70's!!! That period I was born and that period still resonate with me a lot. So colorful! I would definitely try to create something in 70's disco mood. Speaking of disco, I will need the lights indeed! Thanks for the great video!. 👍
I think I will use it for modern times , I love the the bright light of Godox AD400 and i’am getting bored of my old but well used Bowens flashes. Thanks for your inspiring video Sarah!
18th-century Venice is a truly delightful era to choose from among so many others. Not only is the time period of great historical interest. The costumes created here suit the soft lighting too produced by the Godox AD600 and vice versa. Love the many choices presented and, of course, your images always blow me away, Sarah. Thank you. 😊
The early dynastic period would definitely present an exciting opportunity to blend movement and reflection through the blend of skin tones, precious metals, and linens. Thank you for the inspiration.
The 70s. Because of the type of music and style of clothes at the time. Either way, the last set of photos are those types one would love to frame and hang on a wall. Great job Sarah 💯
I'd choose baroque art period for this one. I love how Tintoretto and Caravaggio handled the light on faces while leaving almost in darkness other places on the same frame. The light was very contrasty and pinpointed, so it'd be very challenging to remake it using strobes. These guys were masters of light!! Thanks Sarah for this inspirational videos, please keep them coming!
The 1920’s as the still and look is always scrolls stopping love the feel of glamour from that style. And for me feels like the birth of photography that inspired portraits going forward
The Wild West! I love the colours of the rugged landscapes, the atmospheric dusty saloons and cowboys and the ‘glamour’ of the saloon girls! (And country’s cool again!) 😊
As an Italian I can't choose anything else but the Renaissance. The details of those dresses and gowns are made to be enhanced and glorified by Godox lighting tools in fine art photography. 😍
medival era would be perfect! you can craft a scenery with beautiful dresses and even armor. Those 2 toghere would make a perfect clash between the outfits
I would choose 1930-40's. Always loved the aesthetic from that era and would love to try and master some of the lighting techniques used back in the days.
I would choose the 18th century, Rococo, this period for me is ideal for opulent and extravagant portraits, with ornate costumes, elaborate hairstyles, and lavish interior decorations. Pastel colors and floral details would fit perfectly into a refined and feminine aesthetic. Great video Sarah! Greetings!
I loved the fashion of the 1960s and 1970s in the Oakland San Francisco Bay Area. It was a time of radical change and self-expression, reflected in the fashion of the time. I guess I'm showing my age here!
I love the renaissance period with all drawing and dressing it is amazing to recreate,in french: j'adore l'époque de renaissance avec toutes les tableaux et dessins de l'époque et le style vestimentaire
I would choose the Victorian era for a fine art portrait shoot. This period, known for its grandeur and elegance, aligns beautifully with the romance and timelessness I strive to capture in my work. The Victorian era offers rich visual aesthetics-lavish dresses, intricate lace details, and the opulence of regal interiors-elements that translate into a luxurious and dreamy backdrop for modern-day portrait subjects
Renaissance. They'd love the dramatic flair and the elaborate outfits, not to mention the intellectual backdrop that celebrates both art and science. Plus, the thought of being immortalized in a setting filled with scrolls, perhaps a hint of futuristic tech, all bathed in that classic Renaissance light, would tickle their fancy to no end. It would be a portrait that captures their essence: a blend of humor, rebelliousness, and an endless quest for knowledge.
I would definitely chose the medieval Scotland. I must confess I was impacted with the Photografy and customs of the series Outlander and would love to recreate this period of the history on a similar way Aimee Spinks convey the phothografy to make the viewer be transported to that fascinating period of time

