I just took on a big project based on what you wrote and presented in this clip. 98% of the pictures are old wine bottles that I wanted to present in a professional way and that can be sold. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it. 🖤
Blessings Karl, I really love the fact that you used your 5D and not a high end medium format. Sometimes people feel that it's all about your expensive gear. You're a man that study and practice to get where you are. Much love!
Good point you make...Karl is really just trying to encourage people... ultimately it's not really about the gear you have but it's about principles surrounding photography that you use. I used to purchase so much gear it was insane but none of the gear did anything to make my images turn out better. I've been fortunate either to use or have been on set with some of the most expensive gear I could only imagine and it's pretty much all the same. It boils down to the higher end gear is going to be bullet proof built for production environments and anything that they can throw at it.... for strobes for instance Profoto built like a tank and can be used for ten hours a day everyday without failing. One of my favorite pieces of gear is my iPhone because I have it all of the time and if I can figure out how to compose an image with it... it makes it easier for when I have my gear to compose the image. Like you say just keep on studying... I didn't go to art school but I take excellent images..and what is helping me is going back and studying art history, typography, and graphic design history. Somehow studying the fundamentals has given me a fresh take on my photography and is teaching me that equipment is actually way down on the list... the creativity comes from the concepts and ideas you have. Keep up.the good work and keep studying.
New photographers shouldn't let big brain ego enlist photographers get to them. You can still achieve high quality photos with $20 speed lights, a starter camera, and very well planned stage and background. This guy will always show you the way
Expensive gear and a big studio helps, but it doesnt matter if you lack the creativity! Really glad I stumbled over your channel! Thumbs up, and a great thanks for your effort in helping others!
Its always a treat to watch your photography educational clips. You have got such command over your specialty. And its actually the knowledge of the camera, lens, lights, props, photoshop etc that results in this marvelous image at the end. You are the master.
You are such an ENORMOUS BLESSING!! Thank you so much for providing this valuable information for free to us! You are so incredibly experienced and teach so well!
Another great video for some terrific tips mate. You are actually the first video i watched on youtube over 10 years ago teaching me landscape and fashion basics. Yowzah i feel old. Really enjoy your channel.
Karl, your work is absolutely incredible, and you’re an excellent photography educator. If you produced a series of courses lighting entirely with speedlites, and affordable strobes similar to the Godox AD200 and AD400 pro and common affordable (let’s say Amazon acquired) modifiers, I for one would subscribe to your paid education and I’m sure many others would as well. Thank you so much for the time, energy, enthusiasm and careful technical detail you put into these UA-cam videos. Great job!
Thanks but what you don't realise is that many of the course on KTE are with speedlites and many of the others just use barebulb studio lighting with my own made modifiers so for the most part you simply have to imagine swapping those bare bulb lamp heads with any other brand or speedlites. The physics of what I'm teaching remains the same and it's interchangeable across any brand.
@@VisualEducationStudio Hi there. Not sure if it was really Karl who replied or one of his team, but I just subscribed to the annual plan. Karl's work is incredible and I'm sure I will learn a ton!
@@rbvan Hi, yes it was me that replied. I reply to 90% of the comments on youtube as they are often technical in nature. Thanks very much for signing up I'm sure you will enjoy the platform and do join us on some of the live shows. All the best Karl.
@@VisualEducationStudio Thanks so much Karl. I already watched your Intro to Lighting and the food shoot at your Dad’s house. Was laughing at your joke about your Dad having a “Russian lady on his table” 😂. Cheers and stay safe!
Hi Karl, A brilliant tutorial on how to shoot Professional Product Photography that could only be Karl Taylor, a True Professional in every sense of the Word. Thank you for sharing this tutorial with us Karl, Truly as always a Pleasure watching a True Professional at Work
Have to give it to you, you take lighting to an extreme level. Love your eye for detail. IMO it's all about the knowledge where to put the lights , basically you have taken the shot already in your mind, this is merely the execution. Since you have a lot of equipment at your disposal, I wonder do you ever add lighting in post (PS or LR/C1) ? Thanks for sharing !!
