Understanding lighting and being able to add supplemental lighting when shooting on location portraits is a vital part of being a professional photographer. No genre depends on mastering this skill more than wedding photography. Wedding Photographers are often faced with unfamiliar locations, less than ideal natural light, and tight timelines that don't always make way for epic photography. Therefore the best wedding photographers learn to use additional lighting techniques quickly and efficiently to produce the best images possible on such a tight shooting schedule.
In this two part series, Patrick Hall walks you through 6 of his favorite lighting setups that you can use on your own location based portraits. These lighting setups include a mix of different lighting modifiers ranging from hard light reflectors, large softboxes, small fresnel lenses, and even gels used to balance warm city lights. This first video focuses on creating vignettes with grids and hard reflectors, using soft stripbox lighting for for basic up close portraits, and using a focused fresnel light to create hard lit beauty shots. - Jak na to + styl

Definitely need more Patrick videos. Actually gets out and does things to show us. These are the kinds of videos that'll bring you guys up to a million, which I hope happens soon. The other guy just sits at his desk and advertises products. It's like if a Reddit post was a video.
I wish that were true. Lee just released perhaps the most viral video we’ve ever made with his printer scam video. It’s gained way more followers and subs and have almost 1m views while content like this which I prefer has less than 10k views. At this point I have no idea why our followers love what they love 😂 -P
I immediately went outside to try these out! Those viral videos reached me before I got into YT photo. Exceptions are some old ones like the iPhone shoot, I found that on the channel sorted by popularity @@FStoppers
Excellent tutorial Patrick!
so good, thank you for this!
Great stuff. Thank you!
Great Video!
Great!
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for this video. Learnt a couple of things.
I always try to watch the sample videos. Thanks for sharing.
The most important skill required to get the third image: being polite and friendly with the security people.
Yeah helps to ask. It’s certainly helped me gain access at some swim meets where others aren’t allowed to be.
@@boostedmaniac The 'pro' type cameras also help, as an "all-access" pass. Size matters...
@@UnconventionalReasoning agree. At those events walking around with a 200-500mm I don’t get questioned much in restricted areas. On the flip side, I got flagged once for photographing my daughter when she was 1 using a reflector my wife was holding at an outdoor mall. They asked me for a permit which I didn’t have. No iPhone users around me got flagged for essentially the same thing.
@@boostedmaniac Exactly. Size matters. Sometimes bigger is better, sometimes smaller is subtle. Knowing which size works when is key.
Very informative! Much than a profoto videos😂!)
This is more like a product commercial. Cool
Looks very professionnal
Good seeing the new dad in a video. Congrats man.
Thanks! It’s been rough the first 6 months but it’s getting better everyday. Hudson will soon start walking any week now 😳-P
That bride/model is DAMN beautiful
Hope you enjoyed shooting in PR! 💪🏻❤️🇵🇷
Shooting in PR is great excepts it's always hot. On this particular day we had really bad Sahara dust so I was never able to do a super hard light shot with the sun because it was all kind of hazy. But yeah Old San Juan is amazing! -P
Hello, I am watching you from Turkey. Can you add Turkish subtitle option, thank you
Patrick... is that a "hair gel" on your ear on that second location? :D
Ha sweat man. It’s not a wedding if you aren’t sweating and it’s not Puerto Rico if it’s not 90 degrees outside. -P
What's the difference between the fresnel and magnum in terms of look
It’s really subtle outside but inside the shape of the shadow is a bit different. Both increase the power of the flash by something like 1.7 stops (don’t quote me) but since the fresnel is so much smaller I’d recommend it first in your on location bag. -P
@@FStoppers on thanks
Does anyone noticed that stripbox reduces a little bit of power compared to regular softbox of similar size?
That’s an interesting observation. I haven’t noticed it myself but maybe it’s the same power just distributed in a more narrow and wider area than a square Softbox? -P
😊
is this in portugal ?
Puerto Rico United States -P
I’m on the island. Would love to collab!
Hey hey, where in PR are you located? -P
Nice!
And first
Cheers from Bali!
Flash Wedding Photos is the Trend 2023 and the next years. Also the Paparazzi Look for Weddings. No more Boho.
Finally lol
Now they are going to fire the security guard 😂 cut the part where you show his face if posible.
He was just following orders from his superior female officer who I didn’t show. 😅 -P
I feel that her face in the 5 min section seems to wash her face too much. But the shoulders and the rest looks sooo good.
You're getting hard light at 4ft away because it is a tiny softbox... not because its 4 ft away. Important note you missed.
It’s still soft just not as soft. Soft light is a combination of distance and apparent size of light source. A 3’x1’ strip box is still relatively large even at 4’. -P
You and Lee still on good terms?? Seems like you’re never together shooting. Anyways great video!
Lee was the one behind the camera on this 🤣 Yeah we are good! -P
It says wedding photos. I just started watching the video and see only one person being photographed. Hope we can see the groom and not just the bride.
I am a big fan of you guys, but don't like when the title doesn't match with the content.
It's 6 lighting tips for wedding photographers. Wedding photographers often have to shoot posed photos of the bride and groom and bridal shots of just the bride at every wedding. This is just a small tutorial on different lighting styles you can use when shooting bridal portraits but you can easily add the groom to these as well. -P
Please, more Patrick Hall videos and less Lee videos. Patrick always nails it and can be trusted. Lee on the other hand….
Really? Ask that to actual wildlife photographers, not the ones going to parts to capture birds in flight (nice, no shade, but comparable to wedding photography). Spend one week in the artic, taking pictures of wildlife risking your life. Ask war photographers. Wedding photography is great, and it's difficult because of the competitive space. Also, since the barrier of entry is so low we have wedding photographers that don't even understand how aperture work, but it's by far not the most chalenging.
I didn’t mean it’s more difficult in terms of life risking or extreme temps, just in that you need to understand most every facet of photography to do it well. Wildlife photographers don’t need to use flash just as sports photographers rarely shoot at f8. The hardest single field of photography has to be underwater photography. It’s like macro meets wildlife meets limited mobility meets luck meets flash all wrapped up in one. Sports and war photographers obviously want to get the shot but all the ones I know at the highest level work in tandem and don’t have a specific shot list that must get covered or the client feels cheated. -P
