Video

What about bride’s white wedding dress & groom’s dark suit. Stagger the subjects to vary the exposure? Reflectors and flags?

Fantastic trick! Is there a way to only trigger the TTL flash and not the popup flash at the same time?

Good video

Do you have a video on Owner Compensation + Profit?

What if you don’t drive, but you Uber on a regular basis? Do you add that as well?

Get back into the game. Thank u for this tip. So is it correct to assume that when the on-camera flash is being used a commander, it does not give light? The only light will be from the off camera strobes?

I'm so glad I got to see your greeting card, the full bleed photo on the front is such a great idea for them to have an actual 5x7 instead of all those ones with the graphic design on the front. Thank you Heather! I hope you're doing well!

Ah yes, we all were "natural light" photographers when we were beginners LOL

This is my favorite go-to video to remind me how to set up my off-camera flash in a hurry.

Many thanks, Heather. Great video.

Many thanks Heather. Super cool advice.

The electronic slave been around over 50 years!!! It's not only triggered by your flash, it's triggered by any flash!!!

I was just sent this link by a friend that I met this year at ImagingUSA. This is still super helpful information that I didn't know prior to going. I was blessed to meet a TEAM of incredible photographers that I'm in contact with regularly. I love it

Nic study madam

What companies do you use to print your press printed books and photo paper books?

Excellent ! Thank you Heath for sharing! This experience I will take on board a.s.a.p. shooting combo concerts in mid-size rooms! Awesome!

Awesome video. Thanks

how to adjust the photo if its not in the middle and how to crop

Is the cpp certified nationally and internationally?

Is there a way to get the on camera flash to not fire and only work as the commander?

What is the thickness of the paper in the final album for the couple?

This is a big motivator. Fellow member. Thank you!

metal is great for astrophotography

I'm middle east asian and here different skin tone of people and I realised it and difficult in dark skin in low light without extra equipment, hard to get juicy skin tone from yellow greenish skin tone with zero red or false purple-red type of tone !! can not correct even with HSL because red does have also have various colour in it !!

And for anyone else watching who also wants correct information about whats suppose to be the best of the recommendations, these are actually called Keyhole Hangers. Not Double clips.

Just say how to do it, without all the "whaaaat!"

Do you think photography jobs will appreciate having a CPP when applying for them?

Great video! I am a photographer, currently trying to move away from working off of my external hard drive and working off of a cloud, but backing up to external hard drives (in addition to backing up to Backblaze). I do not want to work off of my computer hard drive as it slows it down eventually and ages it quickly. Do you work off of your hard drive and manually move files to Dropbox? Or do you keep them in that Desktop application folder on your computer and just make sure everything is always offline/on the cloud unless you need to work on it? So for instance if you first cull images into Lightroom, do you have a folder on your hard drive for those files that you copy to your Dropbox folder or do you keep everything in Dropbox that you make sure is either local or offline? I just do not want to have to do all of this stuff manually in the chance I miss some files. Is there a setting to copy all of your computer hard drive files to Dropbox automatically that you use? I know they allowed backup like that on the higher plans I tried out. I had some major issues with Dropbox this year from the smart sync feature where it really slowed down another computer I was using because of the file duplication. It seemed to glitch and then duplicate folders inside other folders. It was a mess and really set me off Dropbox. It is a long story but essentially I know I cannot work directly off of Dropbox because you need to toggle the local/online only and I do not like that it duplicates files onto my hard drive and doesn't seem trustworthy. Have you ever worked directly off of a cloud? Google Drive for instance? Or anything else? Such a long comment, lol thank you for reading!

This only works with Nikon flashes I suppose. I use Godox flashes (cheaper) triggered by an XPro trigger, a combination which gives a lot of possibilities.

Thank you for addressing this topic because it comes up quite often in the field and folks need to know how to be flexible for skin tones.

hey Heather, I seen you haven't posted any recent videos. everything ok?

ur verbal di·ar·rhe·a ---> is nauseating 🤢🤮

Hi there, I just found your channel in researching the CPP CIrriculum offered by PPA. I’m an amateur photographer for over 40 years. I retired last summer from 26 year public service career and have made the decision to invest (and believe) in myself as a landscape and nature photographer/creator. I would like to also write books for children to get them excited about protecting and nurturing nature and wildlife. I am very free spirited and don’t use tripod or flash, but my goal is to be completely comfortable with all phases of photography since I did purchase a decent tripod flash and pro grade high-res camera (not mirrorless). Thanks very much, I look forward to viewing your content and listening to your wisdom. Ps - I had this experience (ie the bad print) with a local supposedly pro print photo shop. I am glad I decided not to go local and really am impressed with Printique’s results with my images.

What is the highest quality type of album and cost?

How do you feel about having one page with both Color and black& white images? I'm on the fence, I've done it before but others commented to me it was distracting. What are your thoughts?

That's awesome! I do family portrait photography in Toronto :)

I never sell print and barely print anything. I want that to change. But how in the world do I get them to buy print when so many people already think I'm high, NOT! Is there a scale to go by on sizes and what to charge?

I just found your video 5 minutes ago, I like what you’re saying here. I’m an older guy retired from my career and doing professional photography part time. I shoot corporate events, weddings, family sessions, portraits, real estate, organized league youth sports. I’ve always given out the jpeg files and I’m wanting to quit doing that. My shooting fees are too low and I rarely sell print orders because people are cheap and would rather go to a store for prints. I warm them of the poor quality they’ll receive from store prints but most do it regardless. I need to learn how to set up my website so clients can view the images, pick what they want and I make the order, which of course gives me that profit. All I’ve gotten thus far is money from the shoot fee, ….. print sales have been slim. Help😧

Really nice!

Would like to know the steps I think you said you submit your candidacy then get the information eduction to take the tests? Or can you review before submission?

What do you think of the new york institute of ohotography.. is it any good , or just a waste of time and effort.

Do they cover laptops?

Hi Heather, do you think is worth to use succesware in 2022? Thanks!

Hey Heather, I really enjoyed your video expounding on this! I’m jumping into photography and am basically half way through my second year. On one hand I'm towards the end of starting up my own business and putting the front end work on the business side of things (obtaining an EIN # and website and all that jazz) but I’m also in the hiring process with a wedding photography company that is wanting to put all the potential candidates through the cpp exam to make sure everyone knows their stuff (I definitely dont know my stuff...) and I’m pretty pumped about taking the class! Hearing a little of your experience made me much more excited about the process to get to the exam since it seems like the process I’m going through will be similar to yours with your group of 6. I plan on studying my butt off but was also wondering with your experience and rubbing shoulders with other photographers new and seasoned, if there were any particular subjects or topics that you saw that consistently tripped up the newer photographers taking the exam?

bayphoto has 20% off sales for metal prints a few times a year :) Usually right after Christmas

Audio is low. It's hard for me to hear it. The critique I ordered had no audio volume at all. This seems to be a continuing issue with PPA videos. I hope PPA can adjust this in the future.

I’ve seen this and it was so memorable, great tip!!

Hi Heather!.. Loved you approach and atitude to the subject. New to the channel! As I have been going over several topics and one of them is to get some sort of certification. My journey is at the point of not having a full professional business, but I’m not an amateur for sure. This is just to give you an idea, as I profoundly respect both terms. I do travel to NYC often and even thought to enroll in a course with NYPI and while searching crossed over your channel. I do have a question that the answer might “kill” one of the possibilities towards my certification endeavor. To apply to a CPP, a US citizenship is required? Thank you for the friendly atmosphere and very much down to earth on the channel! Looking forward for future content! Brilliant! Cheers/ Carlos

Thanks. Love your videos.