I would choose the late Renaissance period, particularly the style of Caravaggio, because of his remarkable ability to paint light and shadow. His use of chiaroscuro creates a powerful, dramatic atmosphere in his works, bringing a sense of realism and intensity to his subjects. This dramatic interplay of light is something I would love to capture in a fine art portrait shoot.
Amazing as always! Simple, clear and inspiring! Already bought 165 godox white umbrella with a diffuser. Trying to find a place for that monster at location) I would choose 50s with their pop colora and big ads)
I would choose the Konbaung Dynasty period from Myanmar’s history for a fine art portrait shoot. This era is known for its rich cultural heritage, traditional attire like the longyi, and intricate golden headdresses. The royal court’s majestic style and the elegance of classical Burmese art would bring a beautiful and regal vibe to a fine art portrait. It would be amazing to capture the essence of Myanmar’s history, blending tradition with timeless beauty!
Probably the Sumerian Renaissance period. They say that's when a lot of cultural advances happened. I already have the trigger though. I really need the lights😊
the 1950s, during the vibrant Sophiatown (Kofifi) era, South Africa's culture was defined by captivating attire that reflected joy and celebration. a period when many of the country's notable artists, politicians, and activists flourished, pushing for a free South Africa. This era not only influenced but also paved the way for the diverse lifestyle and cultural landscape that characterizes modern South Africa. The attire alone is unique and amazing.
I’d suggest the Victorian era (1837-1901). This period is rich in texture, drama, and opulence, making it ideal for artistic portraiture. The Victorian era's elaborate fashion, with its intricate lace, corsets, bustles, and layers of fabric, lends itself well to a highly detailed and textured visual style.
I would love to try the roaring 20's flapper style girl. The woman seemed so excited and energetic with their new ideas about how to live and broke away from the old boring Victorian image of womanhood.
Mine would be the 20’th century, start with the elegant roar twenties. Cause it elegance in a time when violence from crime was all over and you still had a sense beauty in life.
I’d choose the 1930s as a theme for fine art portraiture because it was such a unique decade. You’ve got the elegance of Art Deco style mixed with the hardships of the Great Depression, which gives a lot of contrast and depth. Plus, the fashion and architecture from that era are iconic. It’s a great way to explore themes like resilience and change, all while capturing a really visually striking period in history. By the way - which backdrop did you use?
I would go with the 1950s to 1960s because the vintage period and how the dresses looked back, then that would be my shoot to do because I like the dresses looked back then.
i would do a zulu traditional fine art shoot, the reason i choose it is because it tell the tails of our African roots and it displays the beauty of our African culture
I think I would want to do a 1960's/70's inspired futuristic look - how that during that time they thought the future would look - or in the style of Gerry Anderson - Space 1999/Captain Scarlet/Thunderbirds
I'd choose Napoleonic wars, so many different uniforms and dresses, as well as a transition between old XVIII century fashion and a more modern XIX century fashion
oops I missed a few! In those ones that don't specify it, I'm using a 70-200m 2.8 Sony GM, usually between 70 and 120mm. All the others are the primes specified. Thanks for watching!
7000-600 B.C.E. The lost civilization Mohenjo-Daro was an ancient city of the Indus Valley Civilization that settled along the Indus River in modern-day Pakistan.
I'd choose some ancient civilization. I feel that as far as fine art photography is concerned it's a very overlooked period and yet it has so much potential! Personally, I'd go with ancient Greece, because I love high key portraits, and Greece is all about color white (white robes, white marble, white temples, columns) and for Greek vibes yu don't need much props or sophisticated closthes. However, ancient Egypt could also be very interesting.
I would love to create portraits from the Pop art movement of Modern art. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Andy Warhol and Roy LichtensteinI would explore colour and drama influence by popular culture.
For a fine art portrait shoot, I would choose the Viking Age because it's a period that captures raw strength, primal fury, and untamed nature. The idea of portraying powerful warriors, their faces hardened by battle, with a backdrop of harsh Scandinavian landscapes would make for intense and dramatic imagery. Incorporating elements like blood, bones, skulls, and ancient weapons would add a visceral, almost mythic quality to the shoot-something that evokes both history and legend. It’s a chance to blend the brutality and heroism of the era, creating portraits that are both fierce and timeless, reminiscent of award-winning Viking art
I really don’t like these tutorials in the series. You just rushed through so many different lightning set ups that honestly it’s more on entertaining purposes than on actually teaching something. You should concentrate on one lightning set up for a clip of 10 minutes and go in detail about the angles, the amount of light for each flash and so on but obviously you want just give a teaser that people book you’re overpriced monthly fee for your classes.
Always love a shoot from Sarah! Well done.
Thank you, I love doing them!
70's!!! That period I was born and that period still resonate with me a lot. So colorful! I would definitely try to create something in 70's disco mood. Speaking of disco, I will need the lights indeed! Thanks for the great video!. 👍
ooh that's a great idea
Wonderful photos. The Scottish inspired ones are my favourites because of the lighting and atmosphere.
I love the medieval look - it really speaks to me.
I think I will use it for modern times , I love the the bright light of Godox AD400 and i’am getting bored of my old but well used Bowens flashes. Thanks for your inspiring video Sarah!
Amazing Photos. Fine Art. Love the balance of light. Incredible talent.
thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it x
The photos look great, love the lighting setup, and the outfits. I see why Godox is popular. I have used strobes. Love it.
I would choose the renaissance. The elegance of this time is unique!😍
I love Art Deco. It is so clean and interesting time period in art.
I would choose the renaissance. I love the dresses and the mood of this time😍

