All language subtitles for Episode 79º Patreon Getting ready Gallery

Hello friends, how are you?

How is the week going?

Here we are with a thousand fronts open.

The truth is that we are starting to

be really happy because we are starting to

have a load of work, we are starting

to be busy and that is huge, right?

I mean, going back to the previous life

in which we had work practically until we

got bored, right?

But hey, in fact, work is conditioning that

Patreon will finally be there by February of

last year, we never thought that there would

be a pandemic and the idea was to

nourish Patreon with content that we were doing

weekly or the work that we were doing

at that precise moment.

What I mean is that I wanted to

share on Patreon or the reason why I

created Patreon, sorry, was to constantly share the

work that was being done constantly.

That's why in the previous chapter we were

talking about how we took an exclusive photo,

right?

But in today's video I wanted to talk

to you about the preparations that I made

or the getting ready that I prepared for

the girlfriend that we photographed last weekend.

That's why in today's video I wanted to

show you the whole visual journey since I

started or since I entered through the door

of Marta's house, that is, from the wedding

that I photographed from the moment I entered

until I left, that is, everything that would

be preparatory and that will help me a

little bit to tell you how we work,

how we take these photos and finally I'm

going to show you my 10 favorites that

are going to be the ones that I'm

going to publish on social networks to continue

creating movement because now are dates that I

don't know about you but we are receiving

quite a few emails or quite a few

proposals from couples who are going to get

married next year, so things are starting to

get hot.

So I won't entertain you anymore, I'll show

you around the gallery and then we'll continue,

okay?

Well, as I had told you, this is

the gallery that I wanted to show you.

In this gallery that you are going to

see is the getting ready.

I mean, all the images that you are

going to see were captured from the moment

I entered Marta's house and finally we left

her just the moment she was leaving with

her car for the ceremony, for the church,

okay?

So let's go a little bit or I'm

going to show you a little bit what

it was or what the whole visual journey

has been since I started or since I

arrived until I left, okay?

Or until I left the house.

Simply what I should tell you is that

despite the fact that the ceremony was at

12 and a half, I remember that I

arrived at the bride's house at 8 and

a half in the morning, at most 9.

For me it was very important or for

me it is very important, not only in

this wedding, but in the rest of the

weddings, to arrive with enough time to get

to know the people, to empathize.

It's not to be a nice person, but

to know who they are, to know who

the mother is, to know what's going on.

Notice that photographs like this, I'm sure that

neither his mother will like it, nor his

girlfriend will like it, to begin with, because

they are not wearing makeup and all this,

but I like to be there.

I like to start understanding what is happening,

what is the role of each person.

I think it is very important to me

and in a way it helps me.

There are things that I must start by

saying and it is that when I arrived

the day before, because remembering that the day

before we went through the church, through the

hacienda, through the bride's house, in this case,

where I was going to get dressed to

know where I was going to put on

makeup and all this.

It is something that we like to do,

right?

And I must say that this family, from

a high social class, or quite high.

Normally, when we work with such a high

social class, sometimes they only tell us what

is the corner where we can take photos

and we can no longer move from there.

In this case, as I tell you, my

mother, my surprise, was when she told us

that what place, Víctor and Erika, do you

think is the best for Marta to put

on makeup?

With which, well, imagine, that was a joy

and well, and then you understand that, despite

the fact that those clients are from a

very high social class, they are going to

trust you and that makes you grow or

makes you believe that things are going to

go well, right?

Arriving with so much time, as I told

you, is for these things, to play calmly,

to know how we can work, all these

things and, above all, so as not to

focus only on taking photos of makeup or

hairdressing as such.

Arriving with so much time means that the

girls, as you can see, were, for example,

talking and that I can tell her, hey,

what do you think if we go for

a walk with your sister or with one

of your sisters to be able to capture

something like that, right?

That is, that is why it allows me

to take this type of images and know

what things are going to happen in addition

to the makeup and you are already seeing

that, well, in what I was focusing on,

right?

Not only properly in moments as simple as

this, like these, sorry, but in this type

of images that I have shown you or

this type of images, right?

I'm looking for something more than a photo

like this.

I'm looking for something more creative, right?

We could say that this is normal, this

is the moment that I arrive, for example,

with the wedding planner, with the bouquet, with

all these stories, of course, I'm going to

take pictures of the bouquet, but I'm looking

for more of this, right?

