Jay P.'s experience with elaborate set design and extensive lighting are key to the success of his illustrative work.
I love this! Very clear, systematic, and practical, with supportive diagrams, and comparison of the effects of different set-ups. I have watched a gazillion photography CZcams videos but I have not found any portrait tutorial that is better. It's like having your own engaging professor of photography. Brilliant! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Appreciate your positive feedback!
Your diagrams with each light type showing symbols for bkdrop, light source, model, and camera positions are so clarifying! Thanks for sharing these tips!
You are welcome! Glad it was helpful!
From one teacher to another, you are a great teacher! Thanks for a great video! Going to try this with my own children, if they will sit for it. All my best.
You are so welcome! Good luck keeping your kids sitting still for the photos!
This is so well explained...where have you been all my life. Thank you 😊💓
You are welcome. Glad you found it helpful!
Excellent presentation, JP, with great examples, and a clear explanation of what's going on. Bravo!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment!
Clear and concise information. Fun, to boot. Thank you.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your support!
Well explained. Thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment!
Jay, Fantastic video! Straight forward, illustrative. I'm an amateur, so using what I've got on hand to take photos (windows) is really useful. Thanks
Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for your comment!
JP, you’re best in these useful, insightful, beautiful content. Great admirer. Wish you stop doing those crappy and biased camera comparison. Not you. The other guy finds it tough being objective. And you know it. ☺️
I appreciate that! Thanks for your feedback!
Great refresher for me. I earned a photography diploma about 25 years ago but only worked in the biz for less than a year. And now I need to take a few photos for LinkedIn. Actually got me excited about photography again!
That is awesome! Get back out there and shoot!
Brilliantly explained and totally practicable. Awesome. Thanks man 👍👏🏽👏🏽
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment!

Will do. Glad you found it useful!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
Jay and crew, I really appreciate all the effort you put into videos like these and I find them very helpful. Thank you! Do you have a video on planning your light based on moods you want to achieve or, if you want to shoot a public event outside using available light, how do you plan where to go to take advantage of existing light? (How to plan my location or time of day when I can't control the environment i.e. street or travel photography)
When we shoot outside with a group we use strobes to control the light.
Great exercise Thanks
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
Very well explained ☺
Thanks a lot 😊. Glad you found it helpful!

Good job
Thanks. I appreciate your positive feedback!
Very useful video , I learned lot from it, looking forward more videos like this keep it up good work, R.manohar , india,
Glad you found it useful!
I enjoy your videos, Jay. I had a hard time paying attention though, because Rai is so fine. 😍
Thanks for watching. Have a great day!
great video and much nicer than artificial lights and much more economic 😝
It certainly is more economical!
Great video,back in the day(the 70's) I was thought that there was another lighting pattern close loop lighting was different than Rembrandt lighting do we not teach that anymore? And to get light in the shadow side of the eye when doing split light is really difficult.
My understanding is when you close the loop it becomes a Rembrandt. The best way too get that light back in for the split light is to use a reflector like I demonstrated. As always thanks for your comment Greg!
Best American Accent Ever!!!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
I didn't understand the comment about changing the "ratio" in the butterfly light setup. The ratio between subject light and background? How would you change that if you're using one light source? Thanks for the video--I learned a lot. Excellent presentation.
Light ratio is about the highlights and shadows on the face. You change that by using a fill card to bounce light into the shadows. You might be interested in this video about lighting ratios: czcams.com/video/QTah36HPTPs/video.html
Oo what a beautiful woman she is , JP love from India🇮🇳
Thanks for watching and keep on clickin!
Could you provide your camera settings for the photos as seen?
It has been quite a while since we shot this. That would be buried in our archives.
5:00 - I really don't see a huge amount of difference there. I mean, they essentially look the same except for her position. The colour saturation looks more so on the photo to the left. What I would ask though, is that if you were using a particularly large aperture for this, which eye would you focus on, the one closest to or further away from you?
Personally the one closest. But that is a creative decision.
does the window have to be north light for this to work?
No, it does not. If you are getting direct sunlight then put up a sheet to soften the light.
@@TheSlantedLens ok makes sense thank you. like an overcast window with a white sheet instead of clouds
Nice but to low light and using camera in hand.. we need a good camera full frame and good lens :)
Thanks for watching and keep on clickin!
I imagine that a sunny day with passing cloud would make this a difficult project.
You will have to keep adjusting your exposure.
You forgot the shade of the cones bro
The fill side of the cone from the Laws of light cone video?
Lovely man you are JP, but please loose the backwards baseball hat.
Can't look through the lens with the cap turned forward.