Ohh my gosh!! It's a dream to be able to control the light so perfectly! ❤❤❤ These are exquisite portraits 😍😍😍😍
The 70s. Because of the type of music and style of clothes at the time. Either way, the last set of photos are those types one would love to frame and hang on a wall. Great job Sarah 💯
😃
The 80’s!! I would love to recreate the look of the 80’s with some friends and do a photo session!
80s girl here, would love that
Same!
Amazing set of Pictures! I would love Dark and moody times of Caravaggio with shiny armor and castles and gunpowder fire.
Great video, I would choose the 1920's era. I enjoy the clothing, and decor. I am also a fan of black and white as well.
I'd choose baroque art period for this one. I love how Tintoretto and Caravaggio handled the light on faces while leaving almost in darkness other places on the same frame.

Thank you, great ideas. I think with some grids, snoots and flags it could work.
Thanks for watching!
The 1920’s as the still and look is always scrolls stopping love the feel of glamour from that style. And for me feels like the birth of photography that inspired portraits going forward
Greek Classical Period! I think the love of arts and culture then is amazing.
The Wild West! I love the colours of the rugged landscapes, the atmospheric dusty saloons and cowboys and the ‘glamour’ of the saloon girls! (And country’s cool again!) 😊
Fine Art portrait lends itself well to the style of the renaissance masters so that would be my choice
Beautifully done!
I love shooting with Old Hollywood lighting. I'm a sucker for that dramatic vintage look.
As an Italian I can't choose anything else but the Renaissance. The details of those dresses and gowns are made to be enhanced and glorified by Godox lighting tools in fine art photography. 😍
Fabulous Shots!
❤
The 1960s, in sunny California. Good Times. I love the fashion from this period.
Oh you guys are giving me such inspiration for upcoming shoots!
medival era would be perfect! you can craft a scenery with beautiful dresses and even armor. Those 2 toghere would make a perfect clash between the outfits
Very inspiring! Fantastic photographer! I would choose the 1970's.
I would choose 1930-40's. Always loved the aesthetic from that era and would love to try and master some of the lighting techniques used back in the days.
Edwardian Period and Pioneer New Zealand ends up being amazing for me.
I would choose the 18th century, Rococo, this period for me is ideal for opulent and extravagant portraits, with ornate costumes, elaborate hairstyles, and lavish interior decorations.
Pastel colors and floral details would fit perfectly into a refined and feminine aesthetic.
Great video Sarah!
Greetings!
thank you! xx
Renaissance for sure!!
I loved the fashion of the 1960s and 1970s in the Oakland San Francisco Bay Area. It was a time of radical change and self-expression, reflected in the fashion of the time. I guess I'm showing my age here!
I like classic Hollywood styles... Mainly, because I love to shoot Rembrandt style type of lighting... just like my favorite icon, George Hurrell!👍📸
Fabulous shots! 👏👏👏

Mine would be the 1920-1930. The art deco movement inspires me with so many shoots. From dramatic B&W to soft look of this period .
I would choose the Konbaung Dynasty period from Myanmar’s history for a fine art portrait shoot.

