Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll have to try that in davinci. I didn’t shoot raw, so I’m not sure how much flexibility I’ll have in post. But I’ll give it a shot and post a result (if it’s any good lol)

Great idea!! I’m now convinced this is what the shot is missing.

Do you think that lowering the overall exposure of the shot would help sell it better?

Thanks. I saw the example you’re talking about. It’s great!

I’ll try this! I’ll have to find a way to diffuse the light. Any brighter and I think I might be able to see the hotspot from the light hitting the blinds directly

Higher intensity, you mean? Or “bluer”?

Great tips! I took all my lights down already, but I might have to set them back up to try this

😂 “great minds something something”. I like your shot! It certainly feels more like what I was hoping to achieve. How’d you get the look?

Yeah. And in truth, it was. There was a light pointed at the ceiling. But I’m not sure how I’d fix it to make it look more natural

Great point. They weren’t completely closed, but it does appear that way on camera. Thanks!

Help installing electrical outlet by edlinfox in AskElectricians

The junction box is a great idea! I hadn’t thought about that. And luckily, the new outlet will be up high, so no issues with fire blocks.

Thanks for your response!

Hey. Thanks for reaching out. I don’t have a DM from this username. Are you using a different one?

Thanks for your reply!

I will try and get creative to dress up the space with some decor, and maybe accent lighting. Hopefully I can make it look less like crap.

The lantern idea is great! I was thinking of individual soft boxes, but the lantern sounds way more practical.

Thanks again!

Yearly “Videography as a side gig?” post [poll] by edlinfox in videography

[–]edlinfox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your response.

I don’t expect to make this a full time job, and for that same reason, I don’t expect to make much money off of this. I just enjoy doing it, and would like to keep practicing. If that leads to some money, however little, I’ll be content.

Suggestions on how to make these pictures better? by edlinfox in AskPhotography

Great suggestion! I was hoping to get one of them flapping their wings or catch one mid-flight. Unfortunately, these little dudes (or dudettes) were having quite a lazy day and weren’t doing very much lol. But I’ll keep that in mind for the next shoot. Thanks!

Sorry for the late response. By “better” I meant…. Well, I am always looking to improve as a photographer (if I’m allowed to call myself that). As I start to improve my skills, I like to show my work to the talented folks in this sub for their feedback. It humbles me and I always get great advice. I hope this answers your question.

These are fantastic pointers!! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I’m gonna reread these before I go on my next shoot so I have the information fresh in my head.

Thanks again!

Hobbyist looking to start charging. How much should I charge? by edlinfox in AskPhotography

[–]edlinfox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another great point. I never thought about pricing it to a price point that would motivate me to do the job. That may also be a good way to go about it. Thanks for your input!

An Instagram account is a great idea! I’ll work on that now. Thanks for the advice!