Thank you RS and yes you are correct I've nearly always 'taken the shot in my mind'. Regarding adding lighting in post, no this isn't something I often do. Generally I only exaggerate or reduce what I already put there with B&D, or via a new layer and combined shot, the only shot I can remember where I 'fake' added a light was on the front right wing of the porsche shot on my commercial site. Cheers Karl.
Hi Karl great to see another of your "its not about having expensive gear" shoots - Im using speedlites and also LED lights for my work and Im often debating with myself per project the need for flash versus constant lights. Flash is great if one is not able to black out a room it gives that control oveer ambient, as well as being able to shoot at ISO 100 for noise free shots, whereas LED allows a what you see is what you get approach which can be easier and more fluid way of working, but with the lower power usually meeaning higher ISOs and higher noise. Today Im trying a whiskey bottle challenge and while its daytime Im going to use speedlites but later when dark will try LEDs and compare results for interest!
Hi John, you can do a lot with LED but for me it will always be flash because of the extra available power and the need to shoot people without blinding them. You can also apply a 'what you see is what you get' approach by using studio flash that have proportional modelling lights.
@@VisualEducationStudio thats a great point about blinding people with constant lights I have found that to be the case in my experience but it does make me wonder about those amazing old Hollywood shots from the likes of George Hurrell do you think the models/actors just had to accept and grin and bear the bright fresnel lamps back then or some technique that helped avoid
pretty sure i could duplicate the set up and shoot even without the modeling lamp feature of those speedlites, but holy CATS! i have no idea what you did in Ps afterwards. i really have no clue when it comes to that software (im primarily a Lr guy) and that 'quick overview' was certainly that!
wooo! I've never thought of using an ND Filter in the studio! Cool idea. Do you have any vids showing the difference it makes? Keen to try this out when I get my new R5 drop in filter adapter!
Very nice vid, however I think that for this type of shots it's very important to use a speedlite with modelling light (actually, only a few have such characteristic), while for portraits it is not necessary. What do you think about this? Even if it's possible to shoot products without modelling light, I think it would be a nightmare!
love this video! yeah, im late to the game but still made it here! i couldnt follow what you did in PS because a) ive only ever tried using PS Elements (about 8 years ago) b) i wasnt sure what you were working on, it went so quickly except i DID see you cloned the bottling information from the cap. i know LR (although it seems a lot of people do HEAPS more work in post than what i do!) again, great video!
I've been into all things photography for a solid 3 years. I'm a subscriber to many photography youtube channels. I'm a member of Dave Morrow photography (which I HIGHLY recommend) landscape photographer. I have 3 canon cameras, all the lenses, and all the studio gear needed to shoot just about anything on the planet. I have shot events, parties, studio portraits, fashion, landscape, wildlife, macro, etc. etc. I'm a member or subscriber to several Adobe Lightroom/Photoshop training channels. I'm having a lot of fun and learning a lot from many of these avenues. If I were to give advice to anyone serious about either their photography as an art or business...the #1 thing I would recommend, 90% out of 100% of the learning tools available on the planet, would be Karl Taylor's education system. There are many, many great and wonderful teaching tools available on the internet these days, and they all should be pursued. But in my opinion and experience photography requires a huge foundation be laid to become a true and great artist and/or a true and great photography business person. No one is addressing the FOUNDATION--the foundation of not only gear, and technique, and approach to various photography genre, but also of the attitude needed, the discipline, the hard work ethic needed, and the openness of mind and fortitude to pursue each student's artistic insight and taste. As a member of Karl Taylor Education I found Karl's teaching system to be the most comprehensive and complete foundational systems there is. Frankly, there is no other system designed to take you from kindergarten to graduation. Karl's experience and passion is obvious. His lighting techniques are artistic, whether he is teaching studio portrait, fashion, or food photography. His guests are experts and he uses them to help teach his students. All the teachings overlap to some degree. It is all important.....and frankly, it is all very interesting and entertaining to a degree that it doesn't matter if one is going to ever shoot in that genre--there is still something to learn there. I really think that Karl Taylor Education is the best tool available to the any photographer today.
