I’m a photography student and I’m going to do an interior shot of a restaurant this afternoon and this just gave me a confidence booster 🥺 thanks for the great video! Loved it
So few interior tutorials actually have great photos, so this was awesome to watch! I would love to know more about how approach grading those HDR files
Tyler Stalman thanks! I’ll make a video on how I edit one from start to finish!
This is would be excellent, thank you!
YES PLEASE!
YES!
Would be very much appreciated
This was so helpful. Straight to the point and CLEAR af! I literally watch this video 10 times today. I have a real estate shoot tomorrow morning and I’m a bit nervous 😩 so this video definitely helped me. Thanks
First time I have watched your videos, but you do a great job of getting to the point and covering the topics quickly. Great work.
Becki, I've shot interiors for several years but found your video very informative. I really like your fast pace delivery - no wasted time here! I've recently been using LR HDR but I was surprised by your comment about editing them after the merge. So I went to Google and learned something very interesting - in the Basic panel if you drag the exposure slider on one of the original raws the range will be -5 to +5 stops. If you drag the exposure slider on the merged file (which is still a raw) the range will be -10 to +10 stops which is huge increase in dynamic range. This is great to know. Like another poster here I would like to hear any specifics you care to share about your edit process on the merged file.
Jerry Norman thanks so much! Maybe I’ll put together a video on how I edit a tough one from start to finish. Usually only do a little exposure/hightlight/shadow adjustment, then white balance and making sure the colors look the way they do in person. I usually let the windows blow out a bit because I like that look.
I'm an interior design photographer here in Toronto, I've been shooting or over 15 years. I stumbled upon your video and I must say it's very informative for someone that is just learning and wants a good starting point. Well done!
This is the best interior photography video I’ve seen and I’ve watched so many. No need to watch anymore:. Thank you!
Watched this for a second time after gaining some experience in real estate photography, super helpful to reinforce those guidelines for shooting interiors!
I did some interior photography before for a hotel. This really takes me back to what I have done and this also helps me to incorporate new ideas for future clients! Thank you for this inspiring video! 😁
Nurhairula Nordin glad to hear it! Thanks! 😊
the fact that this video is only 6 minutes long and provides so much info in detail compared to a 20-minute video that would explain the same thing is insane.
Awesome video. I just got my unmanned aircraft operators license and am going to start doing real estate. I have lots of Photography experience, just not Interiors for real estate. Thanks for the great video.
I just get a job and didn't know how to do it fast and perfect! after watching this video and doing what you said, the result is great! thanks a lot!
Great little vid. I’ve shot a couple of interiors and came here for some reassurance I’m in the right ball park. One thing I didn’t know about was the hdr composit in lightroom. I didn’t know you could composit then edit. That’s awesome. I have zero photoshop skill so this is really gonna help. Your photos are incredible. Thanks for your help!
This video is SO INFORMATIVE! I'm about to photograph some kitchens soon and def gonna use these tips :)
Wow, as somebody who is just getting started into real estate photography, thank you so much for this video. It was extremely informative.
I like to keep my tripod at just above waist height, of course that also depends on how tall you are. I'm 170. For kitchen shots its generally a good idea to boost the tripod height a bit more as kitchen counters are set higher than couches, tables, etc.
I have a potential interior design business client (my first one) who asked me if I would take some photos for her. This video has been immensely helpful. Thank you!
the explanation is just like rain - no stop. thank you Becki
This was the best interior-photography tutorial I found! Super intuitive and well done. Thank you for your tips and tricks, much appreciated! 🤓
Shooting interiors for a local business tomorrow and these tips were super helpful. Thank you.
I appreciate this overview of one way you shoot interiors. Not over complicated with 13 slave flashes.
Great video 👍🏼 I’ve been a Real Estate photographer for a few years. Have a flash with you at all times. Why? Because some homes you will shoot may not have electricity and bathrooms and closets will be difficult. I combine flash and ambient shots as layers in photoshop for the most part. Take your time at the beginning, try different angles and photo techniques till you find what works best. Get your post processing workflow down to a reasonable amount of time otherwise you are losing money. Attend open houses and speak directly to realtors to market your services. Please make sure there is no one there since you don’t want to interfere with their work. Let them know why you are there, don’t mislead by asking to look at the house. Bring your portfolio on an iPad or tablet to show them. Bring business cards! Do charge extra for twilight shoots, any drone work, sky replacement etc. Don’t forget pool and landscape businesses need photos also 👍🏼
I’ve been shooting architecture professionally for just over ten years this is One of the very few interior videos I’ve seen doing a genuinely good job. I like the way you think and explain the shots. I also use almost entirely natural light for the reasons you explain. The only difference is I use one exposure and capture one which exposes more dynamic range than lightroom.
Mark Hardy thanks so much!!
Mark Hardy hi mark bit late to the conversation. I have an interior shoot coming up and also use capture one. Do you use lights combined with natural light or just one daylight image and then bring into capture one? Do you find that works ok?
