Family portraits

I am confused about the camera settings . I assume the camera is set to manual with you setting f stop, iso, and shutterspeed with the light on TTL. However you said you didn't use a light meter and let the camera and light do all the thinking. Please clarify.

Good start for basic session. Where does Dad fit in? Siblings?

I would have like to hear more about the light settings - I understand Sandy was using TTL but I thought she could have explained this process and also manual mode on the B1s

The studio session was worth the price of admission for the entire set. Excellent details for working with children, set design, and digital finishing. The only negative feedback is, if you're going to tell me you're using a gray card to set your white balance in the camera, tell me how you're doing that. Lastly, mentioning things that have made your life easier without telling what they are (brand) and where to get them, it really doesn't help, e.g. light stands.

Posing and working with the toddler was great, would have liked to hear more about that. In fact, working with multiple subjects is why we bought this video set.

The park shoot was great, I would liked to have heard about how you set white balance in your camera, when shooting in shadow and using strobe. The alley shoot probably would have benefited from an ND filter to prevent sky blowout. There are lots of rules in photography... why say there isn't?

for me, her voice sounds exhausting and not smooth. Makes me weird and its hard to listen..;(

its lost my money

Very very useful! Thank you very much Sandy!! I am so impressed with your way of being as educational as you are in action...

thanks for all