Something more creative.

Of course, I want you to understand that

I have already told you many times to

everyone, for me it is as important this

as this or this or family photos as

you will see later, right?

And as you can see, well, you are

already seeing that I took a lot of

pictures of the bouquet for the simple reason

that I also wanted to surprise both the

wedding planner and the one who designed, for

example, the bouquet of flowers, who was a

pretty important person at the wedding, so we

were for this.

Simply tell you that the material that I

carry with me, in this case, was a

35 mm, an 85 mm, this image was

actually taken with the 85, a 45 mm

with which I did, for example, this, okay?

And in the backpack I carried a 28

mm that I did not use in this

case, okay?

But we could say that the preparations were

taken with a 35 mm, 45 mm and

an 85 mm and as you have already

seen, I carried the flash out of the

camera all the time, prepared in case I

had to create something beautiful, okay?

You see that the house gave a lot

of creative possibilities and I was all the

time both in the garden and inside, not

only capturing the bride as such, but for

example, the sister with her boy, I was,

for example, photographing this, what you are seeing,

and of course, the father, who was a

super important person for the bride and especially

for the family, he went to do a

bit of cycling and when he came back,

I took advantage of him both when he

was leaving, notice that this was around here,

when he was leaving, right?

He was preparing little things, like when he

finally came back, right?

For me this was, or it is essential

to tell those parallel stories that happen around.

Of course I'm going to focus on, on

doing the makeup, right?

But I'm also going to focus on the

people.

I already know that I am not a

photographer specialist in portraits, or in portraits like

these, right?

Sorry, in which, well, it is the grandmother

of the bride, a grandmother who has, has

a super important weight in the family, when

I say very important it is that you

cannot believe it, she was like the boss

of the situation and quickly I understood it

and I started to take pictures of her.

I mean, if we are in this moment,

which is the usual, guys, I mean, girls,

it is not the usual, it is the

bride putting on makeup, what do we contribute?

Nothing new, right?

Well, let's see if we can scratch something

else, even if they are photos like these,

it gives me the same, okay?

But I want to do this, I want

to have the people around or who are

important to the bride, I want to have

them there, because, well, you are already seeing

it, right?

I mean, they are photos that are never

known.

You see that as I have told you,

I always had the flash ready in case

I had to create something interesting, okay?

But here we are.

This is the moment in which the bride,

in which the sister of the bride who

is getting dressed and her mother, well, helps

her, okay?

Well, that, well, I took advantage of it

a little bit to also have, to remember

parallel stories, okay?

With the 85 I took advantage, okay?

Here, well, we already have the previous moment

in which the bride was going to start

getting dressed.

Just tell you, right?

That the dress, the dress that both mother

and daughter have, is a dress of a

designer, one of the most important in Spain

or Europe, Teresa Helbig.

That dress, I don't know the price, but

it is quite high, believe me.

And the one of the mother of the

bride is also from the same designer, with

which I was interested in having both together

there, right?

Here we have for the bride, okay?

If you are thinking that these portraits are

something simple, I give you the reason, it

is true, they are simple, but these portraits,

in addition to for the bride, were shot

for the designer, because I am going to

send them to her, so that she has

them and can, that is, can publish them,

right?

You see that I am not vertical, right?

But the stories, some of the stories are

going to go vertically.

If the designer finally publishes or publishes some

of this, do you understand me?

You will see later that the photos that

I have chosen to publish in my feed

are not vertical, okay?

Because I don't think about that, that is

to say, I think about myself when I

am going to publish, but I also think

that I am going to distribute these photos

to another type of providers that may publish

them vertically.

I think I'm explaining myself, right?

In addition, you will have already noticed, just

below the image, here you have all the

...

I mean, the camera values in which they

were shot, in case you were a little

interested in seeing it, right?

First shots of what the dress was, of

what the girl was looking at, with veil,

without veil, with veil ...

Someone asked me the other day what is

the driving force of my ...

The driving force is mainly to tell the

story as it happens, at my own pace,

right?

That is, without worrying too much and without

having prepared any established script, because in a

wedding everything can jump out of the blue,

right?

What I do focus on a lot is

trying to get each of those photos that

I am taking in as many different perspectives

as possible.

