I have to congratulate you Julia. In my 20 years as a photographer I´ve never seen someone use the human anatomy to explain the refractance of light on the skin.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so sorry I remember seeing your comment and I thought I replied then, but just saw that there is no reply. Thank you again!
@@julia_kuzmenko Julia where can I find more info on this refractance topic? how did you find that out?
Hi Gustavo, I studied at a professional photography college in Melbourne, Australia for 2 years and have been working as a professional photographer for over 10 years, so this is all from my formal education + my practice. I have a video course titled Studio Beauty where I included a lot of information: retouchingacademy.com/product/studio-beauty/
I just watched this video and I think some of the previous commenters have missed the point. It's not about finding the correct exposure. If I understand correctly, it's about finding the optimum transition from highlight to mid-tone, and from mid-tone to shadow, and the amount of area that each of these light levels cover on the models face. a very subtle and specific topic. Thank you! Newly subscribed!
Yes, you are absolutely correct, thank you Roy!
Юлия, как всегда информация подана так четко и просто, спасибо! И этот мягкий и успокаивающий голос.... :)
Beautiful work all around: the explanation, your work, and the assignment.
Hello Julia. Thank you very much for this tutorial. It is very helpful.
You are literally the only lady-photographer I know, who actually understands and uses lights. All the rest so called "popular" youtube and instagram girls-photographers have no idea about anything, except lightroom software. Nice videos. Subscribed!
That was amaizing...
Tomorrow I take a few models in the studio and I 'll try your tutorial
I will respond again and tell you how it was :)
Thank u
Hi Julia,
I am so happy to find you on UA-cam! I have read articles that you have written on Google and just purchased the 100mm 2.8 Canon lens USM. I will be playing around with it to try to master it as best as I can, though shooting is just a hobby for me. Thanks for inspiring and I have just subscribed :-)
think i lost my jaw, thanks for sharing, amazing work.
Thank you Julia....Thats really helpful....I ll try that ASAP !
Thanks this is so helpful you are amazing Julia !
Wow. This was fantastic. Just got a new subscriber. Love your work.
Thank you for explaining this! Very well done
Great tutorial.. you mention "take a few testshots" and try to find the power setting for correct exposure. This is where your incident lightmeter should come in. No chimping on the camera LCD. Off course if you don't do this often enough and just want to try it a couple of times you don't need to make the investment, but if you do it often enough.. the light meter is your "measuring tape" for light :)
Julia, thanks for the reply. At least you guys learned what a light meter is and how you can use it in college. Nowadays photography students don't know what a light meter is. The same as a Guide number.. a thing of the past. "When you understand your lighting"and shoot a lot... of course there comes a moment in time that you "just know" what your exposure should be and you can dial it in very fast. So is it absolutely necessary to use a lightmeter ? Absolutely not. Does it give anyone the fastest path to correct exposure ? Absolutely yes. Keep in mind that lightmeters nowadays are quite more advanced than the older ones. In the sekonic meters you can actually store a profile for your camera's sensor under different iso's and lighting conditions. That way you can always see when composing complicated scenes how you can max out your camera's dynamic range. There are quite a few high profile pro's that swear by their lightmeters : Frank Doorhof, Joe Brady, Tobey Corbell and just to name a few. I agree that once you're good enough, you won't need a meter, but not needing it and prefering to use one are different things. Also if you use mostly the same setup all the time and conditions stay pretty much the same you obviously know after the first shoot what your settings are and you can fire and forget. But if you shoot often in many different locations under different conditions with different lighting.. it sure is the fastest way to correct exposure and you can get creative from there.
Amazing, thanks for sharing it!
You are my role model Julia. I just want to be as good as you some day.
nicely explained - well done
You're the best
such a great job! спасибо
Very helpful video ;)
Will this course help a beginner
Hi Julia. Awesome work. I follow you on Instagram and you continually blow me away. In regards to this video, what size beauty dish would you recommend for this type of work, and what colour dish? Silver or white, diffused/not diffused? Thanks. Keith.
Julia Kuzmenko McKim Thanks Julia