Hi Stephen, thank you for this as we just can't beat testimonials like this directly from customers. I'm very happy to hear you are enjoying the platform, the team and I are working really hard making it better and better and we have some great new things in the pipeline coming soon for our members.
Great ideas Karl. I actually already used the bottle frosting method before as I used to build 1/35 scale model terrain. A PVA solution plus ink simulates water nicely. I have a job for an optician soon, and I need to photo a large number of spectacles, will your courses cover this? If so ill be signing up very soon. All the best.
Hi Leonardo, we look forward to welcoming you aboard and you enjoying some of top level content and live shows. Yes we have several classes on shooting glasses, sunglass and similar scale products.
Quick question if you don’t mind. Do all flashes / strobe / speed light always go off at the same time when triggered for a shot Or are there situations when they are timed to go off at a delay or interval from another flash going off?
@@VisualEducationStudio thank you. I will have to learn the reasons for having them delayed then. Having them all come on at once to light the subject for the duration of the camera shutter speed , that I understand. Having the camera take 1 shot with different flashes, need to find out more.
Awesome Karl as every time! Is there any info how much light is transmitted through frosted acrylic sheet? For example Lee 216 has 36% light transmission. Thanks you
Hi Tomas I'm afraid I'm not the sort of person who would have even known the transmission value of LEE 216 let alone a peice of frosted acrylic I'm the sort of person who just does everything by eye, I try it I assess the results and then I adjust it.
Several things.. details. The spray on drops. Looks like only on the forward facing surface? I have an ancient decades old Norman system.. trying to use it more now, still works. Also have speed lights. I’m a little poor currently, but I think your lighting course is one I really see value in. Just trying to decide if I commit. I have some product ideas I’m working on and I want to push my limits and learn some professional level solutions. Need to try a few things then ask more detailed questions.
Hallo Karl, what is that Spay that you use for the Rockhard Kondensationslook? You mix something in the Glas an spray on the Bottle and before that, you use another Spray. What is that too? Hope for an answer :) Thanks for your perfekt Videos, love it so much!!!
Hi Karl, really loving your video's giving me the right input to my work. One question for using speedlights with softboxes. What are your recommendation for using the built in scatter and zoom together with a softbox or behind diffusion foils. Thanks
Hi, you need to get over to our site to understand the physical properties of light and how it works, diffuses, angles or reacts through various materials and modifiers. That's not something I can answer in a YT comment. Once you've learned this knowledge you'll know the answers for yourself for nearly every occassion.
Glad this pop up again. I can adapt most of it for personal work.
I just took on a big project based on what you wrote and presented in this clip. 98% of the pictures are old wine bottles that I wanted to present in a professional way and that can be sold.

Battery packs? For What?
Those speedlites have lithium battery , dont need battery pack.
I can't stop admiring your work, Karl. Thanks a ton for your lessons.

Great
great video
Thanks!
Nice Loved the lighting in this simple but effective
Hi there. May I ask: this was done with 3 flashes, right? But are the spots on the label also flash? I couldn't work it out. Thanks a million.
Yes, it is I showed how I made a snoot out of cardboard for that.
Thank you sir
you're welcome
Great marketing yourself too - Bravo
Ahh yes marketing, wouldn't be much point in doing anything on youtube if we weren't allowed to do that.
Brill!
it's not the equipment it's the knowledge of how light works which takes years of practice.
Hallo Karl, what is that Spay that you use for the Rockhard Kondensationslook? You mix something in the Glas an spray on the Bottle and before that, you use another Spray. What is that too? Hope for an answer :) Thanks for your perfekt Videos, love it so much!!!
Hi Berthold please see the info here: karltayloreducation.com/product-photography-courses/
Hey you have links to everything that's in the video?
You're awesome!
You are!
Nice video. What did you do to put permanent sweat on the outside of the bottle?
Special mixture, ingredients and instructions can be found on our site.
Thank you for showing a good example. btw, what is the filter for? what happens if you shoot without?
That was a Neutral Density filter (like a pair of sunglasses) as the light coming straight from the back was too bright.
Hi Karl, really loving your video's giving me the right input to my work.
One question for using speedlights with softboxes.
