This was SO helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
SO HELPFUL!! Thank you Rachel!
You're so welcome! I loved putting this together so I am glad it was helpful :)
As always, clear, concise and the absolute essential foundation to lighting. Thank you, Rachel.
Thanks for the feedback! Even though this was the basics of natural light it was so fun to put together with the BTS and how the camera sees the light. Thanks for watching.
fantástico
eu uso apenas a luz de estudio. muito raramente uso natural, exatamente por achar q não da pra manipular. E, como você sabe, aqui o que não falta é luz. mas nossa formação sempre foi baseada em livros europeus, então o uso é praticamente obrigatorio. Ideias pra voce divulgar mais este tipo de iluminação por aqui. Tenho uma amiga que morou no japão e era especialista em fotos com iluminação natural. Eu nunca entendia claramente o q queria dizer isso. obrigado pela lição. um abraço do brasil
Glad you enjoyed it! Hopefully you'll be able to use some of these ideas and try natural light a bit more. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for explaining it. It was a very useful video.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
What tripod head are you using?
Thank you for your amazing teaching! But i have a question; how do we decide which lighting is the best?
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching. With time, when you shoot different food subjects in different lighting, you'll begin to understand which one is the most flattering to your food/subject. There will be an element of what you like as a photographer and what light highlights the textures in the food. If you photographed the same food subject for a week in different light at different times of the day, you'd begin to see what looks best. Trial and error is a good way to learn. Hope that helps.
