![3 Ways To Up Your Head Shot Game [LIGHTING TUTORIAL]](/img/n.gif)
I am new to photography and have been feeling a little discouraged. This video is exactly what i needed! Thank you!
I found your channel from your previous video(about the single light) and I watched a lot more but I came to your latest to comment that you definitely deserve way more people and audience to notice you. I like your content a lot but what made me stay is your character. Keep it up man
Wow thank you so much Evan! This is one of the nicest comments I've ever received :D thank you !!!
1-thinking it'll be easy
2-taxes are a PITA
3-undercharging
4-not asking enough questions
5-comparing yourself to others
6-thinking better gear means better photographer
7-not backing up content
8-shooting so much for others that you lose the essence of shooting for your own joy
9-obsessing over technical stuff
10-get it in writing
I find your entire channel extremely helpful, welcoming and educational. This has been the most helpful video for me as I am in the midst of setting up my own business and even with a degree in photography not really knowing where to begin. Thank you so much. You're work is exquisite especially your personal projects. Off now to take a shoot WITHOUT over thinking the technical side! haha
Wow! This is one of the best and most helpful photography video on CZcams. Learned a lot. Thank you, Tommy!!!
Thank you ever so much Tesal :D I'm glad you like it :D
I love that lamp in the background, camera left!
Good job mate, really like your videos and they way you present it. Thanks for making the effort!!
Hi Tommy, I've seen a couple of your videos now...I like your honesty. No bullshit... Keep it up...
I work professionally for most my life. And your channel is GREAT and full of truth. Just now subbed :)
Very good and honest thoughts, young man. I hope to you success!
There are many things photographers may not think about. You have great tips on how to get started and ideas to keep things in order. I have watched some of your other videos and what I like is that you are telling people to keep your freedom as a photographer which will help in creativity.
Other channels I’ve seen who do brilliant work have tunnel vision because they truly believe the equipment they have is superior over anyone else and suggestive sell these items. They are locked in with it, and to get the shot you need, you must use ( enter light here). And all the shots are spectacular, but are similar to one another.
We all must adapt. Our creativity is based on what we have and what we do with it. It isn’t about what we want or don’t have. This is a craft with a multitude of tools to use and subjects we have yet to capture.
I am subscribed and will watch more of the videos you posted and check your Instagram channel.
Great advise.......and it applies to other creatives as well! I could have said the same things about starting my decorative painting, and mural business, years ago! Thanks for being so real about it all. Cheers!
With new technologies the point number 6 it's never achieved. Upgrading lenses, strobes, flashes, and accessories it's too much expensive. Great video, the biggest mistake it's "Procrastination".
Really enjoyed watching your video, very informative, you are a natural! thank you!!!
It was certainly more refreshing, honest and useful than the usual "Take extra batteries". Even though I’ve no intention of setting up in business, as an ex business owner I can see real value in this video.
I love your videos,thank you for sharing your experience! I've been into photography since I was a little girl and ALWAYS carried a camera around with me everywhere.Since I could remember i wanted to to be a photographer! I went to school PAID way to much to a school that was gonna teach me photography got discouraged about the bill so I stopped going and started a "real job". It has been at least 10 years now and I just lost my job in December started taking photos again for family and thought I HAVE THE TIME NOW, LET'S DO IT! SO here I am trying to start my business!
Very interesting Tommy and very brave, few people dare to tell the mistakes encountered. This is how you can measure the path you took to get there !
Excellent advice
Love that video..thank you so much 🙏
Very cool channel mate! Thanks!
Fantastic job Tommy and as always great advice. You’re awesome.
I am glad that only 5000 ppl have watched this video. :D Coz I can take what others may be missing! your being humble and learn through patience and perseverance is certainly the essence of being a good future photographer. I started this year, I hope within 3 years, I will get where you are now! thanks for your honest sharing!
Thank you for posting this and well done. Can i ask where or how did you train to be a photographer? Did you do a particular course or did you study elsewhere.
Tommy can you create a video for guiding on how we need to prepare a contract for events. Like, what are the essential things to remember when preparing one. please?
This was really helpful - especially that I'm about to set sail in this field nowadays :) Thanks for sharing these thoughts.
+2 for backblaze, used them for many years, they changed the game back in 2009 when they developed their own redbox hardware
Brilliant Tommy
Thinking about taking the jump to pro next year, this was a very helpful video........love your content 👍😊
Point 8 is so valid Tommy. "WHY something was shot".
