    I dread flash photography! This video is very useful, however I have a couple question about doing flash photography.
    1. When you say to bounce the flags off something neutral, where should you position the flash? Should it be placed behind that camera or in front of the scene in the darkest corner?
    2. When you are presenting a client with their photos, do ever have a mix of flash photos and HDR ? Or do you just stick to one style?

    • @AndreiRestrepo
      @AndreiRestrepo  Рік тому

      It’s definitely time consuming!
      1. Depends, every scene is different. The best place to start is to bounce it directly off the overhead ceiling because it’s typically white and won’t give you any color cast. The farther from the ceiling or wall, the softer the light will be. Just a matter of experimenting
      2. Just HDR now, too much volume for me to personally edit and blend flash photos

    Thank you so much for this video! Definitely helped me. I’m a real estate agent and looking to add extra income with real estate photography.

    • @AndreiRestrepo
      @AndreiRestrepo  2 роки тому +1

      Hey Tyierra! Thanks for the comment, glad it was helpful! If I understand you correctly, you totally can! You can use a speed lite with a trigger and use it like an off camera flash system. I would avoid using a speed lite on camera, you’re very limited as far as where the light hits and gets pretty unflattering results.

    Thanks man, amazing tips as always! Can you suggest me one thing please? I use a Sony a6000 and I shoot with bracketing but with this model of camera you can shoot 5 images only up to 0.7Ev difference and over 0.7 only 3 images (they limited the software…) so I shoot 3.0Ev3 instead of 2.0Ev3, but when there are very bright lights or bright windows I get very overexposed lights /windows even after merging the photos in Lrc with Lr enfuse. I even tried to drop the starting photo Ev by -1 but still the lights/windows gets too much over exposed, what can I do? Can’t really figure it out. Thanks a lot!

      Hey Oliver! Appreciate it greatly. For sure, I’m using the Brush Tool and using the “Dodge” preset which is just exposure at .25 I believe. So brushing over any area will lighten it up or any other effect you have on it. Make the feather size soft so it’s not harsh. Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks for watching!

    Love your channel and your content. You and I have the same idea when it comes to photography. Do a little more work in setting up the shot with camera settings and alot less time in editing. Im new to real estate photography, most of my experience is in astrophotography so you can understand my desire to spend less time editing. My question, I have a DJI Inspire 1 PRO camera drone I intend to use for aerial photography at some point. Did you go out ang get a commercial unmanned vehicle license to use your Mavic to shoot? How much trouble was getting it if you did?

      Hey Jessica! Thanks so much for the feedback! Yup, when it comes to RE, I try and get it as perfect as I can in-camera, to just add quick finishing touches in post! You need to look into getting your FAA part 107 license! However I would get started to see if it’s something you really want to do, and then look into the license. Realtors aren’t really going to ask you if you’re licensed in my experience! Thanks for watching!