Wow! That was a lot of (good) information crammed into a short video! Thanks!
You nailed it. As a beginner, I am spending my time watching courses, and you, with a 6-7 min video answered to most of my questions. Very well prepared, ticking all the boxes straight to the point. I feel more confident now. :D
This was very refreshing. I am so used to seeing crappy RE/Interior photography youtube videos from old hags who are boring and take very tasteless photos. Your photos look great for ambient only shots
That was one of the best CZcams vidoes ever! What a succint rad job!!! Thank you for the knowledge.
As an Interior Design company, It is SO important to have PROPER photos of your work but who can afford to pay a professional photographer. Great video and tips!!! Thank you!!
Who can afford to pay a professional interior designer?
I have watches so many videos and was so confused I wasn’t sure if i have the right equipment or if i need lighting or not but it made my day when i saw u have the same camera body, lenses and tripod thank you !!!
This was great, thank you! Subscribed. Please do videos on:
1) manually adjusting distortion/keystoning/diverging lines when Lightroom doesn't correct it perfectly.
2) multiple exposures for hdr photography, how you determine amount of under and overexposure, etc.
3) ideas for managing cramped spaces, maybe with panorama stitching?
4) 360 degree shots
This video is dense with raw information, thank you.
this was so helpful, that hdr trick is great
Best video I've found so far on CZcams talking about this.
Very nice! I've done some interior photography and I was doing a lot of these, but these are great tips!
This is fantastic! So much info in a short period of time - I need to start taking more detail shots of my houses... Thanks much! 🙂
Extremely helpful! I'm doing my first interior shoot in a few days and this just saved my life, thank you!
Love it! Can u do an updated thumbnail design tutorial? Been a few years since u did one...
Thank you, Becki. This is by far the most useful and easiest to understand video on Real Estate / Interior Design Photography I've found on CZcams! Keep up the awesome work! I'm subscribed!
Waaay too much good information in one video for it to be free :0 thank you so much Becki!
DANG GIRL! This is like a degree in photography compressed in to a few minutes! Awesome. Thank you.
You gave so much info in just 6:47 minutes. I had to keep going 10 seconds back just to avoid missing all that you said. Thanks.
Great outline of key points for interior shooting. Well done.
These are by far the most usefull tips I have found on youtube on this topic at least!
I love the straight on strategy. It always comes out good
First video i’ve watched, instant subscribe. Nice work :)
OK. Your video presentation style and pace is AMAZING and helpful. Bravo! As a fellow Newfoundlander I was especially pleased to know someone so articulate, professional and knowledgable was from my home town. Nice work. Now I'm off to photograph interior photos of the Manitoba Legislature. Thanks for the tips.
Those were actually some very good tips. Many tutorials on youtube tend to be a bit superficial, but you got quite a lot of helpful information in here. Thanks!
SO informative. This is the perfect video for someone to watch if they want to get into this type of photography. BECKI COMIN THROUGH WITH THE VALUE AGAIN!!!!
Lizzie Peirce ❤️❤️🙌🏼🙌🏼 thanks my girl!!!
Sometimes I watch your videos just for the intros, So good! But also for the crazy skill tips you two share!
Wow. That was really good. Thanks for talking fast. You fit so much into such a short time!
Thanks 🙏 I’ve just started in real estate and that was really helpful
Oh wow I learned a lot under 7 minutes. Thank you so much for this!
Don’t know why people still be coming late for class!! You ain’t even paying fees!😂
Boom gang!!
Very good video. Although I don't shoot interior or real estate, it never hurts to have these techniques in your memory bank. They can be just as useful when photographing people in homes.
Great video! Loved the fast paced whey you talk!
These are really helpful, will probably help me reduce the need for me to outsource. But anyway, outsourcing helps me avoid boring repetitive editing. edithere if someone needs it, not that I want to advertise but their service is really great.
Great video Becki. Love it! Love learning how other interior photographers shoot and their process.
Just brilliant!!! Thank you!🤗💖
Nice work, You are obviously an actual professional, with an understanding of what Properly finished work looke like....not to knock the creator space, but there is alot of subjective feelsy advice out there and I think you really break down some solid fundimentals in a straight forward way.
I like that you also have this approach of capturing both wide angle room shots and smaller details with a style. We often see this very fronted architectural perspective style which is getting very repetitive. Having wide angle, a bit closer furniture shots and small details fragments/decor is what I love doing the most. Would like to hear ideas on using people in the shots, usually they are in motion, but it get's boring fast as well. :)
Perfect! Just the information I was looking for and more. I have bought myself a Nikon DSLR camera and have been really struggling with knowing what lens to buy and what to do next. I am an interior designer and love to take photo but constantly feel disappointed in my shots. I'm learning so this is a great short vid packed with info. I will check out your other vids now and hopefully learn lots more.
