Love the classic black, white photos. Old Hollywood and gives a certain feeling. I use basically one speedlight in very small room for selfie and do some other photography for fun.
These deconstructions are so helpful, I always get new ideas to try in my studio and I love trying to figure out how to get the same look with the gear that I have.
Thank you Lindsay Adler for all you share, its amazing to see the out of camera image morph into your final vision! Truly incredible how much control Photographers have nowadays at their fingertips.
Lindsay you’re way of teaching and explaining is just top notch (almost at level with your photographic work) I always get something new when listening to you so thank you so much for charging!
Thank you Lindsay 💜. I was so scared but so curious to use studio lighting, and watching your videos helped me out so much. I'm still watching videos from 2015 🙂 and thank you for helping me pose my subjects better 🙏💯💯💯
Using the jacket to cover most of the leading shoulder also keeps too much brightness off the shoulder that would distract the eye away from the face and neck. I often have that issue with my portraits that have a leading bare shoulder. I end up having to darken that area in post. Beautiful image.
It would have been important to add that after converting to BW to leave the original contrast intack. Then duplicate the BW layer to exposure adjust the popping contrast of whites. With that new layer, then mask it, and with a black brush with light flow and opacity to brush the select areas to accent the shadows. I think that explanation might have been included in the transformation of the color to BW. Changing directions of light for varying depths of contrast might also be recommended. Just my thoughts.
Awesome BTS. I love the B&W and even though you could add a hair light to change the mood but I think it is a terrific high key shot💕 Does this modifier come in different angles? I saw Wescott has a 70 degree reflector like this.
Love this tutorial. Quick question, how do you have your modifiers mounted on the wall behind you? Is it just for decoration or storage? I want a handy way to store mine.
@@lindsayadlerphoto, thank you! Modifier storage is such a PITA. The way yours are done makes them a beautiful focal piece. Thank you for your work. Hugs and stay warm. It’s sooooo fricken cold.
I find that you have to get creative with it. With so many oddly shaped modifiers you have to figure out different ways to store everything. Thank you also for the kind words! :)
Hi Lindsay 🥰 do you offer photo editing courses? I've just started out but I love the way you teach and your editing styles. Thank you so much for your time ❤️
@@lindsayadlerphoto I hope you do 🙏 do you by chance have any people you'd recommend who have editing classes online or through UA-cam? Also thank you for replying! I'm a bit start struck at the moment cause I really admire you and your work 😅🤣 it'd be absolutely wonderful to meet you someday 🥰
I usually share a bit of how I edit in RAW in these videos but the actual retouching I don't really go into detail with since I usually outsource that or if it's something really simple I don't generally include it in the videos since I just mention what was done.
The f stop with the right background I think is a matter of really having experience: shooting at f4 thru a whole shoot ? Set get everything right with lighting and background then go for it The more experienced the model _ may really help also f4
number of light is irrelevant. you focus on a result, then use the proper amount of light. your photo is beautiful, using another lights or more would change the look but would still be beautiful.
@@lindsayadlerphoto Replay your video carefully, I just anwser your question you ask at 7:34 , you ask if we would use another lights or one light was enough. if you did not want the feedback , why did you ask that question ?
a super photo, intense charisma and very well matching light, well done ! but when it comes to the end result, the unnaturally long-looking neck bothers me more than the completely natural shoulder position in the unedited photo ... that was the first thing that struck me when I compared the photos
@@lindsayadlerphoto I had understood that, but I was torn about whether I liked it better before or after, but in a positive sense it doesn't matter because tastes are different, this is just a detail and doesn't change anything about the great idea and the lighting

Undoubtedly the best teacher on the Tube!
Aw too kind, thanks!
Excellent Lindsay I like the one light use. Thank you.
I love these deconstructions. Very helpful and inspiring!

Thank you so much, glad that you enjoy them. :)

Great. 👍🔔
Love your creative process and thinking out of the box. Awesome!!
Your hard light shots are my favorite.
Amazing result, excellent!
Love the way you work with light. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much!
You are the master of 1 hard light imagery 😩 incredible work as always Lindsay ❤️
Your videos are amazing. Thank you
Thanks so much!
Perfect💓
This is awesome! I’ve used one light for a lot of my older work and they came out fantastic! Great job! ✨
Lindsay you’re way of teaching and explaining is just top notch (almost at level with your photographic work)

Thank you so much for the kind words! :)
Thank you!
Simply the best!
Always stunning
Great descriptions of how and why you do things.
You are really a Inspiration for me ....
Thanks so much Jan!

I love your style
Thank you so much!
Stay bless 🙂
f/4 never hurt anyone when it comes to retouching. 🤣 I love my f/8 and f/11, but man… Wider apertures are so much easier to deal with in post!
Stunning image and BTS, would you ever use the magnum on someone without makeup?

Great video!!! What is a cheap substitute for the Magnum Reflector?😢
zoom reflector?
@@lindsayadlerphoto Thank you so much Lindsay✨
Love this tutorial.
Quick question, how do you have your modifiers mounted on the wall behind you? Is it just for decoration or storage? I want a handy way to store mine.
It's for actual storage. It's something custom done but I will have more info on how to do that in the future. :)

I don't at the moment. It's not my specialty really so I leave that to the pros! I have plans on releasing a color grading class hopefully in 2023. :D

@@lindsayadlerphoto thank you 😊
Could you show how do u edit this in Photoshop or any free software?
I love how u lowered the shoulder
I usually share a bit of how I edit in RAW in these videos but the actual retouching I don't really go into detail with since I usually outsource that or if it's something really simple I don't generally include it in the videos since I just mention what was done.
How do you choose if you will do a butterfly or a Rembrandt light?
Depends entirely on what I intend for the final photo to look like. I don't go into the shoot thinking if it should be one way or the other.
The f stop with the right background I think is a matter of really having experience: shooting at f4 thru a whole shoot ? Set get everything right with lighting and background then go for it
The more experienced the model _ may really help also f4
Love your video. How do you have the lights mounted on the wall?
It's custom, I'll have some more info on it in the future. :)
@@lindsayadlerphoto Look's like a great ideas. I have a very small in-home studio and making everything fit is a challenging. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it. :)
number of light is irrelevant. you focus on a result, then use the proper amount of light. your photo is beautiful, using another lights or more would change the look but would still be beautiful.
Thanks for your 2 cents, but that wasn't the point of the video. It was about making this time with ONE LIGHT.
@@lindsayadlerphoto Replay your video carefully, I just anwser your question you ask at 7:34 , you ask if we would use another lights or one light was enough. if you did not want the feedback , why did you ask that question ?
@@martindalpe.photography I'll be sure to reply the video I made and already know about. 🙄
Nice result! But where is the BTS video of the actual photo shoot ?
These are "photo deconstructions" which means I break down a photo. They don't contain a video bts of the shoot.
Hello 👋👋🤗
Hello 😊
a super photo, intense charisma and very well matching light, well done !
but when it comes to the end result, the unnaturally long-looking neck bothers me more than the completely natural shoulder position in the unedited photo ... that was the first thing that struck me when I compared the photos
The point was to exaggerate the neckline.
@@lindsayadlerphoto
I had understood that, but I was torn about whether I liked it better before or after, but in a positive sense it doesn't matter because tastes are different, this is just a detail and doesn't change anything about the great idea and the lighting
Good result, but way too far off reality for my taste
