    This video was so helpful! I've been thinking about getting the same equipment for studio portraits but always been scared to actually give it a try. Now I know they'll look great!

  10. Victoria Emenike says

    Nice video, its cool that you are petite like me

  11. Gillian Kamau says

    I don’t mind your echoing audio, I love it cause it shows the reality of things which is awesome and refreshing to see something authentic but if people are coming for you hard, if it helps maybe try doing a voice over as you shoot, I watch another photographer named Evan Ranft and when he can’t explain what he’s doing at the moment or he says the audio was bad, he’ll do a voice over. Or just do you boo cause I love it anyways 💓

    Hey Jessica! Long time subscriber here! There's a free app you can use to help you figure out which your settings should be when you're using film. It’s called "Lux".

  18. Sydney Anne says
