Where do you hire models these days? It used to be that you could just go on modelmayhem but that shit's been dead for years. Presumably there's hoes on instagram or whatever, but you can't even search using # anymore, so that's no good either. So what's the scoop?

a guy asking you to come to his "studio" for "photos" is like the oldest cliche for getting murderraped as a women.Take photos of ugly guys, it's way harder and you will build skills. Get gud. Make some deal where you do most photos the way they want it (for them) and then do a few photos the way you want them (for your portfolio).
>>4473452The workaround is to tell them to bring their boyfriend / my girlfriend will be there etc. rapists always work alone.t. full nude shoot in two weeks
Life hack : get a beautiful gf so you have an always available free model
>>4473452pro tip when you work with guys: you can murderrape them after the shoot, too.

What lightning set up and editing achieved this look? I’m somewhat new to photography. I got a great camera canon R5ii and the 35mm 1.8 lens. I’d like to learn from you guys how I could tweak my photos in studio to resemble this. Photoshop? Dodge and burn?
>>4473316Thanks. I actually prefer the digital look.
>>4473313On second thought If you're using digital you may be able to get away with a single softbox top right, feathered, actually. Previous setup would be needed for film. It looks like there was some lightening around his face. If you look you'll see where the background is brighter on his profile.
>>4473313Well first you need Oscar Isaac. Then you need some soft lighting from the top right of your shot and maybe a reflector in the bottom left to reduce shadow. You would also need a longer focal length than 35mm to do a tight portrait without much facial distortion. The most important thing is having Oscar Isaac though.
>>4473313Looks like ai slop
>>4473497Good analysis of the light setup, thanks anon.>>4473501Get your eyes checked.

The tutor came in and, to introduce ourselves, he asked what cameras we had at home. Everyone was saying the latest Canon model or top end DSLRs. I was trying not to say mine. But the tutor realised I hadn't said anything.>And you, Anon, what is your camera?>U-um, it's a Pentax >...>A Pentax ist DS... >A what?>Pentax... it's for interchangeable K-mount lenses... I have a whole ecosystem of them...>Um...>B-but I have a Canon EOS 1100D with a zoom kit lens.>Um. Yeah. Please use that instead for the assignments and exercises. Anyway...Did I fuck up?

fake as fuck,all tutors are happy if you used more than an iPhone, DLR in auto mode.
Just take photos of AI slop and you too can become a master photographer.