In addition, I will always try to look

at this type of photos, in transition photos,

okay?

That is something that I want to say.

Transition photos mean photographing moments between moments.

Before the pose photos that you are going

to see now, I was focused on photographing

this type of moments, like this.

For me this is a transition photo, because

then you will see what photos come.

Okay?

This is the moment of the bouquet.

In Catalonia, which is a region of Spain,

this Catalonia has a tradition in which it

is delivered, or in which the best friends

of the groom deliver a bouquet to the

bride, okay?

This was the moment of the bouquet.

This is another transition photo before this moment

arrives.

You are going to see that the photos

that I took here are in the most

editorial style of photography, sorry.

These types of images are in the most

editorial style of magazine of the heart.

Frontal flash, because the family wanted to take

their family photos in this precise corner, because

they have Galician roots, or they have roots

from a Spanish region, and then they wanted

to do them here, in this precise corner.

And I had to put the flash at

full power, and so that everyone will look

good.

But, as I have told you, my partners

or my future clients, not only do I

sell them, that they are going to have

creative photographs, but they are also going to

have all these types of photographs, okay?

I'm going to go on, I'm going to

go on, which are a bit boring, possibly

for you, but it seemed reasonable to me

that you saw them.

Here we go back to the usual rhythm,

where I want to be, trying to publish

more or less interesting things, as you are

seeing now, okay?

I keep moving forward, and this is almost

the moment of the exit, right?

Here I did worry.

You see that here a very important moment

begins for me, which is full of transition

photos, I mean, I have always said it,

and it is that at the moment that

the bride leaves her house to go to

the ceremony, at that moment I still work

harder and I worry, above all, in capturing

everything that happens in those moments or in

those off moments, okay?

As you are seeing.

And in fact, I love this photo, it

seems really beautiful to me, very feminine, subtle,

or this one in black and white, which

will be the one that I finally publish,

okay?

And this one too, I love it.

A portrait inside the car, vertically, but this

is for me, eh?

Another one in color, because I had my

doubts, I think that in black and white,

clearly, no, I think it is really better

in black and white, because the fact that

we don't see his eyes, those hands work

better, I'm talking about the photo on the

left, eh?

The one in black and white, I think

that photo is really better and that's why

it seems more interesting to me, right?

And the last one is this one, a

flash that still ...

Well, you are seeing it, right?

I put a flash of the milk, because

otherwise there was no way to compensate the

exterior with the interior.

I always, always ask my girlfriends that I

like to go with them in the car,

from the hotel or from their house to

the ceremony, because I like to capture this

type of moments, what happens with the father,

what happens with things, and when I talk

about this type of moments or I talk

about this type of photos, that you may

have seen some similar to this one, right?

I mean, that's why this is fundamental for

me, right?

So that's all, little friends, okay?

These are the ...

Ah, sorry, sorry, sorry, I'm running out of

time, I want to show you my photos,

my favorite photos, the ones that I am

going to publish and I am going to

explain why.

My photos are these, this one, because it

is a transition photo, this one because it

is also a transition photo, this one because

it is also a transition photo, right?

As such, well, this is makeup but captured

in another way, okay?

A different perspective, another transition photo, a moment

like this, okay?

Super feminine, okay?

The exit from the house, this one, and

this one at the end.

Of course, if you look at this one

and this one, it is practically ...

it seems to be the same, it is

the same cut, and it takes a few

seconds between one and the other.

So what did I do?

Or what did I do?

I'm going to open with this one on

Instagram, that is, this is the cover photo,

and later I will start shooting with this

one, with this one, after this one will

come this one, this one, this one, this

one, no, sorry, this one, this one, and

finally I will finish with this one, okay?

So that's it, friends, this is the gallery.

I think there are 143 photos, the ones

I have selected.

Many of them are already edited and others

are missing the last retouch.

Well, that's all, friends.

I hope you liked this.

You see that it was a very, very

interesting session.

The truth is that I enjoyed it as

a child, as I have already told you,

because the getting ready is always one of

those parts of the wedding that I like

the most, because, well, I can work perfectly,

I can develop myself as a photographer, and

in many of the occasions very interesting photos

arrive, right?

So that's it, friends.

I hope you liked this.

See you very soon.

See you with another chapter.

Good luck with the weddings and keep hiring

them, bastards!
