Easy. In PS, in the Layers Palette, drag the background layer to make a copy of that layer (square with the + sign in) it. Make that copy layer black and white. Easy way is to go to ...

"Family" portraits? Of entire families? Forget the beauty dishes. Their sizes and shapes make them more suited for one person and usually for a head and shoulders type of shot. For families or ...

Of the ones I know are actual photographers I can recommend a few. Some hometown or nearby ones I know are actual working photographers: Tim Kelly. Gary Hughs Booray Perry (yes, his real name) Ton ...

No. As a Fuji shooter ALWAYS keep your in camera noise reduction to the lowest setting! If there is one thing Fuji could fix is the noise reduction setting. It makes no sense. At has 0 but ...

All I do is corporate event work. And do it full time. I use the 16-55 2.8 and the 50-140 2.8. Like weddings, things happen pretty fast so I don't use primes. I also use a Godox V1 flash. I's ...

Every photographer is different. The first studio I worked in we shot for Red Lobster and Olive Garden and many other other food companies/restraunts. Their HQ is here in Orlando. John, the ...

I agree with others. I wouldn't use a mirror. I'd use a large piece of white foam core or poster board to have it reflect white back into the name on the right. Then in PS I would mask out every ...

Do they still fit when using an S2 bracket? Height isn't a problem but how about width?

Auto WB in ACR/LR a rarely accurate. I'd never risk a clients product's true color on a guess. A calibrated wb target like a Color Checker Passport is so easy to put in the first shot and just ...

Depends on how you're wanting to use it. I do a lot of corporate event work and I find them a bit too large and floppy. My go to is a Demb Flip it! on flash reflector but they went out of ...

Forget the polarizers. They will also effect the shine on the skin and that can make skin look odd. The great thing about digital is you see the shot immediate afterwards. Just because they wear ...

Curious as to why this is being shot inside. Years ago I worked with a studio that shot high school seniors. As part of the contract with the school, we also provided sports images. And a lot ...

We just have to work with what works for us. If that doesn't work for you, that's fine. I have a smaller lighter boom. Scared the heck out of me every time I used it. I'm sometimes around ...

I use a certain boom for my fill light. I do portrait work and sometimes place my fill right above and behind the camera. Some call it form fill or on axis fill or whatever. lol Anyway, I use a ...

Been using a string since 1994! When you got up to 8 portrait sittings each day and move your main based on the pose, it's pretty much a necessity. IF your goal is consistency.

How DID you light these people? I too do a lot of shoots where we keep the same lighting for everyone. They're just basically stepping into the same area with little time to adjust anything. I ...

Depends on what you shoot, what YOUR market is and where you are with your rates right now. Have all your costs gone up? If so, how much? Who are YOUR clients? It's not just a flat out "what THE ...

I did use Costco in the early 2000s. They did alright as long as you were in control and told them not to adjust the images. However, I believe your work IS your calling card and the prints should ...

Yes! It's a "lighting" issue and not an "exposure" issue. If you were shooting a fashion shot with a dark skinned person, you can't open up and overexpose the the article of clothing they are ...
