Your videos are just 🔥🔥🙌🙌 I have no words.. you're really helping us out big time man. Amazing tips!
Natural locations 🔥 thank you for the vote of confidence especially for some of us that can't afford studios or artificial light😅😅 I've honestly learnt a lot

[titouan]

Yes man! Really dope one. Cant wait to see this one going viral

[miriambaranov]

Omg thank you so much!!! So sooo helpful. I am a portrait painter and as you know most people nowadays don't have the time to sit hours for a painting so I really need to up my game on the shooting side. This makes me want to subscribe to your Patreon! Also because I do my work from natural light so all these tips are gold.

On a side note the second painting was the artwork of Vermeer and he just like Rembrandt is definitely an amazing example of using windows as a light source.

[levindeheer]

Great tutorial! I'm a hobbyist with a passion for shooting people social dancing (salsa, bachata) indoors (my specialty/peculiarity: no flash, no posing, getting closeup with a 105 mm or 135 mm lens), so I love to watch videos like this discussing all aspects of low light, no-flash photography. Subscribed!

Again an incredibly helpful video !:O

Id like to ask one question:

If I have an Apsc camera should i rather get the sigma 30mm f1.4 or sigma 56mm f1.4 ?

[tokyodave]

Thanks for this. Really useful and well presented! Cheers!

[kswindlehurst]

Just the video I needed got my first shoot next weekend I have a 50mm at 1.8 but it’s outdoors but look forward to what I will learn

[DJFIDEL]

Thanks for the video. I use the 90mm fuji for portraits with good bokeh but I find myself having to move further behind to take portraits. I came here to learn how to use my camera without the flash and I got some tips. will try them soon.
I just suck at editing. mostly because the image I get are already good from camera so I don't even know how to retouch and even achieve your looks lol