Rich Maciver Photo thank you Rich :)
Mistake 11 not learning basics of audio recording :( upsets me how all photographers have no idea how to correcty record/mix audio for videos. as a sound engineer going into photography its really noticable. I love your content though and your videos are so informitive but I think you have the skills to go the next level.
Hey Apollo, appreciate your comment and fear not, all future videos WILL NOT have the audio set to auto in future haha!
Tommy Reynolds love it, cant wait to see the next one!
Proud of you man, you've come a hell of a long way since the days of Jessops!! Keep it up.
P.s. Catch up is needed soon buddy!!
I love your videos!!
Thank you tommy. Its so helpful.
Thank you Tommy for the excellent advice and honest appraisal of the mistakes you made. I certainly recognise most of the stories you told in similar situations I have experienced. I wonder if you extended your list beyond 10 would it include Insurance?
I love ur videos man💗
Thank you!
Thanks man! Great tips:)
Markus Karhumäki thank you Markus :)
Loving the new content, glad to see you posting videos more frequently!
Ryan Tatar thank you Ryan :) feels nice to be posting regularly 📸🤓
Hello, I have always wanted to know what color you are using the background cloth, and I like it very much.
9:34 THIS is anxiety inducing! hahaha
Personally hits home... I shoot primarily wildlife and nature as a hobby, but this coming year I'm going to start offering services to generate a little extra revenue. Portraiture, weddings, family photos; these are what generate money, not birds and surfing and flowers... The terrifying reality of this though, I don't even OWN a flash or any sort of lighting - I've always been under the impression that natural light is king, and it is for my photography up to this point. But I'm going to have to learn, and buy some gear, to kit the style of shooting that will generate funds for me.
Great vids mate!
I'll be watching them over the next few days to get some tips and advice moving forward.
Cheers!
Excellent video. Thanks
Hi Tom , did you also go to uni or school before you actually decide to do full time photographer ? 🙂
all great advice. Get quick books :) . I've done it all.. Professional Photographer in New York (freelance), wholesales for a major camera company, retail sales (ewwwwww), Photography workshop owner. Who did you work for in retail. So many have gone out of business.
Thank you so much
I love the channel, you really deserve much more audience. Your picture is spectacular and I see that you are a great instructor. Please upload videos more continuously.
Very helpful. Thanks Tommy! :)
I love this! So helpful!
This stuff is gold man. Keep up the good work and I will see you in the next video.
Thank you!!!!
Great advice for newbies Tommy, great video mate!
Barry Mountford thank you Barry :)
Random question I know but where is your shirt from man? I love it!
Good to know for the future once a pandemic 😷 settles down
Grea tips, thanks for sharing
Gear is important based on where you are in your career.
have just stared the same journey, Tommy!! wish me luck!!! any advice for someone who has a full-time job and wanting so much to be a photographer?/? Thanks
I learned a lot. Thanks so much! Subscribed ^_^
Well done , good advice
I think we all cry as an entrepreneur at some point lol
Thank you my friend 😊
Good job, keep up the good work!
Great video tommy. Would love to work with you in the future. 😀
+1 for Backblaze!
Tipped to 1k 3yrs later woo woo :) - great vid very useful.
Comparing myself...that's totally me. But I am diligently working on that. We have to be our own person.
Happy New year Tommy..🎆
Stephen Bryant happy new year Stephen :)
Just wrapped up my first year as a prof photog and can I say I made every mistake you outlined here LOL #the50yroldman
im not the only one then hehe :D
Exectly, first the rihght Leitsystem and the rest come it alone👍
Tommy, I disagree. Non-mathematicians do learn something important in algebra: they learn how to solve difficult problems that seem at first glance to be insoluble, and that is a VERY important skill in all areas of life.
Just a light-hearted joke matey, don't worry
i agree, "expensive hobby"
work on your audio man, there are a lot of peaks and distortion and its horrible for headphone users.
villegas24 thanks for the info dude. My fault for leaving the mic on auto level on this one, sorry
My number one mistake is following you.
Great video, very honest of you about past mistakes. I cringe at mine but you never do it again.
James A Photography co uk thanks James :) I’ve learnt that being open and honest about mistakes in particular only makes you a better communicator
It's not exaxtly true. Better gear can improve the quality of your work.
THUMB UP :-) :-) :-)
That was a horribly exploitative contract that band put over you. What a con job. If shouldn't even be legal to be able to sign away one's rights like that. They'll have their karma I'm sure.
Thank you!
