Man, there are so many opportunities right now,

to be honest, I would rather not do

this tutorial and just photograph them and not

have to teach because I'm addicted to photography

and I'm addicted to actually seeing what I

just saw right now, but we'll follow along,

why not.

Alright guys, in fact, Dylan, I'm going to

get a shot of you right now, mate.

We've got sort of highlight, we've got shadow,

we've got highlight, this is going to work

really well.

I'm going to get you right here, so

bring your butt right there, love this shadow

too.

So, hands in the pockets, just come off

a little bit so you're not sort of

sandwiched too far there.

Now, this is really cool guys, we said

side lighting, that split lighting is very masculine,

works really well for him, love that shadow

too.

So, there's two things that I'm thinking of,

I was actually going to include this highlight

and then him and the shadow, but I

feel like now that that's sort of begging

to be used only, so I'm going to

cut into this and then isolate what I'm

looking at.

And he looks really cool there, so I'm

going to keep it at f4, and the

light is a little bit sort of raw

and dirtier, so to speak, but again, suits

the guy.

Turn your face more left though, more, chin

up a little bit, that's it, hold it

there.

You just had that little, that piece of

hair causing a shadow on your face there,

that's awesome man, hold it there, yeah, that's

awesome.

Don't forget too guys, like what I'm doing

now, I can easily go to my picture

control, and if I sometimes see things in

black and white, then I like to photograph

it in black and white.

Awesome man, turn your face more left, good,

chin up a little bit more, awesome man,

hold it there, hold it, one more again

like that, yeah, that's really cool.

Yeah, how cool is that for a groom

shot, love that.

Okay, now we're going to do something really

fun, stay where you are, Lisa, can I

have you there for a sec?

I am going to see if I can

just get your shadow in here, so come

a little bit closer, just about there, a

bit more, and just face him properly.

Turn your face more to the right, pick

up the dress with both hands, it's sort

of, and not so much wider, sort of

just a little bit in front of you,

as if you're sort of holding it to

walk, does that make sense?

Sort of, so bend your elbows out towards

me, and that's it, good, good, hold it

there, yeah, this is fun.

If I can mate, Dylan, come a bit

more this way mate, this is more of

an editorial shot guys, obviously we're not trying

to save the world with the romantic nature

of this shot, this is just really cool.

I love the shadows on either side, the

composition is really cool, good, yeah, love that.

And now, Lisa, I'm going to get you

to rest your back on there, so that

you're in the sun, so we've sort of

got dark on dark and light on light

as opposed to what we did before.

Come a bit more that way, that's it,

good.

And now, I just want you to bring

your arm around here, no, just like that,

yeah, beautiful.

And this hand, just on the upper chest

there for me, and tilt your face this

way, and turn your face more left, more

left, more, more, more, beautiful.

In fact, put your hand down, it looks

probably a little bit too much, and you

know what, put your right hand down too,

it just doesn't feel right.

You can leave it there, because I'm going

to crop that out, yeah, that's better, that's

really cool.

I'm going to change it back to colour,

and again, if I'm shooting raw, it means

I can go in any direction that I

want to, right, so it doesn't really matter.

For me though, I often just sometimes like

to see what's going on here.

Now, I'm shooting at f4, I want them

both in focus, I'm at 100 ISO, I've

got so much room to breathe here, why

wouldn't I shoot at maybe something like f11

or something like that, because I can.

One second here, yep, I've got detail everywhere,

I've got the shadow there, he's looking really

cool.

Now, if you can Lisa, just look at

me for a second, okay good, and okay,

do you want to turn your face left

mate, good, too much, come back, good.

Alright, remember how we said that focus is

one third in and two thirds back, so

I'm going to focus maybe on his shoulder,

and we should get everything in focus.

Okay, ready on the count of three, just

look at me guys, one, two, three, that's

awesome.

Oh, that's so good, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm just thinking actually, the more I think

about this, actually I think she needs her

face off, the head off the wall.

Her hair's blending into that shadow, which is

not a problem, I just feel like we

can do better.

