Yes. So much yes. These are wonderful. I don't have the opportunity to shoot a lot right now, but so grateful to be storing these inspiring ideas and getting motivated to use them, Lindsay. Thanks for sharing
I only just discovered your work, and you've already become one of my favorite portraitists. The image in this video would make an amazing platinum-palladium print, especially since it deserves to last thousands of years. :)
This is an excellent lighting teaching video. What I would have like to have seen is a picture with each individual light alone, so we can evaluate what the light is doing. Just my 2 cents.
if you check learnwithlindsay.com with my magic of gels course, master studio lighting or creative studio lighting video-- all of those premium do that. :D
Incredible work, really, with a Sony a7VI I can imagine the posibilities with 61 mega pixels picture in shift only from Sony! As I said is a amazing work!!
There is nothing burlesque about this photo, nor the dress. It is a kind of Gatsby look in B&W. I love OLD HOLLYWOOD! I lived in Hollywood for 30 years, and I am a fan of HURRELL's work. I like the 30s and 40s for Hollywood glamour, but I'm not as much into the 1920s era of Flappers, the Charleston, art deco beaded gowns, and flat chests. You explained the lighting rather well. You seem like a good teacher for people who really want to create interesting portraits. I worked for Harry Langdon Jr many years ago and was often amazed with his lighting. He did a photo of actress Kelly Rutherford that is very Old Hollywood Glamour, and he did it in color.
Thanks for sharing and teaching. Love the concept and the result very much. Just one wish, would it be possible to show us the flashes one by one. Think I understand your explanations but I would like to see what every flash does for the picture

Beautiful, absolutely stunning photo. I would love to see you use a film camera, ditch digital, for that real old-time look. Film has a certain look that I find very pleasing. Any digital camera can take the same photo. How would this photo look using 35mm, 6x7, 5 inch and even 10 or 12 inch film. Not sure about the size of film plates in view cameras. When viewing the photo enlarged, it looked terrible. This type of photo needs a large format film camera to do justice.
Excellent image, and best breakdown I saw in a long time. Thank you so very much. Can you provide a link to the final image to study it better? I love the 40s Hollywood style, just as a mere mortal I will not be able to copy your excellence, just stay impressed. May be you could show 40s b&w images with breakdown with less setup.
i have taken some nice shots because of you. you're my teacher without even knowing it lol. i have purchased a few of your classes from crtvliv. hope one day i can make something worthy enough for you look at.
I love this photo. Just so stunning. In the before shot I found myself staring at the breast that was "exposed" trying to figure out what I was seeing (looked like a bra). Would love to see how you corrected that.
My god i love lindsay but the product placement is going crazy Please think in you followers you know this can be achieved with 2 lights. sad that money or free stuff go in the way of learning
Did you even watch the video? This could NOT be achieved with 2 lights. The dramatic short light main light position has it completely feathered off the background with most of the body completely away from it. That means the background light IS required. The fill light in front IS required. The face light IS required to keep 2/3 of the face from going dark. Just because you may be able to use two lights enough to take stunning pictures clearly doesn't make you a master of lighting, because you clearly only live for "good enough." And what free stuff? Lindsay has been using these lights and modifiers *FOR YEARS*, LONG before she became sponsored by Profoto. Not everyone is as uninvested in their craft as you are. I am up to five lights and could do this setup EXACTLY, TO THE MODIFIER. I will also eventually be getting MORE strobes. You do not represent her entire following.
@@longliveclassicmusic Thank you. I appreciate you. It costs time, effort and money to even produce "free" content. It comes out of my pocket and most people don't realize that. I'm sorry for the freebie seekers that they think I have endless funds apparently and can make content all day without making a living. These same people that complain about product placement probably throw their sodas at the tv when a commercial comes on.
This be good for show, Education, or New Years Event. Awesome ideas!!
Lindsay: This photograph uses 5 different strobes
Me: *exits quietly
Beautiful image, sepia would have looked great too.
Truly vintage Hollywood. Beautiful.
Excellent positioning of the model's hands--always a challenge. The movement line fits in quite well!
Lindsay, you put so much passion into your work. We're all the better for it! Great deconstruction.
This be great for jewelry and other campaign. Awesome work.
brilliant and timeless photographyc art 👍✨🏆
You are killin it. This is superb!
Yes. So much yes. These are wonderful. I don't have the opportunity to shoot a lot right now, but so grateful to be storing these inspiring ideas and getting motivated to use them, Lindsay. Thanks for sharing
You are so kind. Absolutely my pleasure and happy to have you here!
Excellent posing nice thought.
Thank you Lindsay for the sharing.
Lindsay, this is soooo good! You're amazing! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for educating me❤
Thank you!
I love it but for this one straight out of the camera in color was already perfect for me ❤
This be good for New Years or special party announcement.
Amazing!!!
Thanks for sharing! Great!
Love it

Wow, thank you!

Beautiful shot, few photographers succeed to match the vintage styling with the whole set, your technic is on point
Love it I bet she does too
So great ty
Just one word: GORGEOUS! Compliments! I wish Lindsay decided to come to Italy for a workshop! I would totally go.
I spoke in Milan in February!

I love it, Thanks
Stunning

xo glad u enjoyed

I like that. I really need to work on my short lighting.
I don't do it often, but when I do I love the drama.
super

I don't provide high res image links sorry. This will likely end up on my instagram. :)

So glad that I can be of inspiration and help! :)
I absolutely love the image Lindsay. Quick question...when you contoured the cheek...was this just a dodge and burn?
yep!
I think the light is too diffused here for the Hollywood look. Back in the day those hot lights created a sort of glimmer on the skin
The styling was inspired by. Feel free to check out my dedicated Old Hollywood lighting guide: lindsayadler.photo/oldhollywood filled with hard light.
hi Lindsay, learned a lot from you. Thank you for making a difference in my life. Could you share which canon printer you are using? Thanks. Vlad
I usually use pro 1000. just got a pro 300 though!
chapter 2. the bw conversion process. ?
I love this photo. Just so stunning.
In the before shot I found myself staring at the breast that was "exposed" trying to figure out what I was seeing (looked like a bra). Would love to see how you corrected that.
There are also 4 locks on the door ...
What are you talking about?
can we get these kind of shot using just 2 studio lights?
I think you could do something basic with 2 lights, and 3 would give you a bit more control and refinement. xo.
My god i love lindsay but the product placement is going crazy Please think in you followers you know this can be achieved with 2 lights. sad that money or free stuff go in the way of learning
I'd probably say 3 lights would be necessary for sure.