Fantastic. Please post negatives of NFTs and get them enlarged in your next thread.
>>4473391great idea. i could even shoot them on slide film so they can be projected and viewed against a light
Have you ever gotten a strong emotional response after viewing a specific phot, like you would in a movie ? Or maybe going to an exhibition or reading a book ? Or is photography just "pretty cool" at best ?Pic related is the first response I got when searching " best art photography ever" online. While it's really good and impressive, I can't really say it makes me feel anything in my gut.Post pics that make you feel something, inspiring photographers/books etc.
>>4468813> To me your problem is the lack of punishments for bad behaviours.Doesn't really work like that though. Some countries have very harsh punishment and low crime rate, high punishment high crime rate (see France with drugs), low punishment low crime rate and low punishment high crime rate. The harshness of punishment isn't correlated to the amount of crime commited.Also you fail to take into account the fact that Paris is 2 times more populated then Taipei, plus all the tourists, Paris being one of the most visited cities in the world with London. It already attracts all kinds of people, but you also need to consider all the people who came to France because (one way or the other) of colonization. I think it's a small price to pay for all the atrocities France did for centuries.Beyond that on the subject of stealing, it's mostly a cultural thing I think. People in Europe just consider that things left in the wild just belong to everyone. You just don't live things outside. Even if you go to some random village in the countryside with less then <1000hab. if you live your shit out it will get stolen. My headcanon is that a lot of people are just cleptomanic, even if they don't need the money they take it. Also I visited Taipei a few months back and I found it really nice
>>4468860>high punishment high crime rate>like France Yeah you have no idea what you are talking about you should stop I'm not reading past that. You are probably a stupid brownie that thinks France deserved it because of colonisation or some retarded take like that
>>4468831He was ahead of the curve, that's why he got so much hate.
Found this cool picture by Cartier-Bresson of an american soldier returning to his mom. This one does it for me and I think it would be a good conclusion to this thread, hopefully
Yes, it's art. I'm not a photographer, I'm a drawing artist, but I come here for inspiration.Anybody can take a picture, just like anybody can doodle. The hard part is perfecting your craft and having a compelling/unique vision that makes you a recognizable artist.
>I need a camera bag>search "camera backpack">234,484+ different bags to choose from. Why is like this with fucking bags?
>>4459085wtf how did you get this picture of me
>>4468438
I'm sick of sling bags over the shoulder, so I'm thinking of getting the Spider Holster for when I want the camera accessible.Or a waist bag like the Mountainsmith Tour Lumbar Pack when walking around. On the picture, the straps are optional if you're carrying less than 10lbs.All the popular bag brands, Peak Design, Wandrd, Wotancraft, have sling bags that could easily convert to waist bag. Sling bag is the current youthful fashion. I think waist carry will make a comeback, per the usual two-decade cycle.
camera cubes are legit the stupidest idea i've ever seenif i'm bringing a "camera bag" i don't want to have to fish a smaller compartment out of my pack, unzip that cube somewhere stable, and only then do i get to my polar filter or a microfiber wipeif i'm carrying a "camera" bag, it needs to provide me with access to what i need, when i need it
>>4468105You think you don't need a blower because you don't do anything interesting enough to warrant it. Try getting a piece of lint visible past f/4 on your sensor after a lens swap on top of a mountain. Oh wait, that'll never happen to you, because you only shoot building corners with your one lens. You could've just bought a compact but you're a LARPing hipster faggot who needed a Zf.
went out to take some photos
>>4472331>grey slopbased and underexposedlearn to meter
>>4472713i think thatt it almost looks like a cartoon or print someone has made rather than a photo. it's got a kinda simplistic feeling.also the ultrawide crop makes it look like a desktop backgroundare you the bird guy that likes to take pics of seagulls from /rpt/?
>>4472785Nah, I'm just a random guy. Saw a blank bird face and a blank grey sky and thought they could work together nicely.>also the ultrawide crop makes it look like a desktop backgroundOr could be printed as a bookmark.
Thanks for sharing, anon. I enjoyed the photos.

