I think I may have a pocket wizard probably died. I love even suggesting just now the hand like that looking profile I want start there that looks nice so you play around with that? That was really, really beautiful matthew quick question yes question from r d what white balance is matthew start with on camera flash or the color temperature depending on the club complexion of the model so the sure what white balance do you start on with on camera flash or the color temperature? One depending on the complexion of the model no that's where? No matter what the compassion the model at all we want a neutral starting point, so we're shooting with the shooting or the white balance on this camera and we are using the color checker passport and getting a neutral setting and making our color in post so we do all that stuff later on we had that color checker to make sure we get a neutral setting and then from there we can tweak and ad for at that point let's goto work less goto work perfect. That same shot that profile there, there that's what we want that's what we want beautiful, beautiful nice there. There there we are there we are. Lovely, lovely. Change it all together for me now, right on me right on me just like that past nice that's. Nice right there. That's beautiful, nice way are wear. We are perfect.

And that energy, that playful energy I'm going back to being full again, so now I see it and give me a little hop there that's possible, you tell me somewhere I'm gonna see what you can do here. I want the energy, even this playful and the energy without the jump. I want the energy. We're going back to the eighty five that's. Fine. I thought I know just like, uh ten inch heels you have here. Give me more that just give me the energy. Just the energy that we see the mouth open, like here like this left image image here.

Thanks Matthew for the super informative courses. I'm from Thailand and I'm very impress with the way you speak. It is super clear and very easy to understand. Your answers to each questions are extremely inspirational. I think you are the best teacher on photographing so far on Creative Live. Each of your answers and information are very motivational and very thoughtful. Thanks again for this great Live broadcast. You are a great teacher and a very nice warm person as well.

This course has been an awesome experience. I have learned so much about the process of beauty and fashion photography. Matthew takes the viewer through the preliminary thought process. He not only covers the technical aspects but also the importance of the photographic team itself--the stylist, makeup artist, model and photo assistants. The photographer plus the team equals magic. I do not use the term amazing lightly. This man is AMAZING and INSPIRING! Thanks to Matthew, I feel confident that I will find my own vision.
