Hello friends, how are you?

How are things going?

Welcome to the second part of the off

-camera of Yasmina and Diego.

Remember that in the previous chapter I had

told you a little about the images or

some of the best images that I took

of them in the pre-wedding session that

we did like several weeks ago.

In today's video I want to tell you

not only about some good photos that I

took and I'm going to show you, but

also about the photos that I like the

least.

And remember that in the previous chapter I

was telling you something like that I was

starting to be a little bored or not

quite sure with the result or with the

results of some formulas that I had been

doing in previous years, but that now many

colleagues were using that same type of formulas,

with which I was already noticing that my

work was being diluted, that is, the patterns

that I was using did not convince me

because they are already a little dull.

What I mean is that in this video

I am going to start by showing you

the photos that I like the least and

finally I will finish with my favorite.

Let's start with the first of all, with

this image.

Why didn't it convince me?

Because I have already used many times the

same pattern of the girl laughing on the

one hand, the boy laughing on the other,

and in the end it is the same

all the time, right?

It's like it's starting to get a little

boring to have to tell her and now

start screaming and have to tell him now

start screaming.

The location where I did the pre-wedding

session is a set of offices, it is

an industrial set, with which, despite the fact

that this image works more or less compositively,

you can see that it is too noticeable

that it is a set of offices or

that they are the stairs or that it

is something related to offices or with a

company, with which it does not finish convincing

me, especially because the background in which Diego

is is a metal background and everyone knows

that this is not quite an attractive place,

right?

But what bothers me the most, mainly, is

the pose, the pose of them that is

already widely used and does not convince me,

okay?

We are going to go for another image,

a little better than the previous one, but

it does not convince me either.

I am talking about this image and, well,

what I tried first is simply that, well,

that Yasmina and Diego were in the same

angle or in the same, so to speak,

box of frames, right?

In the squares that you see in the

background, I tried that at least in that

vertical line, between those two lines, they were

there, that they did not move, that is,

that at least they were there.

For my taste, Yasmina works perfectly, she is

perfectly with her puppy, there, cuddly, all this

very well, but Diego does not work.

I mean, that pose of, how to say

it, Diego, right?

That he is straight, that he looks to

one side, it is more of an editorial

line, of fashion, than not of a couple,

than in a couple's report as such.

I mean, it is fine in a report

to intersperse photographs in which the couple kisses

and others in which the couple does not

kiss and is more a little bit posing,

but of course, this set of images, like

this one, like the one I am showing

you, is a bit rigid, it is a

bit, the boy there, like looking at the

horizon, does not finish kissing me.

Notice that despite the fact that this image

is much more classic or much more normal,

but I see it more attractive than the

previous one.

At least here there is a connection between

the two, it may be that compositively it

does not end up being fucking crazy, but

at least both are perfectly connected and surely

if we ask the couple which of these

two they really prefer, surely they will stay

with the second one, okay?

Although sometimes that does not quite convince me,

I mean, the opinion of the couple sometimes,

okay?

And I would even prefer this one, in

which you can see the puppy and see

how they play with both hands, right?

I think it seems more interesting.

Or even, I would almost prefer this one,

in which I play with them at two

heights, in which I asked, for example, Jasmina

to sit down, to lie down, taking advantage

of what were some stairs that were going

down, what was the area or the wall

next to the stairs, that we have this

wall, as you are seeing, and I took

advantage of that, I tried to make Jasmina's

body mimic, rest, in the architecture that I

had chosen to make the image, with which,

simply, well, Jasmina, as you are seeing, I

placed her there, I tried that, I mean,

that her hair was, or her mane was

down to, I mean, to my side, to

give it that feminine touch, and now I

did tell Diego, for example, to snuggle, to

play with his puppy and that, above all,

that, I mean, that Jasmina, well, to look

at them so that there was that little,

like that little connection, right?

And now I would like to talk to

you about other images, a little better than

the previous ones, because, remember, right?

That what I had told you, that in

this video I was going to start with

photographs that do not convince me so much,

I was going to go up little by

little and, at the same time, I was

going to go little by little showing you

images that I would like more.

I'm talking about this image, it's very simple,

the truth is that I didn't hide anything

strange or anything that would make you say,

wow, that's crazy, but look how important it

is to have a, I mean, a couple

that is, I mean, that it is so

easy to make images and that their physical

appearance is so, I mean, it helps us

so much that sometimes it seems that you

take any image and everything looks good, right?

Well, not more or less, right?

But look, I mean, it's just asking the

girl to stand there, the sun was just

about to set and I told her to

look that way.

