G’day Joe, I hope you’re well. Glad to see another video from you.😎✌️

[sarawalsh]

I literally LOVE how you teach. Your honesty is refreshing ! Thank you for this - it's one of the best tutorials I've ever seen :)

I’ve done landscape for years only done portrait when asked. Have done a couple big groups that were a lighting nightmare for me, gave me headaches and the thought of doing it again just made me want to crawl under my editing desk and hide. But now I’m getting more into portrait and may have to face this fear in the future. This was very helpful and answered any questions I thought of along way. THANKS.

This is one of the most helpful tutorials I’ve seen. So informative. Just what I need. Look forward to more lighting groups tutorials. Desperately need it.

[markludman]

I learnt so much from this session. Thank you.

[mlynch]

One of the most helpful lighting/flash videos I’ve seen; thanks so much!

[vasilyneganov]

Thanks a million, Joe! A super valuable video explanation of lots of things! Surprised this has so few "likes", but I am going to look at your other videos now. Please keep sharing your extensive experience!

[riaangreeff]

Joe!!! You blew my mind re the height of the lights! Had an issue where the reflections in a window the other day and I had to move the light to the side to get rid of the refection but I never tried increasing the Never even thought of it!!!!

Great episode Joe! Especially liked the tips regarding light adjustments (tilt and height) and camera height.

[patriciaterranova]

Your explanations are fantastic and the visual display you use is extremely helpful in understanding lighting!

[LeonidKalesnik]

Thank You. Very good video! I'm very glad.

[marcthibault]

Excellent tutorial Joe! Very informative! Thanks 🇨🇦

I enjoyed your closing comments! Most of us (not all!) are lazy and want the operator to upload a program so we can say, wow! I know feathering! (Or insert another skill) 😂

[jimmyhinAK]

James from Anchorage Alaska love your videos. Still trying to make a logical choice what is the best lighting for me.

[dominicwroblewski]

Thanks for the video and your knowledge Joe. I may just go out and get a couple of shoot through umbrellas. I shoot for fun in my home and use softboxes with grids to control the light but the shoot through umbrellas will give me something different. I agree with you, every one today wants to know the numbers. People seem to think that there is some magic formula for a good photo. They want it quantized. I would be interested in your take on reflective umbrellas for group shots.

Here again and late again - catching the rerun from Central NC.

Attention to DETAIL a family group portrait with KIDS in it, that is the challenge. As always thanks for all.