Wow sounds amazing!
I would go 16th century Japanese style. It‘s exotic, sophisticated, and gives many barely used looks.
Probably the Sumerian Renaissance period. They say that's when a lot of cultural advances happened. I already have the trigger though. I really need the lights😊
I will choose the Dutch Golden Age because I am fascinated by Rembrandt's paintings.
Thanks for sharing.

By the way - which backdrop did you use?
I would love a Greek or Roman time period. The art of the era is classic
I would go with the 1950s to 1960s because the vintage period and how the dresses looked back, then that would be my shoot to do because I like the dresses looked back then.
I would choose the 1920's because of all the beadwork on the dresses and how they provide sparkle. And the fringe and feathers would provide movement.
i would do a zulu traditional fine art shoot, the reason i choose it is because it tell the tails of our African roots and it displays the beauty of our African culture
would love to see that!
@@sarahedmunds i will definitely deliver
The post-war 40's hair and makeup in more contemporary suits mixing color and monochrome to make the models pop.
I would choose the feudal (Japan) period. Such elaborate clothing and armors for samurais.
baroque would be really interesting, they really had very intricate level of details and drama in all the artwork.
What a pleasant smile... Happy woman
I will chose definitely Roman Empire period.
1930s Industrial workers in Northern England. Capturing the environment and images where my grandparents would have worked.
Hi Sarah !
Nice job, as usual !
Are you using a new backdrop system by Godox ?
No, (although wouldn’t that be an idea) it’s a canvas I handpainted, clipped on to a pop-up support system left over from a photo booth at a wedding!
@@sarahedmunds Thanks Sarah 🙏
Mid 1960's was my choice to Shoot Artistic Photos. That Time Period was we were Growing in Innovationly and Humanly too..
I think I would want to do a 1960's/70's inspired futuristic look - how that during that time they thought the future would look - or in the style of Gerry Anderson - Space 1999/Captain Scarlet/Thunderbirds
It's the renaissance period.
Victorian England, hands down
I think the sixties era would be cool
I'd choose Napoleonic wars, so many different uniforms and dresses, as well as a transition between old XVIII century fashion and a more modern XIX century fashion
Stylized pinups so that would be the ‘70s?
Was the shot done in such a hurry pace as the background music?
I would love to do the Han Dynasty for my fine art shoot, as I love the intricate clothing and jewelry of the that time period
😍
Please always add information about lens that you are using (and the exact mm parameters in case of using zoom lenses)
oops I missed a few! In those ones that don't specify it, I'm using a 70-200m 2.8 Sony GM, usually between 70 and 120mm. All the others are the primes specified. Thanks for watching!
The 60s because the color and the different expressions of mod I could make great photos
7000-600 B.C.E. The lost civilization Mohenjo-Daro was an ancient city of the Indus Valley Civilization that settled along the Indus River in modern-day Pakistan.
The Scottish Look.
I'd choose some ancient civilization. I feel that as far as fine art photography is concerned it's a very overlooked period and yet it has so much potential!

However, ancient Egypt could also be very interesting.
Although times from the past live in our imagination, I would choose a time in the future because I am a creator and a dreamer in my essence.
I would love to create portraits from the Pop art movement of Modern art. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Andy Warhol and Roy LichtensteinI would explore colour and drama influence by popular culture.
I already did my comment but I would like to know how you guys will contact the winner

2040 bc we will have some autonomous safe cybercabs running around !
The Regency Period...Pride and Pejudice.