Just, and notice that Diego is right behind

her, really a little hidden, he's completely out

of focus.

Something I never usually do, or that I

don't usually do very often, is focus on

the foreground and the background, because I prefer

to focus on the background and the foreground

is out of focus.

Why?

So that the look is directs directly to

the background and we gain that depth in

the image, but in this case it is

that I went directly to her, I focused

on her, I just asked her to look

over there and I liked how that hat,

that circle is perfectly working compositively, her hair

a little bit on one side, her eyes,

it's all.

Then I fell into the error of a

formula that I have been using a lot

lately and that I assure you that I

am not going to do it for a

long time, which is to make the mane

be in front of the couple's faces.

You have seen me do it or publish

it in the last month and a half,

like a few times, so I'm not going

to want to waste time explaining a lot

how it is done because it is the

formula that I have been using.

For that and for more reasons, I had

told you that I am going through a

small crisis about which photos are attractive, which

photos, I repeat, which photos I am not

contributing more, because there comes a time when

sometimes differentiating or taking different photos constantly is

practically impossible, there is no human mind that

is capable of that, but at least I

like to renew myself a little and it

is true that the formula that I have

been using or several formulas or patterns that

I have been using in the last two

years right now seem repetitive to me, so

I want to take one more step and

the one with the mane or this image

is the one that I was telling you

that I was a little bit repeating it.

To finish, as the last image and I

think it is my favorite almost because of

the session, I am talking about this image

and the truth is that I would like

to have the first of all, that is,

if I like it, it is because there

is a force, there is a complicity between

the two and there is also movement and

there is also something like elements that go

with me as usual and they are not

obvious at all, I mean, if we start

talking, for example, at the beginning what I

should tell you is that I chose a

neutral background to highlight the couple, as you

are going to see or as you are

seeing I repeated the moment of the hat

as a multitude of times because I wanted

that, I wanted him to throw it to

me, I wanted him to throw it to

me and that the hat would go up

a little above their faces and that it

would cover their eyes, that was for me

the main issue, you already know the whole

issue of the eyes, with which they repeated

it like 20 times at least.

I used 20 millimeters, 20 millimeters because I

wanted it to cover everything, okay?

And to them, of course, to them by

leaving them right in the center and so

with the 20 millimeters when I raised the

hat or the hat it would deform a

little more everything, okay?

And I would have more opportunities by having

a larger frame, by having a larger photo,

because I would have more chances of being

able to capture that hat, okay?

So then I repeated and repeated and repeated

until the hat was finally in the place

that I wanted.

When I was throwing the hat, Yasmina started

looking at me, but I told her no,

I wanted only Diego to look at me,

that his face was for me, but Yasmina

wanted it to be supported, super soft, in

what was the face of Leo, right?

Because it seemed really interesting to me, or

he played better and did not seem so

photodeposed, you understand me?

And as a last point, as something important,

is that I put a flash on the

back.

Why did I put a flash on the

back?

I did not put the flash to bounce

it to the wall, but the flash directly

for them and it was surely an octave

of power.

And why did I do this?

Because the light was very, very flat, very,

very basic, that is, it did not have

a stroke of force that caught it, right?

That is, so I put the flash for

what?

First, to separate the subject from the background,

that is, to separate the couple from the

background, and third and second.

And second, it was to create that little

silhouette that you are seeing out there, illuminated,

that gave it a certain strength.

Notice that when I put the flash bomb,

it came out by pure chance, I am

not going to tell you that I had

studied it.

That little triangle came out that you see

of light just behind, that is thanks to

the flash, because when there was no flash,

that did not appear, which seemed super interesting

to me.

In addition, as you already know, when using

flash, what it allows me, it will help

me to perfectly freeze the moment as such.

So that's it, that was the concept and

the idea and how we finally executed the

image that you are seeing and it is

one of the images that I find most

interesting of the session, along with some images

that I showed you in the previous video,

which were images in black and white, as

it could be this or as it can

be this.

So that's all, friends, I hope you liked

it.

I don't know if I've run a lot

in the video, the truth is that I

think I've gone a little crazy, but I'm

sure I've explained myself well, right?

So nothing else, friends, so far everything, so

far this second part of the off-camera

of my dear friends, Yasmina and Diego.

The truth is that I'm already dying because

I arrived that month of July, heat, Zaragoza,

because on top of that it is in

my city, heat, Zaragoza, as I tell you,

let's hope that the virus, let's hope, I

don't even know what to think, it has

already gone a little bit, ending this shit,

right?

That I am, see you later.

Well friends, what do I leave you?

Ala, until next time!
