This tutorial is a 2-and-a-half-hour crash course on how to shoot professional-grade creative portraits. We start out with some in-depth discussions on how to create more dimensional portraits via lighting and composition, how to organize shoot logistics such as finding locations and models, and lastly how to choose and use your gear. Then, we run through some demonstrations of what we’ve discussed via 3 sample shoots – daytime, sunset, and nighttime!
This tutorial is perfect for complete beginners to intermediate shooters. It is meant to drastically accelerate your learning process and give you concrete steps on studying and implementing professional shooting techniques. As we go along, I will answer the following questions.
We will cover:
- How do I create dimensional portraits that have that extra “something”?
- Which gear should I shoot on? (Does it even matter?)
- How do I properly prepare for a shoot to make the most out of it?
- How can I find and use beautiful natural light?
- Where do I find models for collabs, especially as a beginner?
- How do I pose, direct, and – in general – communicate with a model?
- Where should I focus my attention when I first start shooting?
- How do I deal with anxiety and overwhelm on shoots?
- How can I come up with creative ideas and concepts for shoots?
- How do I keep progressing once I feel like I’m plateauing?