So, tilt your head, but don't let it

touch, I need a bit of breathing space

there, so Lisa, bring your face forward, good,

that's better.

Gorgeous, alright, ready, alright, wonderful, hold it there.

Dylan, turn your face a touch to the

right, so get rid of that highlight on

your cheek, that's it, there you go, ready,

one, two, three, perfect, awesome.

Some cool stuff guys, wow, check it out.

It's beautiful, you look so cool baby.

Alright, so this is, again, I could be

here all day, I've got to do it,

damn it.

Dylan, over here mate, it's just too good

to not do.

Alright, so I'm going to get you right

in that little pocket of light just before

that shadow.

Now, I want you to squat down like

we had done during our posing demonstrations, so

come a little bit closer to me.

Now, turn your body that way, so your

front knee is going to be up, yep,

see, I love that, you knew exactly what

I wanted.

If you can, bring that knee further down,

that one further up, there you go, and

you can sort of rest your backside on

there, cool man.

What I love about this guys is that

the location is telling me what to do.

I've got the shadows repeating on the wall,

I've got the highlight on the ground looking

really, really cool, so let's now shoot in

black and white.

Again, I'm shooting in raw, it means I

can do anything afterwards, but check out this.

Yeah, I love the idea of cutting into

him there like that.

It's like the foot should either be all

in or all out.

Now, I'm just wondering whether that highlight and

shadow on the ground is going to be

correct for this shot.

I almost think not.

See, now I'm getting on the same sort

of plane as him.

Yeah, that's looking a lot better.

Now, I'm just trying to work out.

See, the other cool thing is with the

modern cameras, you can shoot with different compositions.

So, I'm just looking at maybe if there's

one that suits me better, like the 5x4,

so I can isolate the area that I

want.

And I think at 5x4 vertical, I think

it's where we need to be.

Yeah, that little angle on him is cool,

and then cropping in is awesome.

Awesome, dude, hold it there.

Good.

If you can now, your right hand, just

do that for me.

So, your right hand, bring it up to

your face, just like that.

Awesome.

Good, hold it there.

Yeah, that's so cool.

Very masculine, that quality of light, and then

getting him to squat down looks really cool

too.

Turn your face a touch to the right

there, man.

Good, hold it there.

This time, I'm going to go back to

a 2x3 composition.

Turn your face more to the right, mate.

See how his ear is subtly coming into

the sun?

Come back a bit this way.

Stop, there you go.

Awesome, man, hold it.

That's so good.

Yeah, I love that.

You know what, stay where you are.

Let's see some foreground background.

Lisa, I am going to get you just

here, but I need you to sink down

so I can isolate you underneath this area.

So, not so much there, so think of

it more like this, but then turn around

this way.

Turn, turn, turn, turn.

Keep on turning your body.

That's it.

You know what, it might...

Oh, it's just skimming, isn't it?

We're thinking...

Okay, do that for me.

Come around here.

I want you to face the wall.

I'll see if I can crop the awkwardness.

This might be going nowhere, but we'll see.

So, just bring your face really close that

way.

That's good.

And then bring up the dress and bring

it right in.

That's good, perfect.

Okay, okay.

So, chin up there for me, Lisa.

Yeah, I love that.

Good, good, good, good.

That's cool, man.

That's more dramatic now, that's good.

Chin up a little bit, eyes down at

him.

Awesome, hold it there.

Now, Dylan, put your hand down.

Just try that one.

Down.

Now, this time, stay where you are.

Lisa, your eyes are going to be at

me.

Turn your face this way, mate.

Turn that way.

Good.

So, I'm getting him to sort of change

the angle, but I'm going to isolate Lisa.

And it's going to look really cool.

So, Lisa, no smile.

Just really cool, very dramatic, beautiful.

A little bit more.

Gorgeous.

Let's just do one in color here so

you can see what I'm doing.

Awesome, hold it there.

Count of three.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Yeah, relax.

How cool is that?

Beautiful, love it.

Let's see what else we find.