Lately I have seen a lot of studios offering this kind of service now. It looks a good way to make some extra money. People use different kinds of setups and I'm trying to figure it out the best one for a better result. So far, I think a macro flash is the best option. Also, after the photo of the eye is taken, an intense photoshop edit is required to clean up the eye and ingest it in a template to achieve the final picture as this one. What are your thoughts about it? Let's talk.
>>4472400You would know about dilation, triggered troon tard.
>>4472270>servicewhat service is this, exactly?
>>4472406MI6 probably
Anybody got that image, of a firework reflecting off the iris of a woman. I tried the net, found only AI slop. I remember seeing it on 4chan /p/. It was shot at about 45 degrees to the left, and the background was a cool blue, like what you see in evening or early morn. It was zoomed in, so only the eyes and a bit of background was visible.
>>4472325Green-eyed chicks are insane in bed.
largeformat chads, monorail users specifically, what is your tripod setup? I have a chunky set of legs, and currently i've just been bolting it straight to the monorail which works, but as you can imagine is limiting in terms of any sort of adjustments, outside of fiddling with the legs. I guess, what heads have you found work for your big chunky cameras? Looking at one of picrel but i don't want to buy a dud.
>>4472010Op here I basically kinda felt the same but anons provided some good suggestions, basically it sounds like you just want a 3 way so get the 3 way. I’m gonna look on eBay like that other anon suggested
I've got a great head (2 way old manfrotto with hex platform). Problem is my tripod, also manfrotto. Bought it from some video guy out in the suburbs. One leg won't properly lock, the supports' inside-beam ball locks are shot. Can someone recommend me a good tripod, just the tripod? I'm a Canacuck so it has to be something like a reliable model that is plentiful used. My budget is very small.
>>4472194Used gitzo carbon like in pic>>4472142They're absolutely rock solid.
>>4472194>>4472203Also canacuck here, we have benro at my local shops which is basically a gitzo clone for cheaper. If you can swing for a gitzo even used is fine, go for it, but I’m very happy with my chunky leg benro, it holds up the 4x5 monorail without any sweat, solid and steady.
>>4472300I'm usually transporting the set up by bike, so weight and bulk aren't big concerns.
What are your setups? Which products can you recommend? And wtf are the bastards from negative supply snorting to justify their pricing?speaking of: Does anyone have the STLs from tonecarrier? I am a poor bastard and want to try them out. other than that, I had no luck with the free printables you find on thingyverse etc.
>>4467036Zach? Put your name back on
>>4467038What exactly are you accusing me of?
>>4466199>yes, everyone shoots macro
I wanna start DSLR-scanning. I've always been using my N75 and developing at home. But now i want a DSLR on a budget anyways. I want to get a D3200 and a vintage 55mm with the PK-13 Extension. Will this give me satisfying results /p/? I am an amateur still, go easy on me
>>4464841I don’t have a photo of my setup but it’s nothing fancy. I basically repurposed an old big cube 3d printer that had a busted hotend so it’s my adjustable copy stand now which works out well. I’ve got an EOS R with the laowa 100mm macro (had this combo for ages not just for film digitizing) and some bright backlight. My laptop is right there and I do a tethered session while also fine adjusting the printer from it. Pretty fun, can adjust heights easy for 35mm and 120. You mentioned 3d printing, my film holders are printed as well and work just fine (this one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6177136) but need a pretty well calibrated printer cause tight tolerances. It’s not a perfect setup my light could be better (just some generic light panel from Amazon) but for black and white it works out pretty good anyway. >>4464842Digital ice only works on colour film what if the homie is shooting BW
>some of the greatest photographs of human history were, on a technical level, blurry, grainy pieces of shitTell me again why you need edge-to-edge sharpness, 100 megapixels, and the ability to shoot at 124,000ISO?
>>4464533>Tell me again why you need edge-to-edge sharpness, 100 megapixels, and the ability to shoot at 124,000ISO?Because i need a crop of a corner at night like your pic related
>>4464679It’s the deep state trying to prevent you from enjoying your photography hobby anon
>No other portraits posted>Just another argument threadFaggots.
>>4464533There is a difference between highest-circulation of reference photos of historical figures, and optimal portraits. Certain photos carry memetic value and get spread more than others, despite being technically inferior
>>4464533tech specs are the refuge of the autistic mind. real photographers just go out and shoot. autistic gear enthusiast go online and post in forums.
Please critique me. I am an amateur photographer, looking to get better. Here is a still life I took photos of today.
>>4470647>but I don't particularly like it.That's the first good photo in this thread.I just don't understand why you added pubes on top of the rotten apple core?
>>4472608Why is a center framed and overly vignetted apple core with random shit above it a good picture?
>>4472611To me, there's something unsettling about it. I shitted on the random pubes, but they actually add to this fact. I know it's a rotted apple core, but with the B&W it becomes more ambiguous. What is it made of? The bottom looks like some sort of open animalistic maw. The flesh - is it really just rotten fruit or something worse?It's entirely subjective, but seriously, this image evokes an emotional response from me. The others were just random objects arranged by an unskilled hand.
>>4466628These are quite good op, I was listening to led zeppelin while looking at them and suddenly got a vision of these same still life’s but with tomato sauce drizzled over everything. The symbolism alone yet alone the splash of red would really add something.
>>4472613I am >>4470883And I agree with you. That photo is extremely disgusting and unsettling. I think that's what OP wanted to achieve with that photo. It got an emotional response from me so it surely worked.