I started doing 5 exposures for the photo merge and the results were much better in my opinion.
Thank you for the information! I just got my 16-35mm 2.8 ii in the mail today and I can't wait to try to take some interior photos!
That was just amazing. I am doing a photo shot tomorrow of a lodge for a friend. So she can update her photos. Hopefully get some great shot for her and edit them later for her. I will watch some more of your videos. To hopefully give me some more ideas. Have a good one, your new subscriber.
Great tips! You don't need to bracket any longer with today's technology. I shoot interiors, highlights and shadows, and work it out in Lightroom with a single photo. The Sony sensors are pretty darned good for this.
Great video Becki! Please make a video on how you can get rooms with white walls as close as possible to that white in the editing.
Great photos with unique interesting perspectives on what works best for you. Appreciate your sharing this.
Hi Becki. I've watched a couple of your videos and I'm very glad I found your channel. I'm not a photographer (yet), but I plan to be one. Let's say I'm in the training period and since I plan to work in the interior photography niche I hope to get loads of value out of your videos. Thx for all the work you do here on YT. 👍🏼😉
Short but still to the point. Nice video.
Great video, would you please share with us what metering mode you recommend and examples of camera seatings for your exposures? Thanks
LOVE this video. very simple, clean and to the point
Amazing photography!!! And great tips!
this is a great video, and even if you speak fast I understand you well, lots of beautiful pictures, I love it
Great video! Thanks for the simple approach!
Very informative. I really love your energy. How you get right into the video. Never any filler. Also, love the music! Easy to listen and follow along with what you had to say:) subbed!
Finally a fellow photographer in Canada that does real estate. Do you have anymore how for real estate?
Thank you! Informative, beautiful, and straight to the point
This is a great video. You explanations are so specific that even me as a beginner I can understand it. Thank you and I will definitely be following all of your work.
Clicked on this video today - you are LITERALLY the same person as me. All natural lighting - EXACT same setup xD I nearly died! INCREDIBLE!
Thanks for the video and info. I’m glad to know all I really need is a decent wide angle lens and good tripod. The rest relies on learning how to edit in photoshop and Lightroom.
Whoa, love the quality of your tutorials. Also, amazing examples! Love it
Hi, thank you for this video, it was the first one I encountered with actual heplfull tips and good looking results. I'm really curious for the post produce video. Is that up already? Couldn't find it on you page. Thanks again!
I use my 600w strobe, looks so good. Then I use an ambient to blend in the furniture
Great info, great energy thanks for sharing just became a fan
Super helpful; thank you! And happy 10k subscribers!! ✨✨✨
The DIY Mommy thank you!!!
super helpful in 2020 with 246k subs hihihih
Great job explaining all the details in a quick and simple manner!
I find guided geometry is way better than auto! Not a lot of people use guided geometry but it's one of the most powerful things about lightroom!
Love your tips, Becki! Especially love you doing it all with natural light. :)
This is dope ! 🔥 Thank you for this valuable info
Thanks for the awesome How To shoot... tomorro I am shooting with the client haha :)
Thanks! I like your Lightroom tip on Auto correct the verticals.
Curious if you find yourself really using the ability to open up to f/2.8 all that often with the 16-35 v III? I suspect you open up to 2.8 more for your video walk throughs when needed in darker rooms? Curious what your thoughts are on going with the 16-35 f/4 at a much better price point? I guess I'm just struggling to justify that extra $1000 for that 2.8 stop, and if it really saves the day all that often with your shoots. Looking to buy one or the other.. Thanks for the time you spend on your videos. Great material.
Great video. I shot a friend's house recently. Free, and he knew it was my first time. I was terrible. He wisely got a pro. But I learned a lot doing it. Reassuring to see that a lot of the things I tracked for "in the future" line up almost exactly with what you've said here. Sure, theory is one thing, execution is another, but I think I'd deliver a much better product next time.
Hi Becki, can you be more specific about the 3 exposures values? Love your tips, thanks!
0 -1 +1 and 1 flash shot, 4 total shots. www.genemoretti.com
@@GeneMoretti , what gear do you recommend for real estate photography? Canon 6D m ii & Canon 16-35 f/4L IS any good? What about lighting?
Thanks!!
I didn't realize Lightroom could do HDR! I'm going to have to play around with that!
Thank you for this! I will be shooting my first condo next week! 🤞🏼 wish me luck! 😊
Love the yellow chairs.
This video came up on my recommended and I’m so glad I clicked on it! I’m a real estate photographer based in Houston tx and I have the exact setup and use almost the same workflow! What exposure value do you find best for 3 images using AEB? -2, 0, +2? Great video! 😊👍🏻
+- 2stops is ideal if you are only shooting 3 images. Gives you more range to work with, in either direction as you can pull back a +-1 from though images in a lot of cases.
Great video, quick talking / sample shots really kept my attention 👍👍👍
Great tips, accompanied by superb images. Thanks for sharing.
