For example the horizon, including much of the sky.
    2. Press your exposure lock.
    3. Recompose on the subject and use your speedlight or other lights to fill in the foreground subject correctly.
    This should give you an image that is exposed for the background and the foreground.

    Fabulous... Absolutely fabulous. I've been intrigued by the ice lights and this demo put me right over the edge. I've been considering every lighting option for portable video lighting and this did the trick. I used Kino Flo's in the past and don't have the budget for them now. The ice lights will work perfectly for product and interview shots as well as for creative stills! Sweet!
