My biggest struggle with photography has been the sun. I live in SW Florida and it is usually very bright and sunny here. I really appreciate the tips from you on this subject and look forward to future videos.
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate you ladies! Thanks for the tips. I appreciate that you put the "ok" examples plus your "great" examples.
Thank you
Beautiful I just subscribed
Could it be different if the type of photography were documentary or like an environmental portrait? Harsh light on the face might work
The thing that is frustrating me most is the WHITE sky. It is so frustrating when there's no variation with clouds, etc. Thanks for always sharing your tips! Very informative!
Nice video. You don’t mention if you use any fill flash on the back lit photos. Guessing you just over expose by +1 – + 2…and turn down the highlights in post? Thanks. You ladies do great work.
Spotty light which you mentioned at the end of the video has been my biggest issue. Thanks for the tips! 📷
For me, it’s harder to edit when using shade, or with the subjects back to the sun. The subject always looks dingy/dark. Frustrating. Good tips, thank you!
You are both very generous with your teaching! Thank you!
