Day Two
During summer we went down to Inverloch & Shallow Inlet with Ana for a beach photoshoot. These tutorials show you how Peter works on location at the beach, finding the light and using the sand as a natural reflector. You will see his tricks to keep a model moving and the importance of having a secluded beach not only for the look of the shot but to make the model comfortable on location. We hope you enjoy this shoot!

You’re using a medium format camera? Which one ?
I was using the Hasselblad X1D ii
I love to see you in action doing beach shoots !!!
Can’t wait to see more beach shoots this year
Thanks heaps, more coming soon 🙂 we’re in winter now but I’d love to do a winter beach shoot
Love this video. Those photos of Ana have been some of my favorites of yours and I’m really happy you shared the BTS of it. Thanks!
Thanks so much, so happy to hear you enjoyed it
I am so jealous of your beaches you have there in Australia :D.
Love this outside shoot and the work with your recent models like Ana an Meika.
Its very helpful when you explain where the light is coming from and how to move the model to change it. The hint with the soft shadow from the first video…would never thought about this. But it makes perfect sense.
I have already learned a lot about lightning from your tutorials. And this shoot with Ana is a nice addition to the studio work.
She does have those “i kill you” eyes and you emphasize them in a perfect way.
The world needs more photographers like you.
With love from Germany

That’s awesome, thank you so much Martin, I really appreciate it and am happy you’re learning lots from the tutorials
Hi Peter
When you start shooting with the HC100, it seems I hear autofocusing noise ?
My knowledge was that only orange dot HC lenses can autofocus on the X1D, and your HC 100 is not an orange dot ?
I only own an orange dot HC100 🙂
Thank you Peter, it’s clear now
A stunning collection, love the exposure and the use of the sand, the shape of the dunes, and grasses etc.
Can you explain here, or make a note to cover it in a future video more of what you mean when you say at 16:21 , “I normally find adjusting models hands to cover themselves, it doesn’t effect their eyes or their face, I find adjusting their feet, effects their face more than adjusting their hands.” Is there a here lesson in coaching a model (without micro-posing)
Thanks
KM
Thanks so much Kevin, happy to hear you enjoyed this series.
The comment I made about the hands & feet is just what I said 🙂 not to sure why but adjusting a models feet seems to change their face more. I’m currently trying to find someone to do a set of posing tutorials with that doesn’t already know my tricks, we may have found someone the other day so we will try film once lockdown ends here on Thursday
